Note that the duplication in tsconfig.json files will be fixed in a followup CL now that we have tsconfig inheritance
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular 4 will support only TypeScript 2.1, so we no longer provide backwards compatibility to TS 1.8.
But use the DOM apis directly.
This also creates a separate `ServerRenderer` implementation
for `platform-server` as it previously reused the `BrowserRenderer`.
BREAKING CHANGE: web worker platform is now exported via separate packages.
Please use @angular/platform-webworker and @angular/platform-webworker-dynamic
BREAKING CHANGE:
Exceptions are no longer part of the public API. We don't expect that anyone should be referring to the Exception types.
ExceptionHandler.call(exception: any, stackTrace?: any, reason?: string): void;
change to:
ErrorHandler.handleError(error: any): void;
ngc can now validate metadata before emitting to verify it doesn't
contain an error symbol that will result in a runtime error if
it is used by the StaticReflector.
To enable this add the section,
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"strictMetadataEmit": true
}
to the top level of the tsconfig.json file passed to ngc.
Enabled metadata validation for packages that are intended to be
used statically.
Closes#9751
BREAKING CHANGE:
These forms of providers are no longer accepted:
bind(MyClass).toFactory(...)
new Provider(MyClass, toFactory: ...)
We now only accept:
{provider: MyClass, toFactory: ...}
Closes#9729
BREAKING CHANGE:
`Type` is now `Type<T>` which means that in most cases you have to
use `Type<any>` in place of `Type`.
We don't expect that any user applications use the `Type` type.
Remove test setup functions which were deprecated in rc5. See the
changelog for rc5 for how to update. In brief, instead of
`setBaseTestProviders`, use `TestBed.initTestEnvironment`.
Currently in the `linker/compiler.ts` file, the **same identifier** is used in **two declarations**:
```typescript
export type CompilerOptions = { … }
…
export const CompilerOptions = new OpaqueToken('compilerOptions');
```
This breaks the API doc generation. I’m surprised that this was not flagged by the tsc.
The duplicate declaration was introduced in 46b212706b.
If a `@NgModule` has a `bootstrap` property, `PlatformRef.bootstrapModule` /
`PlatformRef.bootstrapModuleFactory` will automatically bootstrap the components
listed in there.
If such a property does not exist, `PlatformRef.bootstrapModule` /
`PlatformRef.bootstrapModuleFactory` will try to call the method `ngDoBootstrap(appRef: ApplicationRef)` on the module class.
Otherwise an error is reported.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `browserPlatform`/`browserDynamicPlatform`/... have been deprecated and renamed into `platformBrowser`/`platformBrowserDynamic`/....
- `bootstrapModule` and `bootstrapModuleFactory` have been moved to be members of `PlaformRef`.
E.g. `platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(MyModule)`.
