Now, using `ng.probe(element)` in the browser console returns
a DebugElement when in dev mode.
`ComponentFixture#debugElement` also returns a new DebugElement.
Breaking Change:
This is a breaking change for unit tests. The API for the DebugElement
has changed. Now, there is a DebugElement or DebugNode for every node
in the DOM, not only nodes with an ElementRef. `componentViewChildren` is
removed, and `childNodes` is a list of ElementNodes corresponding to every
child in the DOM. `query` no longer takes a scope parameter, since
the entire rendered DOM is included in the `childNodes`.
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.componentViewChildren[0];
```
After
```
// Depending on the DOM structure of your component, the
// index may have changed or the first component child
// may be a sub-child.
componentFixture.debugElement.children[0];
```
Before:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'), Scope.all());
```
After:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'));
```
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.elementRef;
```
After:
```
componentFixture.elementRef;
```
Resolve all invalid field override errors, workaround current
reflection limitations in Dart Dev Compiler. todo, hello_world and
key_events samples now work with Dart Dev Compiler.
BREAKING CHANGE: remove TemplateRef.elementRef setter
Closes#6441
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Platform pipes can only contain types and arrays of types,
but no bindings any more.
- When using transformers, platform pipes need to be specified explicitly
in the pubspec.yaml via the new config option
`platform_pipes`.
- `Compiler.compileInHost` now returns a `HostViewFactoryRef`
- Component view is not yet created when component constructor is called.
-> use `onInit` lifecycle callback to access the view of a component
- `ViewRef#setLocal` has been moved to new type `EmbeddedViewRef`
- `internalView` is gone, use `EmbeddedViewRef.rootNodes` to access
the root nodes of an embedded view
- `renderer.setElementProperty`, `..setElementStyle`, `..setElementAttribute` now
take a native element instead of an ElementRef
- `Renderer` interface now operates on plain native nodes,
instead of `RenderElementRef`s or `RenderViewRef`s
Closes#5993

Previously Angular would run in dev prod mode by default, and you could enable the dev mode by calling enableDevMode.
After
Now, Angular runs in the dev mode by default, and you can enable the prod mode by calling enableProdMode.
Since AppRootUrl is removed, the logic for extending and emitting
the root url as part of the setup seems unnecessary.
BREAKING CHANGES:
The setupWebWorker function exported from
angular2/platform/worker_app no longer returns a promise of providers,
but instead synchronously returns providers.

This changes the public api spec to check each public barrel individually
to make sure its API has not changed. The previous API spec has been
preserved but split into respective barrels.
The compiler barrel has been added to the spec, along with all of its
public exports. Previously, angular2/angular2 was only exporting a
handful of symbols from compiler, so there are now many more symbols
being tested in the spec for compiler than previously.

BREAKING CHANGE:
toPromise is no longer an instance method of the `Observable` returned
by Angular, and fromPromise is no longer available as a static method.
The easiest way to account for this change in applications is to import
the auto-patching modules from rxjs, which will automatically add these
operators back to the Observable prototype.
```
import 'rxjs/add/operator/toPromise';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/fromPromise';
```

api, which prevents some confusing error messages.

move to new RxJS distribution.
BREAKING CHANGE:
RxJS imports now are via `rxjs` instead of `@reactivex/rxjs`
Individual operators can be imported `import 'rxjs/operators/map'`
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, pipes that wanted to be notified when they were destroyed
would implement the PipeOnDestroy interface and name the callback
`onDestroy`. This change removes the PipeOnDestroy interface and
instead uses Angular's lifecycle interface `OnDestroy`, with the
`ngOnDestroy` method.
Before:
```
import {Pipe, PipeOnDestroy} from 'angular2/angular2';
@Pipe({pure: false})
export class MyPipe implements PipeOnDestroy {
onDestroy() {}
}
```
After:
import {Pipe, OnDestroy} from 'angular2/angular2';
@Pipe({pure: false})
export class MyPipe implements PipeOnDestroy {
ngOnDestroy() {}
}
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, components that would implement lifecycle interfaces would include methods
like "onChanges" or "afterViewInit." Given that components were at risk of using such
names without realizing that Angular would call the methods at different points of
the component lifecycle. This change adds an "ng" prefix to all lifecycle hook methods,
far reducing the risk of an accidental name collision.
To fix, just rename these methods:
* onInit
* onDestroy
* doCheck
* onChanges
* afterContentInit
* afterContentChecked
* afterViewInit
* afterViewChecked
* _Router Hooks_
* onActivate
* onReuse
* onDeactivate
* canReuse
* canDeactivate
To:
* ngOnInit,
* ngOnDestroy,
* ngDoCheck,
* ngOnChanges,
* ngAfterContentInit,
* ngAfterContentChecked,
* ngAfterViewInit,
* ngAfterViewChecked
* _Router Hooks_
* routerOnActivate
* routerOnReuse
* routerOnDeactivate
* routerCanReuse
* routerCanDeactivate
The names of lifecycle interfaces and enums have not changed, though interfaces
have been updated to reflect the new method names.

Often some init logic needs to run when a platform or an application is boostrapped.
For example, boostraping a platform requires initializing the dom adapter.
Now, it can be done as follows:
new Provider(PLATFORM_INITIALIZER, {useValue: initDomAdapter, multi: true}),
All platform initializers will be run after the platform injector has been created.
Similarly, all application initializers will be run after the app injector has been
created.
Closes#5355
Currently, core depends on DomRenderer, which depends on the browser.
This means that if you depend on angular2/core, you will always
pull in the browser dom adapter and the browser render, regardless
if you need them or not.
This PR moves the browser dom adapter and the browser renderer out of core.
BREAKING CHANGE
If you import browser adapter or dom renderer directly (not via angular2/core),
you will have to change the import path.
Currently, core depends on the browser, which means that other platforms (e.g., NativeScript or webworker) cannot use the bootstrapping logic core provides.
This PR extract makes bootstrapping logic in core completely platform-independent. The browser-specific code was moved to "angular2/platforms/browser".
BREAKING CHANGE
A few private helpers (e.g., platformCommon or applicationCommon) were removed or replaced with other helpers. Look at PLATFORM_COMMON_PROVIDERS, APPLICATION_COMMON_PROVIDERS, BROWSER_PROVIDERS, BROWSER_APP_PROVIDERS to see if they export the providers you need.

After discussing it we decided that PLATFORM_ is a better prefix for directives available everywhere in the app.

This is part of ongoing work to make core platform-independent.
BREAKING CHANGE
All private exports from 'angular2/src/core/facade/{lang,collection,exception_handler}' should be replaced with 'angular2/src/facade/{lang,collection,exception_handler}'.
BREAKING CHANGE
Previously, the controlsErrors getter of ControlGroup and ControlArray returned the errors of their direct children. This was confusing because the result did not include the errors of nested children (ControlGroup -> ControlGroup -> Control). Making controlsErrors to include such errors would require inventing some custom serialization format, which applications would have to understand.
Since controlsErrors was just a convenience method, and it was causing confusing, we are removing it. If you want to get the errors of the whole form serialized into a single object, you can manually traverse the form and accumulate the errors. This way you have more control over how the errors are serialized.
Closes#5102
Ambient directives can be configured when bootstraping an application.
Ambient directives can be used in every component of the application without
needing to explicitly list them.
Refactor EventEmitter and Async Facade to match ES7 Observable semantics, properly use RxJS typedefs, make EventEmitter inherit from RxJS Subject. Closes#4149.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- consumers of EventEmitter no longer need to call .toRx()
- EventEmitter is now generic and requires a type - e.g. `EventEmitter<string>`
- EventEmitter and Observable now use the `.subscribe(generatorOrNext, error, complete)` method instead of `.observer(generator)`
- ObservableWrapper uses `callNext/callError/callComplete` instead of `callNext/callThrow/callReturn`
Currently, the only way for a directive to export a validator is by providing a function. This makes it ackward to write validators that depend on directive inputs. In addition to supporting functions as validators, classes implementing the Validator interface are supported too.
