ArkTS Compilation Error Codes

Error Message

Cannot import files outside of the current module using relative paths. Import statement: XXX. At file: YYY.

Symptom

Files outside the current module are not allowed to be imported using relative paths.

Possible Causes

The import statement attempts to import a file outside the current module using a relative path.

Solution

Ensure that no files outside the current module are imported using relative paths.

Error Message

Avoid absolute paths in imports. Import statement: XXX. At file: YYY.

Symptom

An absolute path is detected in the import statement.

Possible Causes

An absolute path is used in the import statement in the specified file.

Solution

Check the import statement to ensure that no files are imported using absolute paths.

Error Message

Cannot resolve import statement XXX.

Symptom

The import statement cannot be resolved.

Possible Causes

When the case-sensitive check is enabled (that is, the caseSensitiveCheck field is set to true in the project-level build-profile.json5 file), the folder being imported only contains Index.ets or Index.ts, but only folders that include index.ets or index.ts can be imported.
When the case-sensitive check is enabled, the case of the file name specified in the import statement does not match the case of the actual file name.

Solution

Import a specific file instead of a folder. If you need to import a folder, ensure that the folder contains index.ets or index.ts (with lowercase "i").
Ensure that the case of the file name specified in the import statement matches the case of the actual file name.
