Cannot import SelectItem in TypeScript

[bear-bibeault]

Describe the bug

Using 8.1.1

The Get Started states that you can import SelecItem via:

import { SelectItem } from 'primereact/api';

But TS complains: Module '"primereact/api"' has no exported member 'SelectItem'., and indeed, api.d.ts contains no such type.

Attempting to import directly via import { SelectItem } from "primereact/selectitem"; also fails with TS complaining:

File name '/Users/xyz/projects/aw-next/aw-ui-portal/node_modules/primereact/selectitem/selectitem.d.ts' differs from already included file name '/Users/xyz/projects/aw-next/aw-ui-portal/node_modules/primereact/selectitem/SelectItem.d.ts' only in casing.
  The file is in the program because:
    Imported via '../selectitem/SelectItem' from file '/Users/xyz/projects/aw-next/aw-ui-portal/node_modules/primereact/dropdown/dropdown.d.ts' with packageId 'primereact/selectitem/[email protected]'
    Imported via "primereact/selectitem" from file '/Users/xyz/projects/aw-next/aw-ui-portal/src/features/istrike/IStrikeServiceSelector.tsx'ts(1149)
dropdown.d.ts(5, 39): File is included via import here. 

However, SelectItem is not exported by dropdown.d.ts so it cannot be imported from there.

How does one go about importing SelectItem? I'd rather not resort to using any.

Fixed already in master for 8.2.0 see this ticket: #2945

Actually let me look at this

[melloware]

This is the correct import...

import { SelectItem } from "primereact/selectitem";

What OS are you running on as well?

OK good I am pretty sure my fix for #2945 will fix your issue in 8.2.0
