When ngtsc encounters a reference to a type (for example, a Component
type listed in an NgModule declarations array), it traces the import
of that type and attempts to determine the best way to refer to it.
In the event the type is defined in the same file where a reference
is being generated, the identifier of the type is used. If the type
was imported, ngtsc has a choice. It can use the identifier from the
original import, or it can write a new import to the module where the
type came from.
ngtsc has a bug currently when it elects to rely on the user's import.
When writing a .d.ts file, the user's import may have been elided as
the type was not referred to from the type side of the program. Thus,
in .d.ts files ngtsc must always assume the import may not exist, and
generate a new one.
In .js output the import is guaranteed to still exist, so it's
preferable for ngtsc to continue using the existing import if one is
available.
This commit changes how @angular/compiler writes type definitions, and
allows it to use a different expression to write a type definition than
is used to write the value. This allows ngtsc to specify that types in
type definitions should always be imported. A corresponding change to
the staticallyResolve() Reference system allows the choice of which
type of import to use when generating an Expression from a Reference.

Ivy definition types have a generic type which specifies the return
type of the factory function. For example:
static ngDirectiveDef<NgForOf, '[ngFor][ngForOf]'>
However, in this case NgForOf itself has a type parameter <T>. Thus,
writing the above is incorrect.
This commit modifies ngtsc to understand the genericness of NgForOf and
to write the following:
static ngDirectiveDef<NgForOf<any>, '[ngFor][ngForOf]'>
PR Close#24862
Previously ngtsc would use a tuple of class types for listing metadata
in .d.ts files. For example, an @NgModule's declarations might be
represented with the type:
[NgIf, NgForOf, NgClass]
If the module had no declarations, an empty tuple [] would be produced.
This has two problems.
1. If the class type has generic type parameters, TypeScript will
complain that they're not provided.
2. The empty tuple type is not actually legal.
This commit addresses both problems.
1. Class types are now represented using the `typeof` operator, so the
above declarations would be represented as:
[typeof NgIf, typeof NgForOf, typeof NgClass].
Since typeof operates on a value, it doesn't require generic type
arguments.
2. Instead of an empty tuple, `never` is used to indicate no metadata.

ngtsc needs to reflect over code to property compile it. It performs operations
such as enumerating decorators on a type, reading metadata from constructor
parameters, etc.
Depending on the format (ES5, ES6, etc) of the underlying code, the AST
structures over which this reflection takes place can be very different. For
example, in TS/ES6 code `class` declarations are `ts.ClassDeclaration` nodes,
but in ES5 code they've been downleveled to `ts.VariableDeclaration` nodes that
are initialized to IIFEs that build up the classes being defined.
The ReflectionHost abstraction allows ngtsc to perform these operations without
directly querying the AST. Different implementations of ReflectionHost allow
support for different code formats.

This commit builds out enough of the JIT compiler to render

To play with the app, run:

PR Close#24138
Bazel has a restriction that a single output (eg. a compiled version of
//packages/common) can only be produced by a single rule. This precludes
the Angular repo from having multiple rules that build the same code. And
the complexity of having a single rule produce multiple outputs (eg. an
ngc-compiled version of //packages/common and an Ivy-enabled version) is
too high.
Additionally, the Angular repo has lots of existing tests which could be
executed as-is under Ivy. Such testing is very valuable, and it would be
nice to share not only the code, but the dependency graph / build config
as well.
Thus, this change introduces a --define flag 'compile' with three potential
values. When --define=compile=X is set, the entire build system runs in a
particular mode - the behavior of all existing targets is controlled by
the flag. This allows us to reuse our entire build structure for testing
in a variety of different manners. The flag has three possible settings:
* legacy (the default): the traditional View Engine (ngc) build
* local: runs the prototype ngtsc compiler, which does not rely on global
analysis
* jit: runs ngtsc in a mode which executes tsickle, but excludes the
Angular related transforms, which approximates the behavior of plain
tsc. This allows the main packages such as common to be tested with
the JIT compiler.
Additionally, the ivy_ng_module() rule still exists and runs ngc in a mode
where Ivy-compiled output is produced from global analysis information, as
a stopgap while ngtsc is being developed.

Short-circuitable expressions (using ternary & binary operators) could not use
the regular binding mechanism as it relies on the bindings being checked every
single time - the index is incremented as part of checking the bindings.
Then for pure function kind of bindings we use a different mechanism with a
fixed index. As such short circuiting a binding check does not mess with the
expected binding index.
Note that all pure function bindings are handled the same wether or not they
actually are short-circuitable. This allows to keep the compiler and compiled

This commit bundles 3 important changes, with the goal of enabling tree-shaking
of services which are never injected. Ordinarily, this tree-shaking is prevented
by the existence of a hard dependency on the service by the module in which it
is declared.
Firstly, @Injectable() is modified to accept a 'scope' parameter, which points
to an @NgModule(). This reverses the dependency edge, permitting the module to
not depend on the service which it "provides".
Secondly, the runtime is modified to understand the new relationship created
above. When a module receives a request to inject a token, and cannot find that
token in its list of providers, it will then look at the token for a special
ngInjectableDef field which indicates which module the token is scoped to. If
that module happens to be in the injector, it will behave as if the token
itself was in the injector to begin with.
Thirdly, the compiler is modified to read the @Injectable() metadata and to
generate the special ngInjectableDef field as part of TS compilation, using the
PartialModules system.
Additionally, this commit adds several unit and integration tests of various
flavors to test this change.
PR Close#22005
All of the providers in a module get compiled into a module definition in the
factory file. Some of these providers are for the actual module types, as those
are available for injection in Angular. For tree-shakeable tokens, the runtime

This change adds a NodeFlag which tags those module providers for later
identification.

For example, if a component has a property `person?: Person`
and a template of `<div *ngIf="person"> {{person.name}} </div>`
the compiler will no longer report that `person` might be null or
undefined.
The template compiler will generate code similar to,
```
if (NgIf.ngIfTypeGuard(instance.person)) {
instance.person.name
}
```
to validate the template's use of the interpolation expression.
Calling the type guard in this fashion allows TypeScript to infer
that `person` is non-null.

The current `flattenSummaries` function re-process the same NgModule
summary even if it has been processed before. Certain modules like
CommonModule are repeated multiple times in the module tree and it is

This was making unit tests using AOT summaries really slow. This will
also slow down JIT bootstrap applications that load AOT summaries for

The fix is to remember which summaries were seen before and not to

Each node now has two index: nodeIndex and checkIndex.
nodeIndex is the index in both the view definition and the view data.
checkIndex is the index in in the update function (update directives and update

While nodeIndex and checkIndex have the same value for now, having both of them
will allow changing the structure of view definition after compilation (ie for
runtime translations).

This is needed as the typescript no longer elides type reexports
in the generated code when using transformers.
A nice side effect is that this make summaries shorter and produces
less reexports as we rollup reexports.

After this, neither @angular/compiler nor @angular/comnpiler-cli depend
on @angular/core.

This change allows users to specify multiple exportAs names for a
directive by giving a comma-delimited list inside the string.
The primary motivation for this change is to allow these names to be
changed in a backwards compatible way.
This also allows to customize the filePaths in `.ngsummary.json` file
via the new methods `toSummaryFileName` and `fromSummaryFileName`
on the `CompilerHost`.
This change allows ReflectiveInjector to be tree shaken resulting
in not needed Reflect polyfil and smaller bundles.
Code savings for HelloWorld using Closure:
Reflective: bundle.js: 105,864(34,190 gzip)
Static: bundle.js: 154,889(33,555 gzip)
645( 2%)
BREAKING CHANGE:
`platformXXXX()` no longer accepts providers which depend on reflection.
Specifically the method signature when from `Provider[]` to
`StaticProvider[]`.
Example:
Before:
```
[
MyClass,
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA}
]
```
After:
```
[
{provide: MyClass, deps: [Dep1,...]},
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA, deps: [Dep1,...]}
]
```
NOTE: This only applies to platform creation and providers for the JIT
compiler. It does not apply to `@Compotent` or `@NgModule` provides
declarations.
Benchpress note: Previously Benchpress also supported reflective
provides, which now require static providers.
DEPRECATION:
- `ReflectiveInjector` is now deprecated as it will be remove. Use
`Injector.create` as a replacement.

Refactoring the compiler to use transformers moves the code generation
after type-checking which suppresses the errors TypeScript would
generate in the user code.
`TypeChecker` currently produces the same factory code that was
generated prior the switch to transfomers, getting back the same
diagnostics as before. The refactoring will allow the code to
diverge from the factory code and allow better diagnostic error
messages than was previously possible by type-checking the factories.
These files are needed so that:
- user code can compile even without real codegen
- as tsc transformers cannot create but only change existing files
in the transformation pipeline.
Add source location as a note tag as `<note category="location">path/to/file.ts:start_line[,end_line]</note>`.
`[,end_line]` part is optional and specified only if the end line is different from the start line.

* refactor(core): provide error message in stack for reflective DI
Fixes#16355
* fix(compiler): make AOT work with `noUnusedParameters`
Fixes#15532
* refactor: use view engine also for `NgModuleFactory`s
This is a prerequisite for being able to mock providers
in AOTed code later on.
Template expressions can now use a post-fix `!` operator
that asserts the target of the operator is not null. This is
similar to the TypeScript non-null assert operator. Expressions
generated in factories will be generated with the non-null assert
operator.
Closes: #10855
This code only runs in ES5 mode in the test suite, so this is difficult to test.
However `updateFromTemplate` is being called with a spread operator, as

Allows to inherit ctor args, lifecycle hooks and statics from a class

This change reduces the amount of generated code by only adding `log`
calls for elements and text nodes.
We need the `log` calls to allow users to jump to the right place

and text nodes, but not for directives, queries, … as for them we
first locate the corresponding element or text node.

DEPRECATION:
- the arguments `inputs` / `outputs` / `ngContentSelectors` of `downgradeComponent`
are no longer used as Angular calculates these automatically now.
- Compiler.getNgContentSelectors is deprecated. Use
ComponentFactory.ngContentSelectors instead.
E.g. for a component like this:
```
@Component({
template: ‘<ng-content select=“child”></ng-content>’
})
class MyComp {
@Input(‘aInputName’)
aInputProp: string;
@Output(‘aEventName’)
aOuputProp: EventEmitter<any>;
}
```
the `ComponentFactory` will now contain the following:
- `inputs = {aInputProp: ‘aInputName’}`
- `outputs = {aOutputProp: ‘aOutputName’}`
- `ngContentSelectors = [‘child’]`
Fixes:
- In G3, filePaths don’t start with a `/` and therefore became relative.
- Always using the `ng://` prefix groups angular resources in the same
way for AOT and JIT.
Inlcuded fixes:
- include preamble in generated source map
- always add a mapping for line/col 0 so that the
generated sourcemap is not sparse
- use a uniue sourceUrl for inline templates even
in the AOT case

In v2.x, users had to annotate classes that they intended to use as tokens with `@Injectable`. This is no longer required in v4.x for tokens,

with `@Injectable` to be statically analyzable by ngc.
This commit reduces the error into a warning
if the constructor parameters do not meet this condition.

are not statically analyzable by ngc will produce a warning.

BREAKING CHANGES
`ComponentFactory.create()` takes an extra optional `NgModuleRef` parameter.
No change should be required in user code as the correct module will be used
when none is provided
DEPRECATIONS
The following methods were used internally and are no more required:
- `RouterOutlet.locationFactoryResolver`
- `RouterOutlet.locationInjector`
BREAKING CHANGE:
Perviously, any provider that had an ngOnDestroy lifecycle hook would be created eagerly.
Now, only classes that are annotated with @Component, @Directive, @Pipe, @NgModule are eager. Providers only become eager if they are either directly or transitively injected into one of the above.
This also makes all `useValue` providers eager, which
should have no observable impact other than code size.
EXPECTED IMPACT:
Making providers eager was an incorrect behavior and never documented.
Also, providers that are used by a directive / pipe / ngModule stay eager.
So the impact should be rather small.
Fixes#14552
The main use case for the generated source maps is to give
errors a meaningful context in terms of the original source
that the user wrote.
Related changes that are included in this commit:
* renamed virtual folders used for jit:
* ng://<module type>/module.ngfactory.js
* ng://<module type>/<comp type>.ngfactory.js
* ng://<module type>/<comp type>.html (for inline templates)
* error logging:
* all errors that happen in templates are logged
from the place of the nearest element.
* instead of logging error messages and stacks separately,
we log the actual error. This is needed so that browsers apply
source maps to the stack correctly.
* error type and error is logged as one log entry.
Note that long-stack-trace zone has a bug that
disables source maps for stack traces,
see https://github.com/angular/zone.js/issues/661.
