BREAKING CHANGE:
`Location` and other related providers have been moved out of `router` and into `platform/common`. `BrowserPlatformLocation` is not meant to be used directly however advanced configurations may use it via the following import change.
Before:
```
import {
PlatformLocation,
Location,
LocationStrategy,
HashLocationStrategy,
PathLocationStrategy,
APP_BASE_HREF}
from 'angular2/router';
import {BrowserPlatformLocation} from 'angular2/src/router/location/browser_platform_location';
```
After:
```
import {
PlatformLocation,
Location,
LocationStrategy,
HashLocationStrategy,
PathLocationStrategy,
APP_BASE_HREF}
from 'angular2/platform/common';
import {BrowserPlatformLocation} from 'angular2/src/platform/browser/location/browser_platform_location';
```
Closes#7962
Instead of using injectAsync and returning a promise, use the `async` function
to wrap tests. This will run the test inside a zone which does not complete
the test until all asynchronous tasks have been completed.
`async` may be used with the `inject` function, or separately.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`injectAsync` is now deprecated. Instead, use the `async` function
to wrap any asynchronous tests.
Before:
```
it('should wait for returned promises', injectAsync([FancyService], (service) => {
return service.getAsyncValue().then((value) => { expect(value).toEqual('async value'); });
}));
it('should wait for returned promises', injectAsync([], () => {
return somePromise.then(() => { expect(true).toEqual(true); });
}));
```
After:
```
it('should wait for returned promises', async(inject([FancyService], (service) => {
service.getAsyncValue().then((value) => { expect(value).toEqual('async value'); });
})));
// Note that if there is no injection, we no longer need `inject` OR `injectAsync`.
it('should wait for returned promises', async(() => {
somePromise.then() => { expect(true).toEqual(true); });
}));
```
Closes#7735
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Renderer:
* renderComponent method is removed form `Renderer`, only present on `RootRenderer`
* Renderer.setDebugInfo is removed. Renderer.createElement / createText / createTemplateAnchor
now take the DebugInfo directly.
- Query semantics:
* Queries don't work with dynamically loaded components.
* e.g. for router-outlet: loaded components can't be queries via @ViewQuery,
but router-outlet emits an event `activate` now that emits the activated component
- Exception classes and the context inside changed (renamed fields)
- DebugElement.attributes is an Object and not a Map in JS any more
- ChangeDetectorGenConfig was renamed into CompilerConfig
- AppViewManager.createEmbeddedViewInContainer / AppViewManager.createHostViewInContainer
are removed, use the methods in ViewContainerRef instead
- Change detection order changed:
* 1. dirty check component inputs
* 2. dirty check content children
* 3. update render nodes

Reflector always returns either an empty object or an empty list if no
metadata is recorded for the class. StaticReflector matches this
behavior.
Closes#7986
In Dart, ImmutableLists are just a projection of an underlying list.
I.e. if the underlying list changes, the ImmutableList also changes.
So we can't make optimizations based on checking whether a collection
is an ImmutableList.
This reverts commit a10c02cb41.
Closes#8023
Useful for avoiding doing an actual XHR during testing.
Part of the solution for #4051 (Other part is a Karma plugin that will create the template cache).
Closes#7940
Added a static reflector that uses metadta produced during build
or, additionally, directly from typescript, to produce the metadata
used by Angular code generation compiler.
Add a check in ReflectionCapabilities#interfaces which determines if
the passed-in type implements a Lifecycle Interface but does not declare
that it does so.
See https://goo.gl/b07Kii for details.
Closes#6849
fixes#6303
BREAKING CHANGE:
For static content projection, elements with *-directives are now matched against the element itself vs the template before.
<p *ngIf="condition" foo></p>
Before:
// Use the implicit template for projection
<ng-content select="template"></ng-content>
After:
// Use the actual element for projection
<ng-content select="p[foo]"></ng-content>
Closes#7742
Before, you'd get an error like:
```
EXCEPTION: Cannot find a differ supporting object ‘[object Object]’ in [users in UsersCmp@2:14]
```
Now, you get:
```
EXCEPTION: Cannot find a differ supporting object ‘[object Object]’ of type 'Object'. Did you mean to bind ngFor to an Array? in [users in UsersCmp@2:14]
```
