Babel - unknown Statement of type "ForOfStatement"

React 17 app, with webpack/babel and all that.

When I try to build/run the app with oidc-client-ts, I get the following error.

There is a work around regarding adding a 7 year old babel plugin, which introduces a deprecated dependency on core-js. I wonder if the code could be adjusted to remove the ForOfStatement in lieu of different syntax maybe?

Compiled with problems:

ERROR in ./node_modules/oidc-client-ts/dist/esm/oidc-client-ts.js

Module build failed (from ./node_modules/babel-loader/lib/index.js):

Which version are you using, i do not intend to fix 7 year bugs in babel. Maybe you can patch that loop on your side. About which loop do we talk anyway?

Hi Pamapa, I managed to get it working "normally".

When I initially received this error, I went looking for a solution by web search, and found this comment; parcel-bundler/parcel#1269 (comment)
That lead me to the 7-year old thing.

This particular problem has been corrected more formally, by adding "@babel/plugin-transform-for-of" to the babel plugins section, and referencing "@babel/plugin-transform-for-of": "^7.24.7", in devDependencies in packages.json.

Specifically regarding your question on which bit of code was problematic, I don't know. Babel (and honestly the ts-js transpilation concept) is not something I'm well versed in.
