This commit fixes a regression where `ngModel` no longer syncs
letter by letter on Android devices, and instead syncs at the
end of every word. This broke when we introduced buffering of
IME events so IMEs like Pinyin keyboards or Katakana keyboards
wouldn't display composition strings. Unfortunately, iOS devices
and Android devices have opposite event behavior. Whereas iOS
devices fire composition events for IME keyboards only, Android
fires composition events for Latin-language keyboards. For
this reason, languages like English don't work as expected on
Android if we always buffer. So to support both platforms,
composition string buffering will only be turned on by default
for non-Android devices.
However, we have also added a `COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE` token
to make this configurable by the application. In some cases, apps
might might still want to receive intermediate values. For example,
some inputs begin searching based on Latin letters before a
character selection is made.
As a provider, this is fairly flexible. If you want to turn
composition buffering off, simply provide the token at the top
level:
```ts
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useValue: false}
]
```
Or, if you want to change the mode based on locale or platform,
you can use a factory:
```ts
import {shouldUseBuffering} from 'my/lib';
....
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useFactory: shouldUseBuffering}
]
```

Observable subscriptions from previous validation runs should be canceled
before a new subscription is created for the next validation run.
Currently the subscription that sets the errors is canceled properly,
but the source observable created by the validator is not. While this
does not affect validation status or error setting, the source
observables will incorrectly continue through the pipeline until they
complete. This change ensures that the whole stream is canceled.
AsyncValidatorFn previously had an "any" return type, but now it more
explicitly requires a Promise or Observable return type. We don't
anticipate this causing problems given that any other return type
would have caused a runtime error already.
This API was introduced only in a beta release, and is being removed because we found it to be incorrect prior to launch. For more information about why this is being removed, see https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/15050.
TypeScript compiler will now build to ES2015 code and modules. Babili is used to minify ES2015
code, providing an initial optimization that we couldn't previously get just from Uglify. Uses
Babel to convert ES2015 to UMD/ES5 code, and Uglify to minimize the output.
- Introduce `InjectionToken<T>` which is a parameterized and type-safe
version of `OpaqueToken`.
DEPRECATION:
- `OpaqueToken` is now deprecated, use `InjectionToken<T>` instead.
- `Injector.get(token: any, notFoundValue?: any): any` is now deprecated
use the same method which is now overloaded as
`Injector.get<T>(token: Type<T>|InjectionToken<T>, notFoundValue?: T): T;`.
Migration
- Replace `OpaqueToken` with `InjectionToken<?>` and parameterize it.
- Migrate your code to only use `Type<?>` or `InjectionToken<?>` as
injection tokens. Using other tokens will not be supported in the
future.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Because `injector.get()` is now parameterize it is possible that code
which used to work no longer type checks. Example would be if one
injects `Foo` but configures it as `{provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}`.
The injection instance will be that of `MockFoo` but the type will be
`Foo` instead of `any` as in the past. This means that it was possible
to call a method on `MockFoo` in the past which now will fail type
check. See this example:
```
class Foo {}
class MockFoo extends Foo {
setupMock();
}
var PROVIDERS = [
{provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}
];
...
function myTest(injector: Injector) {
var foo = injector.get(Foo);
// This line used to work since `foo` used to be `any` before this
// change, it will now be `Foo`, and `Foo` does not have `setUpMock()`.
// The fix is to downcast: `injector.get(Foo) as MockFoo`.
foo.setUpMock();
}
```

* feat(forms): ngSubmit event exposes $event from original submit event as local variable
Modify NgForm directive and FormGroup directive to expose the original submit event as $event in the ngSubmit event. Modify docs to reflect changes.
This resolves#10920.
* refactor: code cleanup
BREAKING CHANGE:
The deprecated `provideForms()` and `disableDeprecatedForms()` functions have been removed. Please import the `FormsModule` or the `ReactiveFormsModule` from @angular/forms instead.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The deprecated forms APIs in @angular/common have been removed. Please update to the new forms API in @angular/forms. See angular.io for more information.
Closes#9729
BREAKING CHANGE:
`Type` is now `Type<T>` which means that in most cases you have to
use `Type<any>` in place of `Type`.
We don't expect that any user applications use the `Type` type.
Because
- `Form` is **exported** -- see line 30/31 of
`modules/@angular/forms/src/forms.ts`: i.e., <br>`export {Form} from
'./directives/form_interface'`; and
- Methods of `Form`, which are public, have an
`AbstractFormGroupDirective` parameter;
e.g.,<br>`Form.getFormGroup(dir: AbstractFormGroupDirective):
FormGroup`.
Then it makes sense for `AbstractFormGroupDirective` to be
public/exported too. In any case, if it isn't exported then the **API
docs for `Form` don't get generated properly.**
Closes#9732
BREAKING CHANGE:
We have removed the deprecated form directives from the built-in platform directive list, so apps are not required to package forms with their app. This also makes forms friendly to offline compilation.
Instead, we have exposed three modules:
OLD API:
- `DeprecatedFormsModule`
NEW API:
- `FormsModule`
- `ReactiveFormsModule`
If you provide one of these modules, the default forms directives and providers from that module will be available to you app-wide. Note: You can provide both the `FormsModule` and the `ReactiveFormsModule` together if you like, but they are fully-functional separately.
**Before:**
```ts
import {disableDeprecatedForms, provideForms} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, [
disableDeprecatedForms(),
provideForms()
]);
```
**After:**
```ts
import {DeprecatedFormsModule} from @angular/common;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [DeprecatedFormsModule] });
```
-OR-
```ts
import {FormsModule} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [FormsModule] });
```
-OR-
```ts
import {ReactiveFormsModule} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [ReactiveFormsModule] });
```
You can also choose not to provide any forms module and run your app without forms.
Or you can choose not to provide any forms module *and* provide form directives at will. This will allow you to use the deprecatedForms API for some components and not others.
```
import {FORM_DIRECTIVES, FORM_PROVIDERS} from @angular/forms;
@Component({
selector: some-comp,
directives: [FORM_DIRECTIVES],
providers: [FORM_PROVIDERS]
})
class SomeComp
```
