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]
```
Update the Angular 2 transformer to recognize
`package:angular2/platform/browser.dart` as the library which exports
the `bootstrap` function.
Update playground, examples, benchmarks, & tests to import bootstrap from
platform/browser.
Closes#7647
Change the old public api spec to check only the exported top-level symbols. This will make sure that Dart and JS do not diverge. The new public api spec verifies the TS api.
Closes#7447
Create transformers that allow specifying transformer actions on
specific libraries.
* angular2/transform/codegen: Generates all necessary code.
* angular2/transform/reflection_rewriter: Replaces `bootstrap` calls in
application entry points to remove transitive dart:mirrors import,
resulting in smaller code size & faster execution.
* angular2/transform/deferred_rewriter: Rewrites deferred imports and
`loadLibrary` calls to initialize Angular2 and preserve deferred
operation.
Proper configuration of these three transformers can replace the single
angular2 transformer, resulting in significant performance gains for
builds of large angular2 apps.
Update angular2 itself to declare the codegen transformer, since it has
neither deferred imports nor application entry points.
Remove the undocumented & unused quick_transformer.
Instead of running with karma and the karma-dart shim, run dart
tests directly using the new package:test runner. This migrates
away from package:unittest.
Fixes a couple tests, mostly associated with depending on absolute
URLs or editing the test providers after an injector had already
been created.
Remove karma-dart and associated files. Change gupfiles to run tests
via `pub run test` instead.
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
Remove couple of circular dependency between modules in Angular 2 ES5 output caused by exception_handler.ts and router_providers.ts.
Fix the build/checkCircularDependency gulp task to call madge properly to detect the circular deps.
Closes#7287
@petebacondarwin deserves credit for most of this commit.
This allows you to specify a regex and serializer function instead
of the path DSL in your route declaration.
```
@RouteConfig([
{ regex: '[a-z]+.[0-9]+',
serializer: (params) => `{params.a}.params.b}`,
component: MyComponent }
])
class Component {}
```
