Typescript and jQuery type. The right way to import jquery type?
<p>Is it possible to include jquery.d.ts and use jQueryStatic type? I need something like </p>

<pre><code>...
protected el : jQueryStatic;
...
</code></pre>

<p>No matter how I try I can not import jQueryStatic interface from <a href="https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/tree/master/jquery" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/tree/master/jquery</a></p>

<p>Thanks a lot.</p>

<p><strong>Update</strong></p>

<pre><code>/// &lt;reference path="../../../../defs/jquery.d.ts" /&gt;
 error TS2304: Cannot find name 'jQuery'.

/// &lt;reference path="../../../../defs/jquery.d.ts" /&gt;
import {jQuery} from 'jquery';
error TS2305: Module '"jquery"' has no exported member 'jQuery'.
</code></pre>

<p><strong>Update</strong></p>

<p>Working solution was to add type JQuery not jQuery.</p>

<pre><code>/// &lt;reference path="../../../defs/jquery.d.ts" /&gt;
...
protected $el: JQuery;
</code></pre>
