Since I was learning the codebase and had a hard time understanding what was going on I've done a
bunch of changes in one commit that under normal circumstances should have been split into several
commits. Because this code is likely going to be overwritten with Misko's changes I'm not going to
spend the time with trying to split this up.
Overall I've done the following:
- I processed review feedback from #34307
- I did a bunch of renaming to make the code easier to understand
- I refactored some internal functions that were either inefficient or hard to read
- I also updated lots of type signatures to correct them and to remove many casts in the code
PR Close#34307
Prior to this change, in Ivy mode ngStyle/ngClass would accidentally emit value changes for static
(string-based) values even if the value itself had not changed. This patch ensures that
the style/class diffing code is more strict and when it signals ngClass/ngStyle that there has been
a value change.
Fixes#34336, #34444
PR Close#34307
Prior to ivy, undefined values passed in an object to the
ngStyle directive were ignored. Restore this behavior by
ignoring keys that point to undefined values.
