This commit disables all diagnostic tests for DynamicValue diagnostics which
make assertions about the diagnostic filename while running tests on Windows.
Such assertions are currently suffering from a case sensitivity issue.
PR Close#37763
Several partial_evaluator tests in the diagnostics_spec check assert
correctness of diagnostic filenames. Previously these assertions compared
a resolved (`absoluteFrom`) filename with the TypeScript `ts.SourceFile`'s
`fileName` string, which caused the tests to fail on Windows because the
drive letter case differed.
This commit changes the assertions to use `absoluteFromSourceFile` instead
of the `fileName` string, resulting in an apples-to-apples comparison of
canonicalized paths.

This commit introduces a dedicated `DynamicValue` kind to indicate that a value
cannot be evaluated statically as the function body is not just a single return
statement. This allows more accurate reporting of why a function call failed
to be evaluated, i.e. we now include a reference to the function declaration
and have a tailor-made diagnostic message.
PR Close#37587
During AOT compilation, the value of some expressions need to be known at
compile time. The compiler has the ability to statically evaluate expressions
the best it can, but there can be occurrences when an expression cannot be
evaluated statically. For instance, the evaluation could depend on a dynamic
value or syntax is used that the compiler does not understand. Alternatively,
it is possible that an expression could be statically evaluated but the
resulting value would be of an incorrect type.
In these situations, it would be helpful if the compiler could explain why it
is unable to evaluate an expression. To this extend, the static interpreter
in Ivy keeps track of a trail of `DynamicValue`s which follow the path of nodes
that were considered all the way to the node that causes an expression to be
considered dynamic. Up until this commit, this rich trail of information was
not surfaced to a developer so the compiler was of little help to explain
why static evaluation failed, resulting in situations that are hard to debug
and resolve.
This commit adds much more insight to the diagnostic that is produced for static
evaluation errors. For dynamic values, the trail of `DynamicValue` instances
is presented to the user in a meaningful way. If a value is available but not
of the correct type, the type of the resolved value is shown.

Commit 4213e8d5 introduced shim reference tagging into the compiler, and
changed how the `TypeCheckProgramHost` worked under the hood during the
creation of a template type-checking program. This work enabled a more
incremental flow for template type-checking, but unintentionally introduced
several regressions in performance, caused by poor incrementality during
`ts.Program` creation.
1. The `TypeCheckProgramHost` was made to rely on the `ts.CompilerHost` to
retrieve instances of `ts.SourceFile`s from the original program. If the
host does not return the original instance of such files, but instead
creates new instances, this has two negative effects: it incurs
additional parsing time, and it interferes with TypeScript's ability to
reuse information about such files.
2. During the incremental creation of a `ts.Program`, TypeScript compares
the `referencedFiles` of `ts.SourceFile` instances from the old program
with those in the new program. If these arrays differ, TypeScript cannot
fully reuse the old program. The implementation of reference tagging
introduced in 4213e8d5 restores the original `referencedFiles` array
after a `ts.Program` is created, which means that future incremental
operations involving that program will always fail this comparison,
effectively limiting the incrementality TypeScript can achieve.
Problem 1 exacerbates problem 2: if a new `ts.SourceFile` is created by the
host after shim generation has been disabled, it will have an untagged
`referencedFiles` array even if the original file's `referencedFiles` was
not restored, triggering problem 2 when creating the template type-checking
program.
To fix these issues, `referencedFiles` arrays are now restored on the old
`ts.Program` prior to the creation of a new incremental program. This allows
TypeScript to get the most out of reusing the old program's data.
Additionally, the `TypeCheckProgramHost` now uses the original `ts.Program`
to retrieve original instances of `ts.SourceFile`s where possible,
preventing issues when a host would otherwise return fresh instances.
Together, these fixes ensure that program reuse is as incremental as
possible, and tests have been added to verify this for certain scenarios.
An optimization was further added to prevent the creation of a type-checking
`ts.Program` in the first place if no type-checking is necessary.

Previously the `ProgramBasedEntryPointFinder` was parsing all the
entry-points referenced by the program for dependencies even if all the
entry-points had been processed already.
Now this entry-point finder will re-use the `EntryPointManifest` to load
the entry-point dependencies when possible which avoids having to parse
them all again, on every invocation of ngcc.
Previously the `EntryPointManifest` was only used in the
`DirectoryWalkerEntryPointFinder`, which also contained the logic for
computing the contents of the manifest. This logic has been factored out
into an `EntryPointCollector` class. Both the `ProgramBasedEntryPointFinder`
and `DirectoryWalkerEntryPointFinder` now use the `EntryPointManifest` and
the `EntryPointCollector`.
The result of this change is that there is a small cost on the first run of
ngcc to compute and store the manifest - the processing takes 102% of the
processing time before this PR. But on subsequent runs there is a
significant benefit on subsequent runs - the processing takes around 50%
of the processing time before this PR.

We recently added a transformer to NGC that is responsible for downleveling Angular
decorators and constructor parameter types. The primary goal was to mitigate a
TypeScript limitation/issue that surfaces in Angular projects due to the heavy
reliance on type metadata being captured for DI. Additionally this is a pre-requisite
of making `tsickle` optional in the Angular bazel toolchain.
See: 401ef71ae5 for more context on this.
Another (less important) goal was to make sure that the CLI can re-use
this transformer for its JIT mode compilation. The CLI (as outlined in
the commit mentioned above), already has a transformer for downleveling
constructor parameters. We want to avoid this duplication and exported
the transform through the tooling-private compiler entry-point.
Early experiments in using this transformer over the current one, highlighted
that in JIT, class decorators cannot be downleveled. Angular relies on those
to be invoked immediately for JIT (so that factories etc. are generated upon loading)
The transformer we exposed, always downlevels such class decorators
though, so that would break CLI's JIT mode. We can address the CLI's
needs by adding another flag to skip class decorators. This will allow
us to continue with the goal of de-duplication.

Commit 24b2f1da2b introduced an `NgCompiler` which operates on a
`ts.Program` independently of the `NgtscProgram`. The NgCompiler got its
`IncrementalDriver` (for incremental reuse of Angular compilation results)
by looking at a monkey-patched property on the `ts.Program`.
This monkey-patching operation causes problems with the Angular indexer
(specifically, it seems to cause the indexer to retain too much of prior
programs, resulting in OOM issues). To work around this, `IncrementalDriver`
reuse is now handled by a dedicated `IncrementalBuildStrategy`. One
implementation of this interface is used by the `NgtscProgram` to perform
the old-style reuse, relying on the previous instance of `NgtscProgram`
instead of monkey-patching. Only for `NgTscPlugin` is the monkey-patching
strategy used, as the plugin sits behind an interface which only provides
access to the `ts.Program`, not a prior instance of the plugin.

Previously, ngcc would only be able to match an ngcc configuration to
packages that were located inside the project's top-level
`node_modules/`. However, if there are multiple versions of a package in
a project (e.g. as a transitive dependency of other packages), multiple
copies of a package (at different versions) may exist in nested
`node_modules/` directories. For example, one at
`<project-root>/node_modules/some-package/` and one at
`<project-root>/node_modules/other-package/node_modules/some-package/`.
In such cases, ngcc was only able to detect the config for the first
copy but not for the second.
This commit fixes this by returning a new instance of
`ProcessedNgccPackageConfig` for each different package path (even if
they refer to the same package name). In these
`ProcessedNgccPackageConfig`, the `entryPoints` paths have been
processed to take the package path into account.

PR Close#37040
In order to retrieve the ngcc configuration (if any) for an entry-point,
ngcc has to detect the containing package's version.
Previously, ngcc would try to read the version from the entry-point's
`package.json` file, which was different than the package's top-level
`package.json` for secondary entry-points. For example, it would try to
read it from `node_modules/@angular/common/http/package.json` for
entry-point `@angular/common/http`. However, the `package.json` files
for secondary entry-points are not guaranteed to include a `version`
property.
This commit fixes this by first trying to read the version from the
_package's_ `package.json` (falling back to the entry-point's
`package.json`). For example, it will first try to read it from
`@angular/common/package.json` for entry-point `@angular/common/http`.

`packageName` property that will be added in a subsequent commit.
This commit also re-orders the `EntryPoint` properties to group related

Previously, when an entry-point was ignored via an ngcc config, ngcc
would scan sub-directories for sub-entry-points, but would not use the
correct `packagePath`. For example, if `@angular/common` was ignored, it
would look at `@angular/common/http` but incorrectly use
`.../@angular/common/http` as the `packagePath` (instead of
`.../@angular/common`). As a result, it would not retrieve the correct
ngcc config for the actual package.
This commit fixes it by ensuring the correct `packagePath` is used, even
if the primary entry-point corresponding to that path is ignored. In
order to do this, a new return value for `getEntryPointInfo()` is added:
`IGNORED_ENTRY_POINT`. This is used to differentiate between directories
that correspond to no or an incompatible entry-point and those that
correspond to an entry-point that could otherwise be valid but is
explicitly ignored. Consumers of `getEntryPointInfo()` can then use this
info to discard ignored entry-points, but still use the correct
`packagePath` when scanning their sub-directories for secondary
entry-points.

Currently Angular internally already handles `InjectionToken` as
predicates for queries. This commit exposes this as public API as
developers already relied on this functionality but currently use
workarounds to satisfy the type constraints (e.g. `as any`).
We intend to make this public as it's low-effort to support, and
it's a significant key part for the use of light-weight tokens as
described in the upcoming guide: https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36144.
In concrete, applications might use injection tokens over classes
for both optional DI and queries, because otherwise such references
cause classes to be always retained. This was also an issue in View
Engine, but now with Ivy, this pattern became worse, as factories are
directly attached to retained classes (ultimately ending up in the
production bundle, while being unused).

It is quite common for the TS compiler to have to add synthetic
types to function signatures, where the developer has not
explicitly provided them. This results in `import(...)` expressions
appearing in typings files. For example in `@ngrx/data` there is a
class with a getter that has an implicit type:
```ts
export declare class EntityCollectionServiceBase<...> {
...
get store() {
return this.dispatcher.store;
}
...
}
```
In the d.ts file for this we get:
```ts
get store(): Store<import("@ngrx/data").EntityCache>;
```
Given that this file is within the `@ngrx/data` package already,
this caused ngcc to believe that there was a circular dependency,
causing it to fail to process the package - and in fact crash!
This commit resolves this problem by ignoring `import()` expressions
when scanning typings programs for dependencies. This ability was
only introduced very recently in a 10.0.0 RC release, and so it has
limited benefit given that up till now ngcc has been able to process
libraries effectively without it. Moreover, in the rare case that a
package does have such a dependency, it should get picked up
by the sync ngcc+CLI integration point.
PR Close#37503
In v7 of Angular we removed `tsickle` from the default `ngc` pipeline.
This had the negative potential of breaking ES2015 output and SSR due
to a limitation in TypeScript.
TypeScript by default preserves type information for decorated constructor
parameters when `emitDecoratorMetadata` is enabled. For example,
consider this snippet below:
```
@Directive()
export class MyDirective {
constructor(button: MyButton) {}
}
export class MyButton {}
```
TypeScript would generate metadata for the `MyDirective` class it has
a decorator applied. This metadata would be needed in JIT mode, or
for libraries that provide `MyDirective` through NPM. The metadata would
look as followed:
```
let MyDirective = class MyDir {}
MyDirective = __decorate([
Directive(),
__metadata("design:paramtypes", [MyButton]),
], MyDirective);
let MyButton = class MyButton {}
```
Notice that TypeScript generated calls to `__decorate` and
`__metadata`. These calls are needed so that the Angular compiler
is able to determine whether `MyDirective` is actually an directive,
and what types are needed for dependency injection.
The limitation surfaces in this concrete example because `MyButton`
is declared after the `__metadata(..)` call, while `__metadata`
actually directly references `MyButton`. This is illegal though because
`MyButton` has not been declared at this point. This is due to the
so-called temporal dead zone in JavaScript. Errors like followed will
be reported at runtime when such file/code evaluates:
```
Uncaught ReferenceError: Cannot access 'MyButton' before initialization
```
As noted, this is a TypeScript limitation because ideally TypeScript
shouldn't evaluate `__metadata`/reference `MyButton` immediately.
Instead, it should defer the reference until `MyButton` is actually
declared. This limitation will not be fixed by the TypeScript team
though because it's a limitation as per current design and they will
only revisit this once the tc39 decorator proposal is finalized
(currently stage-2 at time of writing).
Given this wontfix on the TypeScript side, and our heavy reliance on
this metadata in libraries (and for JIT mode), we intend to fix this
from within the Angular compiler by downleveling decorators to static
properties that don't need to evaluate directly. For example:
```
MyDirective.ctorParameters = () => [MyButton];
```
With this snippet above, `MyButton` is not referenced directly. Only
lazily when the Angular runtime needs it. This mitigates the temporal
dead zone issue caused by a limitation in TypeScript's decorator
metadata output. See: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/27519.
In the past (as noted; before version 7), the Angular compiler by
default used tsickle that already performed this transformation. We
moved the transformation to the CLI for JIT and `ng-packager`, but now
we realize that we can move this all to a single place in the compiler
so that standalone ngc consumers can benefit too, and that we can
disable tsickle in our Bazel `ngc-wrapped` pipeline (that currently
still relies on tsickle to perform this decorator processing).
This transformation also has another positive side-effect of making
Angular application/library code more compatible with server-side
rendering. In principle, TypeScript would also preserve type information
for decorated class members (similar to how it did that for constructor
parameters) at runtime. This becomes an issue when your application
relies on native DOM globals for decorated class member types. e.g.
```
@Input() panelElement: HTMLElement;
```
Your application code would then reference `HTMLElement` directly
whenever the source file is loaded in NodeJS for SSR. `HTMLElement`
does not exist on the server though, so that will become an invalid
reference. One could work around this by providing global mocks for
these DOM symbols, but that doesn't match up with other places where
dependency injection is used for mocking DOM/browser specific symbols.
More context in this issue: #30586. The TL;DR here is that the Angular
compiler does not care about types for these class members, so it won't
ever reference `HTMLElement` at runtime.

`NgCompiler` is the heart of ngtsc and can be used to analyze and compile
Angular programs in a variety of environments. Most of these integrations
rely on `NgProgram` and the creation of an `NgCompilerHost` in order to
create a `ts.Program` with the right shape for `NgCompiler`.
However, certain environments (such as the Angular Language Service) have
their own mechanisms for creating `ts.Program`s that don't make use of a

When the compiler encounters a function call within an NgModule imports
section, it attempts to resolve it to an NgModule-annotated class by
looking at the function body and evaluating the statements there. This
evaluation can only understand simple functions which have a single
return statement as their body. If the function the user writes is more
complex than that, the compiler won't be able to understand it and

As a temporary workaround you might consider using your current build
pipeline with Closure flag
`--compilation_level=SIMPLE`. This flag will ensure that your build
pipeline produces buildable and
runnable artifacts, at the cost of increased payload size due to
advanced optimizations being disabled.
