The import graph scans source files for its import and export statements
to extract the source files that it imports/exports. Such statements
contain a module specifier string and this module specifier used to be
resolved to the actual source file using an explicit module resolution
step. This is especially expensive in incremental rebuilds, as the
module resolution cache has not been primed during program creation
(assuming that the incremental program was able to reuse the module
resolution results from a prior compilation). This meant that all module
resolution requests would have to hit the filesystem, which is
relatively slow.
This commit is able to replace the module resolution with TypeScript's
bound symbol of the module specifier. This symbol corresponds with the
`ts.SourceFile` that is being imported/exported, which is exactly what
the import graph was interested in. As a result, no filesystem accesses
are done anymore.

In Angular programs, changing a file may require other files to be
emitted as well due to implicit NgModule dependencies. For example, if
the selector of a directive is changed then all components that have
that directive in their compilation scope need to be recompiled, as the
change of selector may affect the directive matching results.
Until now, the compiler solved this problem using a single dependency
graph. The implicit NgModule dependencies were represented in this
graph, such that a changed file would correctly also cause other files
to be re-emitted. This approach is limited in a few ways:
1. The file dependency graph is used to determine whether it is safe to
reuse the analysis data of an Angular decorated class. This analysis
data is invariant to unrelated changes to the NgModule scope, but
because the single dependency graph also tracked the implicit
NgModule dependencies the compiler had to consider analysis data as
stale far more often than necessary.
2. It is typical for a change to e.g. a directive to not affect its
public API—its selector, inputs, outputs, or exportAs clause—in which
case there is no need to re-emit all declarations in scope, as their
compilation output wouldn't have changed.
This commit implements a mechanism by which the compiler is able to
determine the impact of a change by comparing it to the prior
compilation. To achieve this, a new graph is maintained that tracks all
public API information of all Angular decorated symbols. During an
incremental compilation this information is compared to the information
that was captured in the most recently succeeded compilation. This
determines the exact impact of the changes to the public API, which
is then used to determine which files need to be re-emitted.
Note that the file dependency graph remains, as it is still used to
track the dependencies of analysis data. This graph does no longer track
the implicit NgModule dependencies, which allows for better reuse of
analysis data.
These changes also fix a bug where template type-checking would fail to
incorporate changes made to a transitive base class of a
directive/component. This used to be a problem because transitive base
classes were not recorded as a transitive dependency in the file
dependency graph, such that prior type-check blocks would erroneously
be reused.
This commit also fixes an incorrectness where a change to a declaration
in NgModule `A` would not cause the declarations in NgModules that
import from NgModule `A` to be re-emitted. This was intentionally
incorrect as otherwise the performance of incremental rebuilds would
have been far worse. This is no longer a concern, as the compiler is now
able to only re-emit when actually necessary.

assumption that the condition could not fail. This assumption failed to

format-path in its `package.json`. This is an issue with the library,

Some tools (such as Language Server and ng-packagr) only care about
the processed typings generated by ngcc. Forcing these tools to process
the JavaScript files as well has two disadvantages:
First, unnecessary work is being done, which is time consuming.
But more importantly, it is not always possible to know how the final bundling
tools will want the processed JavaScript to be configured. For example,
the CLI would prefer the `--create-ivy-entry-points` option but this would
break non-CLI build tooling.
This commit adds a new option (`--typings-only` on the command line, and
`typingsOnly` via programmatic API) that instructs ngcc to only render changes
to the typings files for the entry-points that it finds, and not to write any
JavaScript files.
In order to process the typings, a JavaScript format will need to be analysed, but
it will not be rendered to disk. When using this option, it is best to offer ngcc a
wide range of possible JavaScript formats to choose from, and it will use the
first format that it finds. Ideally you would configure it to try the `ES2015` FESM
format first, since this will be the most performant.

This commit causes imports added by ngtsc's `ImportManager` to have their
TypeScript "original node" set to the generated `ts.ImportDeclaration`
statement.
In g3, the tsickle transformer runs after the Angular transformer and post-
processes Angular's compilation output. One of its post-processing tasks is
to transform generated imports and references to imported symbols from the
commonjs module system to the g3 module system. Part of this transformation
involves recognizing modules with specific metadata and altering references
to symbols from those modules accordingly.
Normally, tsickle can rely on TypeScript's binding for an imported symbol to
find its origin module and thus the correct metadata for the symbol. However
the Angular transform generates new synthetic imports which don't have such
binding information. Angular's imports are always namespace imports of the
form:
```
import * as qualifier 'module/specifier';
```
References to such an import are then of the form `qualifier.SymbolName`.
To process such imports properly, tsickle needs to be able to associate the
reference to `qualifier` in the expression `qualifer.SymbolName` with the
`ts.ImportDeclaration` statement that defines it. It expects to do this by
looking at the `ts.getOriginalNode()` for the `qualifier` reference, which
should be the `ts.ImportDeclaration`. This commit changes ngtsc's import
generation mechanism to set the original node on `qualifier` identifiers
according to this expectation.
This commit is not tested in the direct compiler tests, since:
1) there is no observable behavior externally from setting the original node
2) we don't have tests that intercept transformer operations (which could be
used to directly assert against the AST nodes)
3) tsickle's published version does not (yet) contain the g3-specific
transformations which rely on the original node and would thus allow the
behavior to be observed.
Instead, we rely on the g3 testing suite to validate the correctness of this
fix. Breaking this functionality would cause g3 compilation errors for
targets, since tsickle would be unable to transform imports correctly.

When a source-map has an inline source, any source-map linked from
that source should only be loaded if itself is also inline; it should not
attempt to load a source-map from the file-system. Otherwise we can
find ourselves with inadvertent infinite cyclic dependencies.
For example, if a transpiler takes a file (e.g. index.js) and generates
a new file overwriting the original file - capturing the original
source inline in the new source-map (index.js.map) - the source
file loader might read the inline original file (also index.js) and
then try to load the `index.js.map` file from disk - ad infinitum.
Note that the first call to `loadSourceFile()` is special, since you can
pass in the source-file and source-map contents directly as in-memory
strrngs. This is common if the transpiler has just generated these and has
not yet written them to disk.
When the contents are passed into `loadSourceFile()` directly, they are
not treated as "inline" for the purposes described above since there is
no chance of these "in-memory" source and source-map contents being caught
up in a cyclic dependency.

When the compiler is invoked via ngc or the Angular CLI, its APIs are used
under the assumption that Angular analysis/diagnostics are only requested if
the program has no TypeScript-level errors. A result of this assumption is
that the incremental engine has not needed to resolve changes via its
dependency graph when the program contained broken imports, since broken
imports are a TypeScript error.
The Angular Language Service for Ivy is using the compiler as a backend, and
exercising its incremental compilation APIs without enforcing this
assumption. As a result, the Language Service has run into issues where
broken imports cause incremental compilation to fail and produce incorrect
results.
This commit introduces a mechanism within the compiler to keep track of
files for which dependency analysis has failed, and to always treat such
files as potentially affected by future incremental steps. This is tested
via the Language Service infrastructure to ensure that the compiler is doing
the right thing in the case of invalid imports.
PR Close#39923
To avoid overwhelming a user with secondary diagnostics that derive from a
"root cause" error, the compiler has the notion of a "poisoned" NgModule.
An NgModule becomes poisoned when its declaration contains semantic errors:
declarations which are not components or pipes, imports which are not other
NgModules, etc. An NgModule also becomes poisoned if it imports or exports
another poisoned NgModule.
Previously, the compiler tracked this poisoned status as an alternate state
for each scope. Either a correct scope could be produced, or the entire
scope would be set to a sentinel error value. This meant that the compiler
would not track any information about a scope that was determined to be in
error.
This method presents several issues:
1. The compiler is unable to support the language service and return results
when a component or its module scope is poisoned.
This is fine for compilation, since diagnostics will be produced showing the
error(s), but the language service needs to still work for incorrect code.
2. `getComponentScopes()` does not return components with a poisoned scope,
which interferes with resource tracking of incremental builds.
If the component isn't included in that list, then the NgModule for it will
not have its dependencies properly tracked, and this can cause future
incremental build steps to produce incorrect results.
This commit changes the tracking of poisoned module scopes to use a flag on
the scope itself, rather than a sentinel value that replaces the scope. This
means that the scope itself will still be tracked, even if it contains
semantic errors. A test is added to the language service which verifies that
poisoned scopes can still be used in template type-checking.
PR Close#39923
Previously, if a trait's analysis step resulted in diagnostics, the trait
would be considered "errored" and no further operations, including register,
would be performed. Effectively, this meant that the compiler would pretend
the class in question was actually undecorated.
However, this behavior is problematic for several reasons:
1. It leads to inaccurate diagnostics being reported downstream.
For example, if a component is put into the error state, for example due to
a template error, the NgModule which declares the component would produce a
diagnostic claiming that the declaration is neither a directive nor a pipe.
This happened because the compiler wouldn't register() the component trait,
so the component would not be recorded as actually being a directive.
2. It can cause incorrect behavior on incremental builds.
This bug is more complex, but the general issue is that if the compiler
fails to associate a component and its module, then incremental builds will
not correctly re-analyze the module when the component's template changes.
Failing to register the component as such is one link in the larger chain of
issues that result in these kinds of issues.
3. It lumps together diagnostics produced during analysis and resolve steps.
This is not causing issues currently as the dependency graph ensures the
right classes are re-analyzed when needed, instead of showing stale
diagnostics. However, the dependency graph was not intended to serve this
role, and could potentially be optimized in ways that would break this
functionality.
This commit removes the concept of an "errored" trait entirely from the
trait system. Instead, analyzed and resolved traits have corresponding (and
separate) diagnostics, in addition to potentially `null` analysis results.
Analysis (but not resolution) diagnostics are carried forward during
incremental build operations. Compilation (emit) is only performed when
a trait reaches the resolved state with no diagnostics.
This change is functionally different than before as the `register` step is
now performed even in the presence of analysis errors, as long as analysis
results are also produced. This fixes problem 1 above, and is part of the
larger solution to problem 2.

Recent optimizations to ngcc have significantly reduced the total time
it takes to process `node_modules`, to such extend that sharding across

As an additional benefit, having fewer workers requires less memory and
less startup time.

ngcc creates typically two `ts.Program` instances for each entry-point,
one for processing sources and another one for processing the typings.
The creation of these programs is somewhat expensive, as it concerns
module resolution and parsing of source files.
This commit implements several layers of caching to optimize the
creation of programs:
1. A shared module resolution cache across all entry-points within a
single invocation of ngcc. Both the sources and typings program
benefit from this cache.
2. Sharing the parsed `ts.SourceFile` for a single entry-point between
the sources and typings program.
3. Sharing parsed `ts.SourceFile`s of TypeScript's default libraries
across all entry-points within a single invocation. Some of these
default library typings are large and therefore expensive to parse,
so sharing the parsed source files across all entry-points offers
a significant performance improvement.
Using a bare CLI app created using `ng new` + `ng add @angular/material`,
the above changes offer a 3-4x improvement in ngcc's processing time
when running synchronously and ~2x improvement for asynchronous runs.

When ngcc creates an entry-point program, the `allowJs` option is enabled
in order to operate on the JavaScript source files of the entry-point.
A side-effect of this approach is that external modules that don't ship
declaration files will also have their JavaScript source files loaded
into the program, as the `allowJs` flag allows for them to be imported.
This may pose an issue in certain edge cases, where ngcc would inadvertently
operate on these external modules. This can introduce all sorts of undesirable
behavior and incompatibilities, e.g. the reflection host that is selected for
the entry-point's format could be incompatible with that of the external
module's JavaScript bundles.
To avoid these kinds of issues, module resolution that would resolve to
a JavaScript file located outside of the package will instead be rejected,

`allowJs` is set to false, which is the case in typical Angular compilations.
