BREAKING CHANGE:
toPromise is no longer an instance method of the `Observable` returned
by Angular, and fromPromise is no longer available as a static method.
The easiest way to account for this change in applications is to import
the auto-patching modules from rxjs, which will automatically add these
operators back to the Observable prototype.
```
import 'rxjs/add/operator/toPromise';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/fromPromise';
```
Closes#5542Closes#5626
Have DomElementSchemaRegistry support namespaced elements,
so that it does not fail when directives are applied in SVG (or xlink).
Without this fix, directives or property bindings cannot be
used in SVG.

BREAKING CHANGE:
`<whatever />` used to be expanded to `<whatever></whatever>`.
The parser now follows the HTML5 spec more closely.
Only void and foreign elements can be self closed.
Closes#5591
BREAKING CHANGE
End tags used to be tolerated for void elements with no content.
They are no more allowed so that we more closely follow the HTML5 spec.
Make `NoReflectionCapabilities` conform to the `PlatformReflectionCapbilities`
api, which prevents some confusing error messages.

BREAKING CHANGE:
You can no longer bootstrap a WebWorker or Isolate using `bootstrap` or `bootstrapWebWorker`. Instead you have to do the following:
In TypeScript:
```TypeScript
// index.js
import {WORKER_RENDER_PLATFORM, WORKER_RENDER_APPLICATION, WORKER_SCRIPT} from "angular2/platforms/worker_render";
import {platform} from "angular2/platform";
platform([WORKER_RENDER_PLATFORM])
.application([WORKER_RENDER_APPLICATION, new Provider(WORKER_SCRIPT, {useValue: "loader.js"});
```
```JavaScript
// loader.js
importScripts("https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es6-shim/0.33.3/es6-shim.js", "https://jspm.io/system@0.16.js", "angular2/web_worker/worker.js");
System.import("app");
```
```TypeScript
// app.ts
import {Component, View} from "angular2/core";
import {WORKER_APP_PLATFORM, setupWebWorker} from "angular2/platforms/worker_app";
import {platform} from "angular2/platform";
@Component({
selector: "hello-world"
})
@View({
template: "<h1>Hello {{name}}</h1>
})
export class HelloWorld {
name: string = "Jane";
}
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupWebWorker, optionalProviders?)
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
```
In Dart:
```Dart
// index.dart
import "angular2/platform.dart";
import "angular2/platforms/worker_render.dart";
main() {
platform([WORKER_RENDER_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(initIsolate("my_worker.dart"));
}
```
```Dart
// background_index.dart
import "angular2/platform.dart";
import "angular2/platforms/worker_app.dart";
import "package:angular2/src/core/reflection/reflection.dart";
import "package:angular2/src/core/reflection/reflection_capabilities.dart";
@Component(
selector: "hello-world"
)
@View(
template: "<h1>Hello {{name}}</h1>"
)
class HelloWorld {
String name = "Jane";
}
main(List<String> args, SendPort replyTo) {
reflector.reflectionCapabilities = new ReflectionCapabilities();
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupIsolate(replyTo))
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
}
```
You should no longer import from the `angular2/web_worker/worker` and `angular2/web_worker/ui` paths. Instead you can now import directly from core, directives, etc..
The WebWorkerApplication class has been removed. If you want to use ServiceMessageBroker or ClientMessageBroker on the render thread, you must inject their factories via DI.
If you need to use the MessageBus on the render thread you must also obtain it through DI.

The component fixture returned from the test component builder
now exports `nativeElement` and `componentInstance` members
directly. They are also still available on the `debugElement`.
See #5385
move to new RxJS distribution.
BREAKING CHANGE:
RxJS imports now are via `rxjs` instead of `@reactivex/rxjs`
Individual operators can be imported `import 'rxjs/operators/map'`
Change beforeEachBindings to beforeEachProviders but preserve the
@deprecated method beforeEachBindings, in order to keep a working
deprecation warning
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, pipes that wanted to be notified when they were destroyed
would implement the PipeOnDestroy interface and name the callback
`onDestroy`. This change removes the PipeOnDestroy interface and
instead uses Angular's lifecycle interface `OnDestroy`, with the
`ngOnDestroy` method.
Before:
```
import {Pipe, PipeOnDestroy} from 'angular2/angular2';
@Pipe({pure: false})
export class MyPipe implements PipeOnDestroy {
onDestroy() {}
}
```
After:
import {Pipe, OnDestroy} from 'angular2/angular2';
@Pipe({pure: false})
export class MyPipe implements PipeOnDestroy {
ngOnDestroy() {}
}
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, components that would implement lifecycle interfaces would include methods
like "onChanges" or "afterViewInit." Given that components were at risk of using such
names without realizing that Angular would call the methods at different points of
the component lifecycle. This change adds an "ng" prefix to all lifecycle hook methods,
far reducing the risk of an accidental name collision.
To fix, just rename these methods:
* onInit
* onDestroy
* doCheck
* onChanges
* afterContentInit
* afterContentChecked
* afterViewInit
* afterViewChecked
* _Router Hooks_
* onActivate
* onReuse
* onDeactivate
* canReuse
* canDeactivate
To:
* ngOnInit,
* ngOnDestroy,
* ngDoCheck,
* ngOnChanges,
* ngAfterContentInit,
* ngAfterContentChecked,
* ngAfterViewInit,
* ngAfterViewChecked
* _Router Hooks_
* routerOnActivate
* routerOnReuse
* routerOnDeactivate
* routerCanReuse
* routerCanDeactivate
The names of lifecycle interfaces and enums have not changed, though interfaces
have been updated to reflect the new method names.
Closes#5036
Use a zone counting timeouts and microtasks to determine when a test
is finished, instead of requiring the test writer to use
injectAsync and return a promise.
See #5322
This is a big change. @matsko also deserves much of the credit for the implementation.
Previously, `ComponentInstruction`s held all the state for async components.
Now, we introduce several subclasses for `Instruction` to describe each type of navigation.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Redirects now use the Link DSL syntax. Before:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/foo', redirectTo: '/bar' },
{ path: '/bar', component: BarCmp }
])
```
After:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/foo', redirectTo: ['Bar'] },
{ path: '/bar', component: BarCmp, name: 'Bar' }
])
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
This also introduces `useAsDefault` in the RouteConfig, which makes cases like lazy-loading
and encapsulating large routes with sub-routes easier.
Previously, you could use `redirectTo` like this to expand a URL like `/tab` to `/tab/posts`:
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/tab', redirectTo: '/tab/users' }
{ path: '/tab', component: TabsCmp, name: 'Tab' }
])
AppCmp { ... }
Now the recommended way to handle this is case is to use `useAsDefault` like so:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/tab', component: TabsCmp, name: 'Tab' }
])
AppCmp { ... }
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/posts', component: PostsCmp, useAsDefault: true, name: 'Posts' },
{ path: '/users', component: UsersCmp, name: 'Users' }
])
TabsCmp { ... }
```
In the above example, you can write just `['/Tab']` and the route `Users` is automatically selected as a child route.

A quoted expression is:
quoted expression = prefix `:` uninterpretedExpression
prefix = identifier
uninterpretedExpression = arbitrary string
Example: "route:/some/route"
Quoted expressions are parsed into a new AST node type Quote. The `prefix` part of the
node must be a legal identifier. The `uninterpretedExpression` part of the node is an
arbitrary string that Angular does not interpret.
This feature is meant to be used together with template AST transformers introduced in
a43ed79ee7. The
transformer would interpret the quoted expression and convert it into a standard AST no
longer containing quoted expressions. Angular will continue compiling the resulting AST
normally.
