Recently the ngtsc translator was modified to be more `ScriptTarget`
aware, which basically means that it will not generate non-ES5 code
when the output format is ES5 or similar.
This commit enhances that change by also "downleveling" localized
messages. In ES2015 the messages use tagged template literals, which
are not available in ES5.

Due to the fact that Tsickle runs between analyze and transform phases in Angular, Tsickle may transform nodes (add comments with type annotations for Closure) that we captured during the analyze phase. As a result, some patterns where a function is returned from another function may trigger automatic semicolon insertion, which breaks the code (makes functions return `undefined` instead of a function). In order to avoid the problem, this commit updates the code to wrap all functions in some expression ("privders" and "viewProviders") in parentheses.

When ngtsc comes across a source file during partial evaluation, it
would determine all exported symbols from that module and evaluate their
values greedily. This greedy evaluation strategy introduces unnecessary
work and can fall into infinite recursion when the evaluation result of
an exported expression would circularly depend on the source file. This
would primarily occur in CommonJS code, where the `exports` variable can
be used to refer to an exported variable. This variable would be
resolved to the source file itself, thereby greedily evaluating all
exported symbols and thus ending up evaluating the `exports` variable
again. This variable would be resolved to the source file itself,
thereby greedily evaluating all exported symbols and thus ending u
evaluating the `exports` variable again. This variable would be
resolved to the source file itself, thereby greedily evaluating all
exported symbols and thus ending up evaluating the `exports` variable
again. This variable would be resolved to the source file itself,
thereby greedily evaluating all exported symbols and thus ending up

until all stack frames were exhausted.
This commit introduces a `ResolvedModule` that delays the evaluation of
its exports until they are actually requested. This avoids the circular
dependency when evaluating `exports`, thereby fixing the issue.

```typescript
/*@__PURE__*/ setClassMetadata(...);
```
to:
```typescript
/*@__PURE__*/ (function() {
setClassMetadata(...);
})();
```
Without the IIFE, terser won't remove these function calls because the
function calls have arguments that themselves are function calls or other
impure expressions. In order to make the whole block be DCE-ed by terser,
we wrap it into IIFE and mark the IIFE as pure.
It should be noted that this change doesn't have any impact on CLI* with
build-optimizer, which removes the whole setClassMetadata block within
the webpack loader, so terser or webpack itself don't get to see it at
all. This is done to prevent cross-chunk retention issues caused by
webpack's internal module registry.

https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/pull/16228

primarly to correct the seemingly correct but non-function PURE annotation
that builds not using build-optimizer could rely on.

NgModules in Ivy have a definition which contains various different bits
of metadata about the module. In particular, this metadata falls into two
categories:
* metadata required to use the module at runtime (for bootstrapping, etc)
in AOT-only applications.
* metadata required to depend on the module from a JIT-compiled app.
The latter metadata consists of the module's declarations, imports, and
exports. To support JIT usage, this metadata must be included in the
generated code, especially if that code is shipped to NPM. However, because
this metadata preserves the entire NgModule graph (references to all
directives and components in the app), it needs to be removed during
optimization for AOT-only builds.
Previously, this was done with a clever design:
1. The extra metadata was added by a function called `setNgModuleScope`.
A call to this function was generated after each NgModule.
2. This function call was marked as "pure" with a comment and used
`noSideEffects` internally, which causes optimizers to remove it.
The effect was that in dev mode or test mode (which use JIT), no optimizer
runs and the full NgModule metadata was available at runtime. But in
production (presumably AOT) builds, the optimizer runs and removes the JIT-
specific metadata.
However, there are cases where apps that want to use JIT in production, and
still make an optimized build. In this case, the JIT-specific metadata would
be erroneously removed. This commit solves that problem by adding an
`ngJitMode` global variable which guards all `setNgModuleScope` calls. An
optimizer can be configured to statically define this global to be `false`
for AOT-only builds, causing the extra metadata to be stripped.
A configuration for Terser used by the CLI is provided in `tooling.ts` which
sets `ngJitMode` to `false` when building AOT apps.

The Ivy template type-checker is capable of inferring the type of a
structural directive (such as NgForOf<T>). Previously, this was done with
fullTemplateTypeCheck: true, even if strictTemplates was false. View Engine
previously did not do this inference, and so this causes breakages if the
type of the template context is not what the user expected.
In particular, consider the template:
```html
<div *ngFor="let user of users as all">
{{user.index}} out of {{all.length}}
</div>
```
As long as `users` is an array, this seems reasonable, because it appears
that `all` is an alias for the `users` array. However, this is misleading.
In reality, `NgForOf` is rendered with a template context that contains
both a `$implicit` value (for the loop variable `user`) as well as a
`ngForOf` value, which is the actual value assigned to `all`. The type of
`NgForOf`'s template context is `NgForContext<T>`, which declares `ngForOf`'s
type to be `NgIterable<T>`, which does not have a `length` property (due to
its incorporation of the `Iterable` type).
This commit stops the template type-checker from inferring template context
types unless strictTemplates is set (and strictInputTypes is not disabled).

Previously, the ngtsc compiler attempted to reuse analysis work from the
previous program during an incremental build. To do this, it had to prove
that the work was safe to reuse - that no changes made to the new program
would invalidate the previous analysis.
The implementation of this had a significant design flaw: if the previous
program had errors, the previous analysis would be missing significant
information, and the dependency graph extracted from it would not be
sufficient to determine which files should be re-analyzed to fill in the
gaps. This often meant that the build output after an error was resolved
would be wholly incorrect.
This commit switches ngtsc to take a simpler approach to incremental
rebuilds. Instead of attempting to reuse prior analysis work, the entire
program is re-analyzed with each compilation. This is actually not as
expensive as one might imagine - analysis is a fairly small part of overall
compilation time.
Based on the dependency graph extracted during this analysis, the compiler
then can make accurate decisions on whether to emit specific files. A new
suite of tests is added to validate behavior in the presence of source code
level errors.
This new approach is dramatically simpler than the previous algorithm, and
should always produce correct results for a semantically correct program.s

Originally, QueryList implemented Iterable and provided a Symbol.iterator
on its prototype. This caused issues with tree-shaking, so QueryList was
refactored and the Symbol.iterator added in its constructor instead. As
part of this change, QueryList no longer implemented Iterable directly.
Unfortunately, this meant that QueryList was no longer assignable to
Iterable or, consequently, NgIterable. NgIterable is used for NgFor's input,
so this meant that QueryList was not usable (in a type sense) for NgFor
iteration. View Engine's template type checking would not catch this, but
Ivy's did.
As a fix, this commit adds the declaration (but not the implementation) of
the Symbol.iterator function back to QueryList. This has no runtime effect,
so it doesn't affect tree-shaking of QueryList, but it ensures that
QueryList is assignable to NgIterable and thus usable with NgFor.

Previously, the compiler assumed that all TS files logically within a
project existed under one or more "root directories". If the TS compiler
option `rootDir` or `rootDirs` was set, they would dictate the root
directories in use, otherwise the current directory was used.
Unfortunately this assumption was unfounded - it's common for projects
without explicit `rootDirs` to import from files outside the current
working directory. In such cases the `LogicalProjectStrategy` would attempt
to generate imports into those files, and fail. This would lead to no
`ReferenceEmitStrategy` being able to generate an import, and end in a
compiler assertion failure.
This commit introduces a new strategy to use when there are no `rootDirs`
explicitly present, the `RelativePathStrategy`. It uses simpler, filesystem-

piece of information it returns describes the origin of the parameter's

residing in `/testing`, the file
`/esm2015/testing/src/nested/internal.js` has its typings file at

In flat bundle formats, multiple classes that have the same name can be
suffixed to become unique. In ES5-like bundles this results in the outer
declaration from having a different name from the "implementation"
declaration within the class' IIFE, as the implementation declaration
may not have been suffixed.
As an example, the following code would fail to have a `Directive`
decorator as ngcc would search for `__decorate` calls that refer to
`AliasedDirective$1` by name, whereas the `__decorate` call actually
uses the `AliasedDirective` name.
```javascript
var AliasedDirective$1 = /** @class */ (function () {
function AliasedDirective() {}
AliasedDirective = tslib_1.__decorate([
Directive({ selector: '[someDirective]' }),

While processing class metadata, ngtsc generates a `setClassMetadata()`
call which (among other things) contains info about property decorators.
Previously, processing getter/setter pairs with some of ngcc's
`ReflectionHost`s resulted in multiple metadata entries for the same
property, which resulted in duplicate object keys, which in turn causes
an error in ES5 strict mode.
This commit fixes it by ensuring that there are no duplicate property
names in the `setClassMetadata()` calls.
In addition, `generateSetClassMetadataCall()` is updated to treat
`ClassMember#decorators: []` the same as `ClassMember.decorators: null`
(i.e. omitting the `ClassMember` from the generated `setClassMetadata()`
call). Alternatively, ngcc's `ReflectionHost`s could be updated to do
this transformation (`decorators: []` --> `decorators: null`) when
reflecting on class members, but this would require changes in many
places and be less future-proof.
For example, given a class such as:
```ts
class Foo {
@Input() get bar() { return 'bar'; }
set bar(value: any) {}
}
```
...previously the generated `setClassMetadata()` call would look like:
```ts
ɵsetClassMetadata(..., {
bar: [{type: Input}],
bar: [],

During incremental compilations, ngtsc needs to know which metadata
from a previous compilation can be reused, versus which metadata has to
be recomputed as some dependency was updated. Changes to
directives/components should cause the NgModule in which they are
declared to be recompiled, as the NgModule's compilation is dependent
on its directives/components.
When a dependent source file of a directive/component is updated,
however, a more subtle dependency should also cause to NgModule's source
file to be invalidated. During the reconciliation of state from a
previous compilation into the new program, the component's source file
is invalidated because one of its dependency has changed, ergo the
NgModule needs to be invalidated as well. Up until now, this implicit
dependency was not imposed on the NgModule. Additionally, any change to
a dependent file may influence the module scope to change, so all
components within the module must be invalidated as well.

For abstract directives, i.e. directives without a selector, it may
happen that their constructor is called explicitly from a subclass,
hence its parameters are not required to be valid for Angular's DI
purposes. Prior to this commit however, having an abstract directive
with a constructor that has parameters that are not eligible for
Angular's DI would produce a compilation error.
A similar scenario may occur for `@Injectable`s, where an explicit
`use*` definition allows for the constructor to be irrelevant. For
example, the situation where `useFactory` is specified allows for the
constructor to be called explicitly with any value, so its constructor
parameters are not required to be valid. For `@Injectable`s this is
handled by generating a DI factory function that throws.
This commit implements the same solution for abstract directives, such
that a compilation error is avoided while still producing an error at
runtime if the type is instantiated implicitly by Angular's DI
mechanism.

In Angular View Engine, there are two kinds of decorator inheritance:
1) both the parent and child classes have decorators
This case is supported by InheritDefinitionFeature, which merges some fields
of the definitions (such as the inputs or queries).
2) only the parent class has a decorator
If the child class is missing a decorator, the compiler effectively behaves
as if the parent class' decorator is applied to the child class as well.
This is the "undecorated child" scenario, and this commit adds a migration
to ngcc to support this pattern in Ivy.
This migration has 2 phases. First, the NgModules of the application are
scanned for classes in 'declarations' which are missing decorators, but
whose base classes do have decorators. These classes are the undecorated
children. This scan is performed recursively, so even if a declared class
has a base class that itself inherits a decorator, this case is handled.
Next, a synthetic decorator (either @Component or @Directive) is created
on the child class. This decorator copies some critical information such
as 'selector' and 'exportAs', as well as supports any decorated fields
(@Input, etc). A flag is passed to the decorator compiler which causes a
special feature `CopyDefinitionFeature` to be included on the compiled
definition. This feature copies at runtime the remaining aspects of the
parent definition which `InheritDefinitionFeature` does not handle,
completing the "full" inheritance of the child class' decorator from its
parent class.

When upgrading an Angular application to a new version using the Angular
CLI, built-in schematics are being run to update user code from
deprecated patterns to the new way of working. For libraries that have
been built for older versions of Angular however, such schematics have
not been executed which means that deprecated code patterns may still be
present, potentially resulting in incorrect behavior.
Some of the logic of schematics has been ported over to ngcc migrations,
which are automatically run on libraries. These migrations achieve the
same goal of the regular schematics, but operating on published library
sources instead of used code.

Previously, the (currently disabled) undecorated parent migration in
ngcc would produce errors when a base class could not be determined
statically or when a class extends from a class in another package. This

Additionally, inheritance chains were not handled. This commit reworks

In ngcc's migration system, synthetic decorators can be injected into a
compilation to ensure that certain classes are compiled with Angular
logic, where the original library code did not include the necessary
decorators. Prior to this change, synthesized decorators would have a
fake AST structure as associated node and a made-up identifier. In
theory, this may introduce issues downstream:
1) a decorator's node is used for diagnostics, so it must have position
information. Having fake AST nodes without a position is therefore a
problem. Note that this is currently not a problem in practice, as
injected synthesized decorators would not produce any diagnostics.
2) the decorator's identifier should refer to an imported symbol.
Therefore, it is required that the symbol is actually imported.
Moreover, bundle formats such as UMD and CommonJS use namespaces for
imports, so a bare `ts.Identifier` would not be suitable to use as
identifier. This was also not a problem in practice, as the identifier
is only used in the `setClassMetadata` generated code, which is omitted
for synthetically injected decorators.
To remedy these potential issues, this commit makes a decorator's
identifier optional and switches its node over from a fake AST structure
to the class' name.

The template type checking abilities of the Ivy compiler are far more
advanced than the level of template type checking that was previously
done for Angular templates. Up until now, a single compiler option
called "fullTemplateTypeCheck" was available to configure the level
of template type checking. However, now that more advanced type checking
is being done, new errors may surface that were previously not reported,
in which case it may not be feasible to fix all new errors at once.
Having only a single option to disable a large number of template type
checking capabilities does not allow for incrementally addressing newly
reported types of errors. As a solution, this commit introduces some new
compiler options to be able to enable/disable certain kinds of template
type checks on a fine-grained basis.

that case, the template type checker will validate the correctness of

Recently it was made possible to have a directive without selector,
which are referred to as abstract directives. Such directives should not
be registered in an NgModule, but can still contain decorators for
inputs, outputs, queries, etc. The information from these decorators and
the `@Directive()` decorator itself needs to be registered with the
central `MetadataRegistry` so that other areas of the compiler can
request information about a given directive, an example of which is the
template type checker that needs to know about the inputs and outputs of
directives.
Prior to this change, however, abstract directives would only register
themselves with the `MetadataRegistry` as being an abstract directive,
without all of its other metadata like inputs and outputs. This meant
that the template type checker was unable to resolve the inputs and
outputs of these abstract directives, therefore failing to check them
correctly. The typical error would be that some property does not exist
on a DOM element, whereas said property should have been bound to the
abstract directive's input.
This commit fixes the problem by always registering the metadata of a
directive or component with the `MetadataRegistry`. Tests have been
added to ensure abstract directives are handled correctly in the
template type checker, together with tests to verify the form of
abstract directives in declaration files.

Often the types of an `@Input`'s field don't fully reflect the types of
assignable values. This can happen when an input has a getter/setter pair
where the getter always returns a narrow type, and the setter coerces a
wider value down to the narrow type.
For example, you could imagine an input of the form:
```typescript
@Input() get value(): string {
return this._value;
}
set value(v: {toString(): string}) {
this._value = v.toString();
}
```
Here, the getter always returns a `string`, but the setter accepts any value
that can be `toString()`'d, and coerces it to a string.
Unfortunately TypeScript does not actually support this syntax, and so
Angular users are forced to type their setters as narrowly as the getters,
even though at runtime the coercion works just fine.
To support these kinds of patterns (e.g. as used by Material), this commit
adds a compiler feature called "input coercion". When a binding is made to
the 'value' input of a directive like MatInput, the compiler will look for a
static field with the name ngAcceptInputType_value. If such a field is found
the type-checking expression for the input will use the static field's type
instead of the type for the @Input field,allowing for the expression of a
type conversion between the binding expression and the value being written
to the input's field.
To solve the case above, for example, MatInput might write:
```typescript
class MatInput {
// rest of the directive...
static ngAcceptInputType_value: {toString(): string};
}
```

```

This commit refactors the aliasing system to support multiple different
AliasingHost implementations, which control specific aliasing behavior
in ngtsc (see the README.md).
A new host is introduced, the `PrivateExportAliasingHost`. This solves a
longstanding problem in ngtsc regarding support for "monorepo" style private
libraries. These are libraries which are compiled separately from the main
application, and depended upon through TypeScript path mappings. Such
libraries are frequently not in the Angular Package Format and do not have
entrypoints, but rather make use of deep import style module specifiers.
This can cause issues with ngtsc's ability to import a directive given the
module specifier of its NgModule.
For example, if the application uses a directive `Foo` from such a library
`foo`, the user might write:
```typescript
import {FooModule} from 'foo/module';
```
In this case, foo/module.d.ts is path-mapped into the program. Ordinarily
the compiler would see this as an absolute module specifier, and assume that
the `Foo` directive can be imported from the same specifier. For such non-
APF libraries, this assumption fails. Really `Foo` should be imported from
the file which declares it, but there are two problems with this:
1. The compiler would have to reverse the path mapping in order to determine
a path-mapped path to the file (maybe foo/dir.d.ts).
2. There is no guarantee that the file containing the directive is path-
mapped in the program at all.
The compiler would effectively have to "guess" 'foo/dir' as a module
specifier, which may or may not be accurate depending on how the library and
path mapping are set up.
It's strongly desirable that the compiler not break its current invariant
that the module specifier given by the user for the NgModule is always the
module specifier from which directives/pipes are imported. Thus, for any
given NgModule from a particular module specifier, it must always be
possible to import any directives/pipes from the same specifier, no matter
how it's packaged.
To make this possible, when compiling a file containing an NgModule, ngtsc
will automatically add re-exports for any directives/pipes not yet exported
by the user, with a name of the form: ɵngExportɵModuleNameɵDirectiveName
This has several effects:
1. It guarantees anyone depending on the NgModule will be able to import its
directives/pipes from the same specifier.
2. It maintains a stable name for the exported symbol that is safe to depend
on from code on NPM. Effectively, this private exported name will be a
part of the package's .d.ts API, and cannot be changed in a non-breaking
fashion.

Previously, the `FileSystem` abstraction featured a `mkdir()` method. In
`NodeJSFileSystem` (the default `FileSystem` implementation used in
actual code), the method behaved similar to Node.js' `fs.mkdirSync()`
(i.e. failing if any parent directory is missing or the directory exists
already). In contrast, `MockFileSystem` (which is the basis or mock
`FileSystem` implementations used in tests) implemented `mkdir()` as an
alias to `ensureDir()`, which behaved more like Node.js'
`fs.mkdirSync()` with the `recursive` option set to `true` (i.e.
creating any missing parent directories and succeeding if the directory
exists already).

When `ngcc` is running in parallel mode (usually when run from the
command line) and the `createNewEntryPointFormats` option is set to true
(e.g. via the `--create-ivy-entry-points` command line option), it can
happen that two workers end up trying to create the same directory at
the same time. This can lead to a race condition, where both check for
the directory existence, see that the directory does not exist and both
try to create it, with the second failing due the directory's having
already been created by the first one. Note that this only affects
directories and not files, because `ngcc` tasks operate on different
sets of files.
This commit avoids this race condition by allowing `FileSystem`'s
`ensureDir()` method to not fail if one of the directories it is trying
to create already exists (and is indeed a directory). This is fine for
the `ensureDir()` method, since it's purpose is to ensure that the
specified directory exists. So, even if the `mkdir()` call failed
(because the directory exists), `ensureDir()` has still completed its
mission.

Prior to this change, the template type checker would always allow a
value of type `undefined` to be passed into a directive's inputs, even
if the input's type did not allow for it. This was due to how the type
constructor for a directive was generated, where a `Partial` mapped
type was used to allow for inputs to be unset. This essentially
introduces the `undefined` type as acceptable type for all inputs.
This commit removes the `Partial` type from the type constructor, which
means that we can no longer omit any properties that were unset.
Instead, any properties that are not set will still be included in the
type constructor call, having their value assigned to `any`.

```typescript
class NgForOf<T> {
static ngTypeCtor<T>(init: Partial<Pick<NgForOf<T>,

Now this setting has been changed to `enableI18nLegacyMessageFormat`

The `$localize` library uses a new message digest function for

translation files will no longer match the message ids in the code
and so will not be translated.
This commit adds the ability to specify the format of your legacy
translation files, so that the appropriate message id can be rendered

PR Close#32908
In an attempt to be compatible with previous translation files
the Angular compiler was generating instructions that always
included the message id. This was because it was not possible
to accurately re-generate the id from the calls to `$localize()` alone.
In line with https://hackmd.io/EQF4_-atSXK4XWg8eAha2g this
commit changes the compiler so that it only renders ids if they are
"custom" ones provided by the template author.
NOTE:
When translating messages generated by the Angular compiler
from i18n tags in templates, the `$localize.translate()` function
will compute message ids, if no custom id is provided, using a
common digest function that only relies upon the information
available in the `$localize()` calls.
This computed message id will not be the same as the message
ids stored in legacy translation files. Such files will need to be
migrated to use the new common digest function.
This only affects developers who have been trialling `$localize`, have
been calling `loadTranslations()`, and are not exclusively using custom
ids in their templates.

With #31953 we moved the factories for components, directives and pipes into a new field called `ngFactoryDef`, however I decided not to do it for injectables, because they needed some extra logic. These changes set up the `ngFactoryDef` for injectables as well.
For reference, the extra logic mentioned above is that for injectables we have two code paths:
1. For injectables that don't configure how they should be instantiated, we create a `factory` that proxies to `ngFactoryDef`:
```
// Source
@Injectable()
class Service {}
// Output
class Service {
static ngInjectableDef = defineInjectable({
factory: () => Service.ngFactoryFn(),
});
static ngFactoryFn: (t) => new (t || Service)();
}
```
2. For injectables that do configure how they're created, we keep the `ngFactoryDef` and generate the factory based on the metadata:
```
// Source
@Injectable({
useValue: DEFAULT_IMPL,
})
class Service {}
// Output
export class Service {
static ngInjectableDef = defineInjectable({
factory: () => DEFAULT_IMPL,

Recently ng-packagr was updated to include a transform that used to be
done in tsickle (https://github.com/ng-packagr/ng-packagr/pull/1401),
where only constructor parameter decorators are emitted in tsickle's
format, not any of the other decorators.
ngcc used to extract decorators from only a single format, so once it
saw the `ctorParameters` static property it assumed the library is using
the tsickle format. Therefore, none of the `__decorate` calls were
considered. This resulted in missing decorator information, preventing
proper processing of a package.
This commit changes how decorators are extracted by always looking at
both the static properties and the `__decorate` calls, merging these
sources appropriately.

ngcc may need to insert public exports into the bundle's source as well
as to the entry-point's declaration file, as the Ivy compiler may need
to create import statements to internal library types. The way ngcc
knows which exports to add is through the references registry, to which
references to things that require a public export are added by the
various analysis steps that are executed.
One of these analysis steps is the augmentation of declaration files
where functions that return `ModuleWithProviders` are updated so that a
generic type argument is added that corresponds with the `NgModule` that
is actually imported. This type has to be publicly exported, so the
analyzer step has to add the module type to the references registry.
A problem occurs when `ModuleWithProviders` already has a generic type
argument, in which case no update of the declaration file is necessary.
This may happen when 1) ngcc is processing additional bundle formats, so
that the declaration file has already been updated while processing the
first bundle format, or 2) when a package is processed which already
contains the generic type in its source. In both scenarios it may occur
that the referenced `NgModule` type does not yet have a public export,
so it is crucial that a reference to the type is added to the
references registry, which ngcc failed to do.
This commit fixes the issue by always adding the referenced `NgModule`
type to the references registry, so that a public export will always be
created if necessary.

Now that the `$localize` translations are `MessageId` based the
compiler must render `MessageId`s in its generated `$localize` code.
This is because the `MessageId` used by the compiler is computed
from information that does not get passed through to the `$localize`
tagged string.
For example, the generated code for the following template
```html
<div id="static" i18n-title="m|d" title="introduction"></div>
```
will contain these localization statements
```ts
if (ngI18nClosureMode) {
/**
* @desc d
* @meaning m
*/
const MSG_EXTERNAL_8809028065680254561$$APP_SPEC_TS_1 = goog.getMsg("introduction");
I18N_1 = MSG_EXTERNAL_8809028065680254561$$APP_SPEC_TS_1;
}
else {
I18N_1 = $localize \`:m|d@@8809028065680254561:introduction\`;
}
```
Since `$localize` is not able to accurately regenerate the source-message
(and so the `MessageId`) from the generated code, it must rely upon the
`MessageId` being provided explicitly in the generated code.
The compiler now prepends all localized messages with a "metadata block"
containing the id (and the meaning and description if defined).
Note that this metadata block will also allow translation file extraction
from the compiled code - rather than relying on the legacy ViewEngine
extraction code. (This will be implemented post-v9).
Although these metadata blocks add to the initial code size, compile-time
inlining will completely remove these strings and so will not impact on
production bundle size.

In ngcc's reflection host for UMD and CommonJS bundles, custom logic is
present to resolve import details of an identifier. However, this custom
logic is unable to resolve an import for an identifier inside of
declaration files, as such files use the regular ESM import syntax.
As a consequence of this limitation, ngtsc is unable to resolve
`ModuleWithProviders` imports that are declared in an external library.
In that situation, ngtsc determines the type of the actual `NgModule`
that is imported, by looking in the library's declaration files for the
generic type argument on `ModuleWithProviders`. In this process, ngtsc
resolves the import for the `ModuleWithProviders` identifier to verify
that it is indeed the `ModuleWithProviders` type from `@angular/core`.
So, when the UMD reflection host was in use this resolution would fail,
therefore no `NgModule` type could be detected.
This commit fixes the bug by using the regular import resolution logic
in addition to the custom resolution logic that is required for UMD
and CommonJS bundles.

In ESM2015 bundles, a class with decorators may be emitted as follows:
```javascript
var MyClass_1;
let MyClass = MyClass_1 = class MyClass {};
MyClass.decorators = [/* here be decorators */];
```
Such a class has two declarations: the publicly visible `let MyClass`
and the implementation `class MyClass {}` node. In #32539 a refactoring
took place to handle such classes more consistently, however the logic
to find static properties was mistakenly kept identical to its broken
state before the refactor, by looking for static properties on the
implementation symbol (the one for `class MyClass {}`) whereas the
static properties need to be obtained from the symbol corresponding with
the `let MyClass` declaration, as that is where the `decorators`
property is assigned to in the example above.
This commit fixes the behavior by looking for static properties on the
public declaration symbol. This fixes an issue where decorators were not
found for classes that do in fact have decorators, therefore preventing
the classes from being compiled for Ivy.

In ngcc's reflection hosts for compiled JS bundles, such as ESM2015,
special care needs to be taken for classes as there may be an outer
declaration (referred to as "declaration") and an inner declaration
(referred to as "implementation") for a given class. Therefore, there
will also be two `ts.Symbol`s bound per class, and ngcc needs to switch
between those declarations and symbols depending on where certain
information can be found.
Prior to this commit, the `NgccReflectionHost` interface had methods
`getClassSymbol` and `findClassSymbols` that would return a `ts.Symbol`.
These class symbols would be used to kick off compilation of components
using ngtsc, so it is important for these symbols to correspond with the
publicly visible outer declaration of the class. However, the ESM2015
reflection host used to return the `ts.Symbol` for the inner
declaration, if the class was declared as follows:
```javascript
var MyClass = class MyClass {};
```
For the above code, `Esm2015ReflectionHost.getClassSymbol` would return
the `ts.Symbol` corresponding with the `class MyClass {}` declaration,
whereas it should have corresponded with the `var MyClass` declaration.
As a consequence, no `NgModule` could be resolved for the component, so
no components/directives would be in scope for the component. This
resulted in errors during runtime.
This commit resolves the issue by introducing a `NgccClassSymbol` that
contains references to both the outer and inner `ts.Symbol`, instead of
just a single `ts.Symbol`. This avoids the unclarity of whether a
`ts.Symbol` corresponds with the outer or inner declaration.

better understand these numbers and identify potential areas of

its only remaining property, `hasProcessedTypings`) was no longer used,

In the past, a task's processability didn't use to be known in advance.
It was possible that a task would be created and added to the queue
during the analysis phase and then later (during the compilation phase)
it would be found out that the task (i.e. the associated format
property) was not processable.
As a result, certain checks had to be delayed, until a task's processing
had started or even until all tasks had been processed. Examples of
checks that had to be delayed are:
- Whether a task can be skipped due to `compileAllFormats: false`.
- Whether there were entry-points for which no format at all was
successfully processed.
It turns out that (as made clear by the refactoring in 9537b2ff8), once
a task starts being processed it is expected to either complete
successfully (with the associated format being processed) or throw an
error (in which case the process will exit). In other words, a task's
processability is known in advance.
This commit takes advantage of this fact by moving certain checks
earlier in the process (e.g. in the analysis phase instead of the
compilation phase), which in turn allows avoiding some unnecessary work.
More specifically:
- When `compileAllFormats` is `false`, tasks are created _only_ for the
first suitable format property for each entry-point, since the rest of
the tasks would have been skipped during the compilation phase anyway.
This has the following advantages:
1. It avoids the slight overhead of generating extraneous tasks and
then starting to process them (before realizing they should be
skipped).
2. In a potential future parallel execution mode, unnecessary tasks
might start being processed at the same time as the first (useful)
task, even if their output would be later discarded, wasting
resources. Alternatively, extra logic would have to be added to
prevent this from happening. The change in this commit avoids these
issues.
- When an entry-point is not processable, an error will be thrown
upfront without having to wait for other tasks to be processed before
failing.

Previously, `ngcc`'s programmatic API would run and complete
synchronously. This was necessary for specific usecases (such as how the
`@angular/cli` invokes `ngcc` as part of the TypeScript module
resolution process), but not for others (e.g. running `ivy-ngcc` as a
`postinstall` script).
This commit adds a new option (`async`) that enables turning on
asynchronous execution. I.e. it signals that the caller is OK with the
function call to complete asynchronously, which allows `ngcc` to
potentially run in a more efficient mode.
Currently, there is no difference in the way tasks are executed in sync
vs async mode, but this change sets the ground for adding new execution
options (that require asynchronous operation), such as processing tasks
in parallel on multiple processes.
NOTE:
When using the programmatic API, the default value for `async` is
`false`, thus retaining backwards compatibility.
When running `ngcc` from the command line (i.e. via the `ivy-ngcc`

The problem was caused by the fact that extra statements were not appended to the temporary vars block, so they were missing in generated code. This commit updated the logic to use the `convertPropertyBinding`, which contains the necessary code to append extra statements. The `convertExpressionBinding` function was removed as it duplicates the `convertPropertyBinding` one (for the most part) and is no longer used.

Previously the template compiler would generate the same jsdoc comment
block for `$localize` as for `goog.getMsg()`. But it turns out that
the closure compiler will complain if the `@desc` and `@meaning`
tags are used for non-`getMsg()` calls.
For now we do not generate the comments for `$localize` calls. They are
not being used at the moment.
In the future it would be good to be able to extract the descriptions and
meanings from the `$localize` calls rather than relying upon the `getMsg()`
calls, which we do now. So we need to find a workaround for this constraint.

This commit changes the Angular compiler (ivy-only) to generate `$localize`
tagged strings for component templates that use `i18n` attributes.
BREAKING CHANGE
Since `$localize` is a global function, it must be included in any applications
that use i18n. This is achieved by importing the `@angular/localize` package
into an appropriate bundle, where it will be executed before the renderer
needs to call `$localize`. For CLI based projects, this is best done in
the `polyfills.ts` file.
```ts
import '@angular/localize';
```
For non-CLI applications this could be added as a script to the index.html
file or another suitable script file.

Previously, any diagnostics reported during the compilation of an
entry-point would not be shown to the user, but either be ignored or
cause a hard crash in case of a `FatalDiagnosticError`. This is
unfortunate, as such error instances contain information on which code
was responsible for producing the error, whereas only its error message
would not. Therefore, it was quite hard to determine where the error
originates from.
This commit introduces behavior to deal with error diagnostics in a more
graceful way. Such diagnostics will still cause the compilation to fail,
however the error message now contains formatted diagnostics.

The Angular compiler has an emulation system for various kinds of
filesystems and runs its testcases for all those filesystems. This
allows to verify that the compiler behaves correctly in all of the
supported platforms, without needing to run the tests on the actual
platforms.
Previously, the emulated Windows mode would normalize rooted paths to
always include a drive letter, whereas the native mode did not perform
this normalization. The consequence of this discrepancy was that running
the tests in native Windows was behaving differently compared to how
emulated Windows mode behaves, potentially resulting in test failures
in native Windows that would succeed for emulated Windows.
This commit adds logic to ensure that paths are normalized equally for
emulated Windows and native Windows mode, therefore resolving the
discrepancy.

If a project has nested projects that contain node_modules folders
that get processed by ngcc, it can be confusing when the ngcc
version changes since the error message is very generic:
```
The ngcc compiler has changed since the last ngcc build.
Please completely remove `node_modules` and try again.
```
This commit augments the error message with the path of
the entry-point that failed so that it is more obvious which
node_modules folder to remove.
BREAKING CHANGE:
This commit removes the public export of `hasBeenProcessed()`.
This was exported to be availble to the CLI integration but was never
used. The change to the function signature is a breaking change in itself
so we remove the function altogether to simplify and lower the public
API surface going forward.

Reworks the compiler to output the factories for directives, components and pipes under a new static field called `ngFactoryFn`, instead of the usual `factory` property in their respective defs. This should eventually allow us to inject any kind of decorated class (e.g. a pipe).
**Note:** these changes are the first part of the refactor and they don't include injectables. I decided to leave injectables for a follow-up PR, because there's some more cases we need to handle when it comes to their factories. Furthermore, directives, components and pipes make up most of the compiler output tests that need to be refactored and it'll make follow-up PRs easier to review if the tests are cleaned up now.
This is part of the larger refactor for FW-1468.

When ngcc is called for a specific entry-point, it has to determine
which dependencies to transitively process. To accomplish this, ngcc
traverses the full import graph of the entry-points it encounters, for
which it uses a dependency host to find all module imports. Since
imports look different in the various bundle formats ngcc supports, a
specific dependency host is used depending on the information provided
in an entry-points `package.json` file. If there's not enough
information in the `package.json` file for ngcc to be able to determine
which dependency host to use, ngcc would fail with an error.
If, however, the entry-point is not compiled by Angular, it is not
necessary to process any of its dependencies. None of them can have
been compiled by Angular so ngcc does not need to know about them.
Therefore, this commit changes the behavior to avoid recursing into
dependencies of entry-points that are not compiled by Angular.
In particular, this fixes an issue for packages that have dependencies
on the `date-fns` package. This package has various secondary
entry-points that have a `package.json` file only containing a `typings`
field, without providing additional fields for ngcc to know which
dependency host to use. By not needing a dependency host at all, the
error is avoided.

In ngc is was valid to set the "flatModuleOutFile" option to "null". This is sometimes
necessary if a tsconfig extends from another one but the "fatModuleOutFile" option
needs to be unset (note that "undefined" does not exist as value in JSON)
Now if ngtsc is used to compile the project, ngtsc will fail with an error because it
tries to do string manipulation on the "flatModuleOutFile". This happens because
ngtsc only skips flat module indices if the option is set to "undefined".
Since this is not compatible with what was supported in ngc and such exceptions
should be avoided, the flat module check is now aligned with ngc.
```

```
Additionally setting the `flatModuleOutFile` option to an empty string
currently results in unexpected behavior. No errors is thrown, but the
flat module index file will be `.ts` (no file name; just extension).
This is now also fixed by treating an empty string similarly to
`null`.

Previously, ngtsc attempted to use the .d.ts schema for HTML elements to
check bindings to DOM properties. However, the TypeScript lib.dom.d.ts
schema does not perfectly align with the Angular DomElementSchemaRegistry,
and these inconsistencies would cause issues in apps. There is also the
concern of supporting both CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA and NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA which
would have been very difficult to do in the existing system.
With this commit, the DomElementSchemaRegistry is employed in ngtsc to check
bindings to the DOM. Previous work on producing template diagnostics is used
to support generation of this different kind of error with the same high
quality of error message.

Historically, the Angular Compiler has produced both native TypeScript
diagnostics (called ts.Diagnostics) and its own internal Diagnostic format
(called an api.Diagnostic). This was done because TypeScript ts.Diagnostics
cannot be produced for files not in the ts.Program, and template type-
checking diagnostics are naturally produced for external .html template
files.
This design isn't optimal for several reasons:
1) Downstream tooling (such as the CLI) must support multiple formats of
diagnostics, adding to the maintenance burden.
2) ts.Diagnostics have gotten a lot better in recent releases, with support
for suggested changes, highlighting of the code in question, etc. None of
these changes have been of any benefit for api.Diagnostics, which have
continued to be reported in a very primitive fashion.
3) A future plugin model will not support anything but ts.Diagnostics, so
generating api.Diagnostics is a blocker for ngtsc-as-a-plugin.
4) The split complicates both the typings and the testing of ngtsc.
To fix this issue, this commit changes template type-checking to produce
ts.Diagnostics instead. Instead of reporting a special kind of diagnostic
for external template files, errors in a template are always reported in
a ts.Diagnostic that highlights the portion of the template which contains
the error. When this template text is distinct from the source .ts file
(for example, when the template is parsed from an external resource file),
additional contextual information links the error back to the originating
component.
A template error can thus be reported in 3 separate ways, depending on how
the template was configured:
1) For inline template strings which can be directly mapped to offsets in
the TS code, ts.Diagnostics point to real ranges in the source.
This is the case if an inline template is used with a string literal or a
"no-substitution" string. For example:
```typescript
@Component({..., template: `
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
`})
export class TestCmp {
bar: string;
}
```
The above template contains an error (no 'baz' property of `TestCmp`). The
error produced by TS will look like:
```
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
~~~
test.ts:2:11 - error TS2339: Property 'baz' does not exist on type 'TestCmp'. Did you mean 'bar'?
```
2) For template strings which cannot be directly mapped to offsets in the
TS code, a logical offset into the template string will be included in
the error message. For example:
```typescript
const SOME_TEMPLATE = '<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>';
@Component({..., template: SOME_TEMPLATE})
export class TestCmp {
bar: string;
}
```
Because the template is a reference to another variable and is not an
inline string constant, the compiler will not be able to use "absolute"
positions when parsing the template. As a result, errors will report logical
offsets into the template string:
```
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
~~~
test.ts (TestCmp template):2:15 - error TS2339: Property 'baz' does not exist on type 'TestCmp'.
test.ts:3:28
@Component({..., template: TEMPLATE})
~~~~~~~~
Error occurs in the template of component TestCmp.
```
This error message uses logical offsets into the template string, and also
gives a reference to the `TEMPLATE` expression from which the template was
parsed. This helps in locating the component which contains the error.
3) For external templates (templateUrl), the error message is delivered
within the HTML template file (testcmp.html) instead, and additional
information contextualizes the error on the templateUrl expression from
which the template file was determined:
```
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
~~~
testcmp.html:2:15 - error TS2339: Property 'baz' does not exist on type 'TestCmp'.
test.ts:10:31
@Component({..., templateUrl: './testcmp.html'})
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Error occurs in the template of component TestCmp.
```

When a template contains a binding without a value, the template parser
creates an `EmptyExpr` node. This would previously be translated into
an `undefined` value, which would cause a crash downstream as `undefined`
is not included in the allowed type, so it was not handled properly.
This commit prevents the crash by returning an actual expression for empty
bindings.

This commit switches the default value of the enableIvy flag to true.
Applications that run ngc will now by default receive an Ivy build!
This does not affect the way Bazel builds in the Angular repo work, since
those are still switched based on the value of the --define=compile flag.
Additionally, projects using @angular/bazel still use View Engine builds
by default.
Since most of the Angular repo tests are still written against View Engine
(particularly because we still publish VE packages to NPM), this switch
also requires lots of `enableIvy: false` flags in tsconfigs throughout the
repo.
Congrats to the team for reaching this milestone!

This option makes ngc behave as tsc, and was originally implemented before

Previously, `ngcc` assumed that if a format property was defined in
`package.json` it would point to a valid format-path (i.e. a file that
is an entry-point for a specific format). This is generally the case,
except if a format property is set to a non-string value (such as
`package.json`) - either directly in the `package.json` (which is unusual)
or in ngcc.config.js (which is a valid usecase, when one wants a
format property to be ignored by `ngcc`).
For example, the following config file would cause `ngcc` to throw:
```
module.exports = {
packages: {
'test-package': {
entryPoints: {
'.': {
override: {
fesm2015: undefined,
},
},
},
},
},
};
```
This commit fixes it by ensuring that only format properties whose value
is a string are considered by `ngcc`.
For reference, this regression was introduced in #32052.

During the dependency analysis phase of ngcc, imports are resolved to
files on disk according to certain module resolution rules. Since module
specifiers are typically missing extensions, or can refer to index.js
barrel files within a directory, the module resolver attempts several
postfixes when searching for a module import on disk. Module specifiers
that already include an extension, however, would fail to be resolved as
ngcc's module resolver failed to check the location on disk without
adding any postfixes.
Closes#32097
PR Close#32181
During the recursive processing of dependencies, ngcc resolves the
requested file to an actual location on disk, by testing various
extensions. For recursive calls however, the path is known to have been
resolved in the module resolver. Therefore, it is safe to move the path
resolution to the initial caller into the recursive process.
Note that this is not expected to improve the performance of ngcc, as
the call to `resolveFileWithPostfixes` is known to succeed immediately,
as the provided path is known to exist without needing to add any
postfixes. Furthermore, the FileSystem caches whether files exist, so
the additional check that we used to do was cheap.
PR Close#32181
ngcc needs to solve a unique problem when compiling typings for an
entrypoint: it must resolve a declaration within a .js file to its
representation in a .d.ts file. Since such .d.ts files can be used in deep
imports without ever being referenced from the "root" .d.ts, it's not enough
to simply match exported types to the root .d.ts. ngcc must build an index
of all .d.ts files.
Previously, this operation had a bug: it scanned all .d.ts files in the
.d.ts program, not only those within the package. Thus, if a class in the
program happened to share a name with a class exported from a dependency's
.d.ts, ngcc might accidentally modify the wrong .d.ts file, causing a
variety of issues downstream.
To fix this issue, ngcc's .d.ts scanner now limits the .d.ts files it
indexes to only those declared in the current package.

One of the compiler's tasks is to enumerate the exports of a given ES
module. This can happen for example to resolve `foo.bar` where `foo` is a
namespace import:
```typescript
import * as foo from './foo';
@NgModule({
directives: [foo.DIRECTIVES],
})
```
In this case, the compiler must enumerate the exports of `foo.ts` in order
to evaluate the expression `foo.DIRECTIVES`.
When this operation occurs under ngcc, it must deal with the different
module formats and types of exports that occur. In commonjs code, a problem
arises when certain exports are downleveled.
```typescript
export const DIRECTIVES = [
FooDir,
BarDir,
];
```
can be downleveled to:
```javascript
exports.DIRECTIVES = [
FooDir,
BarDir,
```
Previously, ngtsc and ngcc expected that any export would have an associated
`ts.Declaration` node. `export class`, `export function`, etc. all retain
`ts.Declaration`s even when downleveled. But the `export const` construct
above does not. Therefore, ngcc would not detect `DIRECTIVES` as an export
of `foo.ts`, and the evaluation of `foo.DIRECTIVES` would therefore fail.
To solve this problem, the core concept of an exported `Declaration`
according to the `ReflectionHost` API is split into a `ConcreteDeclaration`
which has a `ts.Declaration`, and an `InlineDeclaration` which instead has
a `ts.Expression`. Differentiating between these allows ngcc to return an
`InlineDeclaration` for `DIRECTIVES` and correctly keep track of this
export.

In Angular today, the following pattern works:
```typescript
export class BaseDir {
constructor(@Inject(ViewContainerRef) protected vcr: ViewContainerRef) {}
}
@Directive({
selector: '[child]',
})
export class ChildDir extends BaseDir {
// constructor inherited from BaseDir
}
```
A decorated child class can inherit a constructor from an undecorated base
class, so long as the base class has metadata of its own (for JIT mode).
This pattern works regardless of metadata in AOT.
In Angular Ivy, this pattern does not work: without the @Directive
annotation identifying the base class as a directive, information about its
constructor parameters will not be captured by the Ivy compiler. This is a
result of Ivy's locality principle, which is the basis behind a number of
compilation optimizations.
As a solution, @Directive() without a selector will be interpreted as a
"directive base class" annotation. Such a directive cannot be declared in an
NgModule, but can be inherited from. To implement this, a few changes are
made to the ngc compiler:
* the error for a selector-less directive is now generated when an NgModule
declaring it is processed, not when the directive itself is processed.
* selector-less directives are not tracked along with other directives in
the compiler, preventing other errors (like their absence in an NgModule)
from being generated from them.
