TypeScript Version: 3.0.1

Code

// tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "sourceMap": true,
    "outDir": "js/",
    "mapRoot": "js/",
    "sourceRoot": "sources/"
  }
}

// sources/index.ts
"Hello world!";

Expected behavior: It should generate a valid path.

Actual behavior:

"Hello world!";
//# sourceMappingURL=../sources/js/index.js.map

Related Issues: I think #23989 caused this, as 2.9.2 generates a valid (but absolute) path:

"Hello world!";
//# sourceMappingURL=(absolute path)/js/index.js.map

Workaround?: Modifying tsconfig seems to be generate valid paths, but then VS2017 (15.8.1) fail to map the file.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "sourceMap": true,
    "outDir": "js/",
    "sourceRoot": "../sources/"
  }
}

"Hello world!";
//# sourceMappingURL=index.js.map
