1)I 'm creating pbiviz package then importing it to app.powerbi.com in first time it's not giving any error but second or third trying to generate package it's giving these errors - ( I am using the same name in visualClassName which in pbiviz.json and in my class which one in visual.ts but issue is still continue ) :

error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (32,23) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (60,55) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (61,14) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (61,48) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (72,14) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.

error TYPESCRIPT /visualPlugin.ts : (8,156) Property 'PowerKpi' does not exist on type 'typeof denemePowerBIE1D441

2)In setting.ts dataPointSettings class is giving error Class Name must be in a pascal case - Should i change this default class name to Pascal Case?

Did you add settings.ts into tsconfig.json? How did you declare Settings class?
Yes, you should use PascalCase in TypeScript as per name convention.

As you see there are some errors in visualPlugins.ts . When i start a new project it's working couple times but after that starting to giving errors :

Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (69,55) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (70,14) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (70,48) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (86,14) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /src/visual.ts : (87,26) Cannot find name 'VisualSettings'.
error TYPESCRIPT /visualPlugin.ts : (8,153) Property 'KPITest' does not exist on type 'typeof kpiPowerBi3255E

How can i fix problems in above image ?

Should i change class : 'Visual' to class: 'MyClassName' in visualPlugin.ts ? Because i changed my class name only in visual.ts and pbiviz.json files .

This is my tsconfig.json file and setting.ts is already declared in it .

Thank you Ignat Vilesov for your help,

For other people who takes same error :

Ignat's solution : rename namespace to module in settings.ts and visual.ts.

TypeScript namespaces are not supported yet. Please always use modules instead.
