Some declaration files may not be referenced from an entry-point's
main typings file, as it may declare types that are only used internally.
ngcc has logic to include declaration files based on all source files,
to ensure internal declaration files are available.
For packages following APF layout, however, this logic was insufficient.
Consider an entry-point with base path of `/esm2015/testing` and typings
residing in `/testing`, the file
`/esm2015/testing/src/nested/internal.js` has its typings file at
`/testing/src/nested/internal.d.ts`. Previously, the declaration was
assumed to be located at `/esm2015/testing/testing/internal.d.ts` (by
means of `/esm2015/testing/src/nested/../../testing/internal.d.ts`)
which is not where the declaration file can be found. This commit
resolves the issue by looking in the correct directory.

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]' }),
], AliasedDirective);
return AliasedDirective;
}());

instead finding the declaration and matching it with both the outer
and inner declaration.

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: [],
});
```
The same class will now result in a call like:
```ts

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.

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.

// 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,

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

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.

```
Such a class has two declarations: the publicly visible `let MyClass`

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.

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.

Previously, `ngcc` needed to store some metadata related to the
processing of each entry-point. This metadata was stored in a `Map`, in
the form of `EntryPointProcessingMetadata` and passed around as needed.
After some recent refactorings, it turns out that this metadata (with
its only remaining property, `hasProcessedTypings`) was no longer used,
because the relevant information was extracted from other sources (such
as the `processDts` property on `Task`s).
This commit cleans up the code by removing the unused code and types.

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`
script), it runs in async mode (to be able to take advantage of future
optimizations), but that is transparent to the caller.

In order to prevent `ngcc`'d packages (e.g. libraries) from getting
accidentally published, `ngcc` overwrites the `prepublishOnly` npm
script to log a warning and exit with an error. In case we want to
restore the original script (e.g. "undo" `ngcc` processing), we keep a
backup of the original `prepublishOnly` script.
Previously, running `ngcc` a second time (e.g. for a different format)
would create a backup of the overwritten `prepublishOnly` script (if
there was originally no `prepublishOnly` script). As a result, if we
ever tried to "undo" `ngcc` processing and restore the original
`prepublishOnly` script, the error-throwing script would be restored
instead.
This commit fixes it by ensuring that we only back up a `prepublishOnly`
script, iff it is not the one we created ourselves (i.e. the

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Previously if only a component template changed then we would know to
rebuild its component source file. But the compilation was incorrect if the
component was part of an NgModule, since we were not capturing the
compilation scope information that had a been acquired from the NgModule
and was not being regenerated since we were not needing to recompile
the NgModule.
Now we register compilation scope information for each component, via the
`ComponentScopeRegistry` interface, so that it is available for incremental
compilation.
The `ComponentDecoratorHandler` now reads the compilation scope from a
`ComponentScopeReader` interface which is implemented as a compound
reader composed of the original `LocalModuleScopeRegistry` and the

Publishing of NGCC packages should not be allowed. It is easy for a user to publish an NGCC'd version of a library they have workspace libraries which are being used in a workspace application.
If a users builds a library and afterwards the application, the library will be transformed with NGCC and since NGCC taints the distributed files that should be published.

ngcc analyzes the dependency structure of the entrypoints it needs to
process, as the compilation of entrypoints is ordering sensitive: any
dependent upon entrypoint must be compiled before its dependees. As part
of the analysis of the dependency graph, it is detected when a
dependency of entrypoint is not installed, in which case that entrypoint
will be marked as ignored.
For libraries that work with Angular Universal to run in NodeJS, imports
into builtin NodeJS modules can be present. ngcc's dependency analyzer
can only resolve imports within the TypeScript compilation, which
builtin modules are not part of. Therefore, such imports would
erroneously cause the entrypoint to become ignored.

Previously, `ngcc` would avoid processing a `formatPath` that a property
in `package.json` mapped to, if either the _property_ was marked as
processed or the `formatPath` (i.e. the file(s)) was processed in the
same `ngcc` run (since the `compiledFormats` set was not persisted
across runs).
This could lead in a situation where a `formatPath` would be compiled

Previously, when `ngcc` was called with `compileAllFormats === false`
(i.e. how `@angular/cli` calls it), it would not attempt to process
more properties, once the first was successfully processed. However, it
_would_ continue looping over them and perform some unnecessary
operations, such as:
- Determining the format each property maps to (which can be an
expensive operation for some properties mapping to either UMD or
CommonJS).
- Checking whether each property has been processed (which involves
checking whether any property has been processed with a different
version of `ngcc` each time).
- Potentially marking properties as processed (which involves a
file-write operation).
This commit avoids the unnecessary operations by entirely skipping
subsequent properties, once the first one has been successfully
processed. While this theoretically improves performance, it is not
expected to have any noticeable impact in practice, since the list of
`propertiesToConsider` is typically small and the most expensive
operation (marking a property as processed) has low likelihood of
happening (plus these operations are a tiny fraction of `ngcc`'s work).
