In Angular today, the following pattern works:
```typescript
export class BaseDir {
constructor(@Inject(ViewContainerRef) protected vcr: ViewContainerRef) {}
}
@Directive({
selector: '[child]',
})
export class ChildDir extends BaseDir {
// constructor inherited from BaseDir
}
```
A decorated child class can inherit a constructor from an undecorated base
class, so long as the base class has metadata of its own (for JIT mode).
This pattern works regardless of metadata in AOT.
In Angular Ivy, this pattern does not work: without the @Directive
annotation identifying the base class as a directive, information about its
constructor parameters will not be captured by the Ivy compiler. This is a
result of Ivy's locality principle, which is the basis behind a number of
compilation optimizations.
As a solution, @Directive() without a selector will be interpreted as a
"directive base class" annotation. Such a directive cannot be declared in an
NgModule, but can be inherited from. To implement this, a few changes are
made to the ngc compiler:
* the error for a selector-less directive is now generated when an NgModule
declaring it is processed, not when the directive itself is processed.
* selector-less directives are not tracked along with other directives in
the compiler, preventing other errors (like their absence in an NgModule)
from being generated from them.

Similar to interpolation, we do not want to completely remove whitespace
nodes that are siblings of an expansion.
For example, the following template
```html
<div>
<strong>items left<strong> {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}
</div>
```
was being collapsed to
```html
<div><strong>items left<strong>{count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>
```
which results in the text looking like
```
items left4
```
instead it should be collapsed to
```html
<div><strong>items left<strong> {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>

which results in the text looking like

Fixes Ivy matching directives against attribute bindings (e.g. `[attr.some-directive]="foo"`). Works by excluding attribute bindings from the attributes array during compilation. This has the added benefit of generating less code.
**Note:** My initial approach to implementing this was to have a different marker for attribute bindings so that they can be ignored when matching directives, however as I was implementing it I realized that the attributes in that array were only used for directive matching (as far as I could tell). I decided to drop the attribute bindings completely, because it results in less generated code.

Currently we reuse the same instruction both for regular property bindings and property bindings on the `host`. The only difference between the two is that when it's on the host we shouldn't support inputs. We have an optional parameter called `nativeOnly` which is used to differentiate the two, however since `nativeOnly` is preceeded by another optional parameter (`sanitizer`), we have to generate two extra parameters for each host property bindings every time (e.g. `property('someProp', 'someValue', null, true)`).
These changes add a new instruction called `hostProperty` which avoids the need for the two parameters by removing `nativeOnly` which is always set and it allows us to omit `sanitizer` when it isn't being used.
These changes also remove the `nativeOnly` parameter from the `updateSyntheticHostBinding` instruction, because it's only generated for host elements which means that we can assume that its value will always be `true`.

To provide some context: The implicit receiver is part of the
parsed Angular template AST. Any property reads in bindings,
interpolations etc. read from a given object (usually the component
instance). In that case there is an _implicit_ receiver which can also
be specified explicitly by just using `this`.
e.g.
```html
<ng-template>{{this.myProperty}}</ng-template>
```
This works as expected in Ivy and View Engine, but breaks in case the
implicit receiver is not used for property reads. For example:
```html
<my-dir [myFn]="greetFn.bind(this)"></my-dir>
```
In that case the `this` will not be properly translated into the generated
template function code because the Ivy compiler currently always treats
the `ctx` variable as the implicit receiver. This is **not correct** and breaks
compatibility with View Engine. Rather we need to ensure that we retrieve
the root context for the standalone implicit receiver similar to how it works
for property reads (as seen in the example above with `this.myProperty`)
Note that this requires some small changes to the `expression_converter`
because we only want to generate the `eenextContent()` instruction if the
implicit receiver is _actually_ used/needed. View Engine determines if that is the case by recursively walking through the converted output AST and
checking for usages of the `o.variable('_co')` variable ([see here][ve_check]). This would work too for Ivy, but involves most likely more code duplication
since templates are isolated in different functions and it another pass
through the output AST for every template expression.

Added a new syntax for projections (`¤` will represent `ng-content` nodes) so that we can treat them specifically.
When we enter an i18n block with the instruction `i18nStart`, a new `delayProjection` variable is set to true to prevent the instruction `projection` from projecting the nodes. Once we reach the `i18nEnd` instruction and encounter a projection in the translation we will project its nodes.
If a projection was removed from a translation, then its nodes won't be projected at all.
The variable `delayProjection` is restored to `false` at the end of `i18nEnd` so that it doesn't stop projections outside of i18n blocks.

With View engine it was possible to declare multiple projection
definitions and to programmatically project nodes into the slots.
e.g.
```html
<ng-content></ng-content>
<ng-content></ng-content>
```
Using `ViewContainerRef#createComponent` allowed projecting
nodes into one of the projection defs (through index)
This no longer works with Ivy as the `projectionDef` instruction only
retrieves a list of selectors instead of also retrieving entries for
reserved projection slots which appear when using the default
selector multiple times (as seen above).
In order to fix this issue, the Ivy compiler now passes all
projection slots to the `projectionDef` instruction. Meaning that
there can be multiple projection slots with the same wildcard
selector. This allows multi-slot projection as seen in the
example above, and it also allows us to match the multi-slot node
projection order from View Engine (to avoid breaking changes).
It basically ensures that Ivy fully matches the View Engine behavior
except of a very small edge case that has already been discussed
in FW-886 (with the conclusion of working as intended).

The R3TargetBinder "binds" an Angular template AST, computing semantic

template:

which desugars to:
<ng-template ngIf [ngIf]="foo" let-foo="ngIf">

contains the `<ng-template>` and the scope inside the template. The bug
arises because during the latter, `foo` is a variable defined by `let-foo`,
and so the R3TargetBinder would incorrectly learn that `foo` inside `[ngIf]`
maps to that variable.

templateAttrs from `Template`s in the outer scope.

Previously, Template.templateAttrs was introduced to capture attribute
bindings which originated from microsyntax (e.g. bindings in *ngFor="...").
This means that a Template node can have two different structures, depending
on whether it originated from microsyntax or from a literal <ng-template>.
In the literal case, the node behaves much like an Element node, it has
attributes, inputs, and outputs which determine which directives apply.
In the microsyntax case, though, only the templateAttrs should be used
to determine which directives apply.
Previously, both the t2_binder and the TemplateDefinitionBuilder were using
the wrong set of attributes to match directives - combining the attributes,
inputs, outputs, and templateAttrs of the Template node regardless of its
origin. In the TDB's case this wasn't a problem, since the TDB collects a
global Set of directives used in the template, so it didn't matter whether
the directive was also recognized on the <ng-template>. t2_binder's API
distinguishes between directives on specific nodes, though, so it's more
sensitive to mismatching.
In particular, this showed up as an assertion failure in template type-
checking in certain cases, when a directive was accidentally matched on
a microsyntax template element and also had a binding which referenced a
variable declared in the microsyntax. This resulted in the type-checker
attempting to generate a reference to a variable that didn't exist in that
scope.
The fix is to distinguish between the two cases and select the appropriate
set of attributes to match on accordingly.
Testing strategy: tested in the t2_binder tests.

template is processed and a list of TCB operations (`TcbOp`s) are created.
Non-linearity is modeled via dependencies between operations, with the
appropriate protection in place for circular dependencies.
Testing strategy: TCB tests included.

This commit adds registration of AOT compiled NgModules that have 'id'
properties set in their metadata. Such modules have a call to
registerNgModuleType() emitted as part of compilation.
The JIT behavior of this code is already in place.
This is required for module loading systems (such as g3) which rely on
getModuleFactory().

The `@angular/compiler` package currently contains the logic for determining whether
given queries are used statically or dynamically. This logic would be necessary in order
to build a schematic that leverages the Angular compiler API's in order to simulate the
query timing based on what ViewEngine computed at compilation-time/runtime.
Exporting the logic that is necessary to detect the timing should not affect the public
API as the `@angular/compiler` package is denoted as private in `PUBLIC_API.md`

Prior to this change, element attributes annotated with i18n- prefix were removed from element attribute list and processed separately by i18n-specific logic. This behavior is causing issues with directive matching, since attributes are not present in the list of attrs for matching purposes. This commit updates i18n logic to retain attributes in the main attribute list, thus allowing directive matching logic to work correctly.

So far using runtime i18n with ivy meant that you needed to use Closure and `goog.getMsg` (or a polyfill). This PR changes the compiler to output both closure & non-closure code, while the unused option will be tree-shaken by minifiers.
This means that if you use the Angular CLI with ivy and load a translations file, you can use i18n and the application will not throw at runtime.
For now it will not translate your application, but at least you can try ivy without having to remove all of your i18n code and configuration.

Currently in Ivy we pass both the raw and parsed selectors to the projectionDef instruction, because the parsed selectors are used to match most nodes, whereas the raw ones are used to match against nodes with the ngProjectAs attribute. The raw selectors add a fair bit of code that won't be used in most cases, because ngProjectAs is somewhat rare.
These changes rework the compiler not to output the raw selectors in the projectionDef, but to parse the selector in ngProjectAs and to store it on the TAttributes. The logic for matching has also been changed so that it matches the pre-parsed ngProjectAs selector against the list of projection selectors.

Prior to this change, a module's imports and exports would be used verbatim
as an injectors' imports. This is detrimental for tree-shaking, as a
module's exports could reference declarations that would then prevent such
declarations from being eligible for tree-shaking.
Since an injector actually only needs NgModule references as its imports,
we may safely filter out any declarations from the list of module exports.
This makes them eligible for tree-shaking once again.

Prior to this change, all module metadata would be included in the
`defineNgModule` call that is set as the `ngModuleDef` field of module
types. Part of the metadata is scope information like declarations,
imports and exports that is used for computing the transitive module
scope in JIT environments, preventing those references from being
tree-shaken for production builds.
This change moves the metadata for scope computations to a pure function
call that patches the scope references onto the module type. Because the
function is marked pure, it may be tree-shaken out during production builds
such that references to declarations and exports are dropped, which in turn
allows for tree-shaken any declaration that is not otherwise referenced.

In some cases ivy expects projectable nodes to be passed in a different order

BREAKING CHANGE:
Certain elements (like `<tr>` or `<col>`) require parent elements to be of a certain type by the HTML specification
(ex. <tr> can only be inside <tbody> / <thead>). Before this change Angular template parser was auto-correcting
"invalid" HTML using the following rules:
- `<tr>` would be wrapped in `<tbody>` if not inside `<tbody>`, `<tfoot>` or `<thead>`;
- `<col>` would be wrapped in `<colgroup>` if not inside `<colgroup>`.
This meachanism of automatic wrapping / auto-correcting was problematic for several reasons:
- it is non-obvious and arbitrary (ex. there are more HTML elements that has rules for parent type);
- it is incorrect for cases where `<tr>` / `<col>` are at the root of a component's content, ex.:
```html
<projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
<tr>...</tr>
</projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
```
In the above example the `<projecting-tr-inside-tbody>` component culd be "surprised" to see additional
`<tbody>` elements inserted by Angular HTML parser.

Previously, ngtsc would resolve forward references while evaluating the
bootstrap, declaration, imports, and exports fields of NgModule types.
However, when generating the resulting ngModuleDef, the forward nature of
these references was not taken into consideration, and so the generated JS
code would incorrectly reference types not yet declared.
This commit fixes this issue by introducing function closures in the
NgModuleDef type, similarly to how NgComponentDef uses them for forward
declarations of its directives and pipes arrays. ngtsc will then generate
closures when required, and the runtime will unwrap them if present.

Currently with ViewEngine, if someone runs the platform's
`bootstrapModule` method in order to boostrap a module in
JIT mode, external component resources are properly resolved
*automatically*.
Currently with Ivy, the developer would need to manually call
`resolveComponentResources` in order to asynchronously fetch
the determined external component resources. In order to make
this backwards compatible with ViewEngine, and also since
platforms can already specify a `ResourceLoader` compiler
provider, we need to automatically resolve all external
component resources on module bootstrap.
--
Since the `ResourceLoader` is part of the `@angular/compiler`,
because ViewEngine performed the factory creation in the compiler,
we can't access the `ResourceLoader` token from within core.
In order to workaround this without introducing a breaking change,
we just proxy the `ResourceLoader` token to `core` through the
compiler facade. In the future, we should be able to move the
`ResourceLoader` to core when ViewEngine code no longer exists in
the `@angular/compiler`.

For the template type checking to work correctly, it needs to know
what attributes are bound to expressions or directives, which may
require expressions in the template to be evaluated in a different
scope.
In inline templates, there are attributes that are now marked as
"Template" attributes. We need to ensure that the template
type checking code looks at these "bound" attributes as well as the
"input" attributes.

The content projection mechanism is static, in that it only looks at the static
template nodes before directives are matched and change detection is run.
When you have a selector-based content projection the selection is based
on nodes that are available in the template.
For example:
```
<ng-content selector="[some-attr]"></ng-content>
```
would match
```
<div some-attr="..."></div>
```
If you have an inline-template in your projected nodes. For example:
```
<div *ngIf="..." some-attr="..."></div>
```
This gets pre-parsed and converted to a canonical form.
For example:
```
<ng-template [ngIf]="...">
<div some-attr=".."></div>
</ng-template>
```
Note that only structural attributes (e.g. `*ngIf`) stay with the `<ng-template>`
node. The other attributes move to the contained element inside the template.
When this happens in ivy, the ng-template content is removed
from the component template function and is compiled into its own
template function. But this means that the information about the
attributes that were on the content are lost and the projection
selection mechanism is unable to match the original
`<div *ngIf="..." some-attr>`.
This commit adds support for this in ivy. Attributes are separated into three
groups (Bindings, Templates and "other"). For inline-templates the Bindings
and "other" types are hoisted back from the contained node to the `template()`
instruction, so that they can be used in content projection matching.

ngtsc occasionally converts a type reference (such as the type of a
parameter in a constructor) to a value reference (argument to a
directiveInject call). TypeScript has a bad habit of sometimes removing
the import statement associated with this type reference, because it's a
type only import when it initially looks at the file.
A solution to this is to always add an import to refer to a type position
value that's imported, and not rely on the existing import.

ngtsc has cyclic import detection, to determine when adding an import to a
directive or pipe would create a cycle. However, this detection must also
account for already inserted imports, as it's possible for both directions
of a circular import to be inserted by Ivy (as opposed to at least one of
those edges existing in the user's program).
This commit fixes the circular import detection for components to take into
consideration already added edges. This is difficult for one critical
reason: only edges to files which will *actually* be imported should be
considered. However, that depends on which directives & pipes are used in
a given template, which is currently only known by running the
TemplateDefinitionBuilder during the 'compile' phase. This is too late; the
decision whether to use remote scoping (which consults the import graph) is
made during the 'resolve' phase, before any compilation has taken place.
Thus, the only way to correctly consider synthetic edges is for the compiler
to know exactly which directives & pipes are used in a template during
'resolve'. There are two ways to achieve this:
1) refactor `TemplateDefinitionBuilder` to do its work in two phases, with
directive matching occurring as a separate step which can be performed
earlier.
2) use the `R3TargetBinder` in the 'resolve' phase to independently bind the
template and get information about used directives.
Option 1 is ideal, but option 2 is currently used for practical reasons. The
cost of binding the template can be shared with template-typechecking.
PR Close#29040
In the @Component decorator, the 'host' field is an object which represents
host bindings. The type of this field is complex, but is generally of the
form {[key: string]: string}. Several different kinds of bindings can be
specified, depending on the structure of the key.
For example:
```
@Component({
host: {'[prop]': 'someExpr'}
})
```
will bind an expression 'someExpr' to the property 'prop'. This is known to
be a property binding because of the square brackets in the binding key.
If the binding key is a plain string (no brackets or parentheses), then it
is known as an attribute binding. In this case, the right-hand side is not
interpreted as an expression, but is instead a constant string.
There is no actual requirement that at build time, these constant strings
are known to the compiler, but this was previously enforced as a side effect
of requiring the binding expressions for property and event bindings to be
statically known (as they need to be parsed). This commit breaks that
relationship and allows the attribute bindings to be dynamic. In the case
that they are dynamic, the references to the dynamic values are reflected
into the Ivy instructions for attribute bindings.

This change helps highlight certain misoptimizations with Closure
compiler. It is also stylistically preferable to consistently use index
access on index sig types.
Roughly, when one sees '.foo' they know it is always checked for typos
in the prop name by the type system (unless 'any'), while "['foo']" is
always not.
Once all angular repos are conforming this will become a tsetse.info
check, enforced by bazel.

Previously the start of a character indicated by an escape sequence
was being incorrectly computed by the lexer, which caused tokens
to include the start of the escaped character sequence in the
preceding token. In particular this affected the name extracted
from opening tags if the name was terminated by an escape sequence.
For example, `<t\n>` would have the name `t\` rather than `t`.
This fix refactors the lexer to use a "cursor" object to iterate over
the characters in the template source. There are two cursor implementations,
one expects a simple string, the other expects a string that contains
JavaScript escape sequences that need to be unescaped.

Prior to this change i18n block bindings were converted to Expressions right away (once we first access them), when in non-i18n cases we processed them differently: the actual conversion happens at instructions generation.

During build time we remap particular property bindings, because their names don't match their attribute equivalents (e.g. the property for the `for` attribute is called `htmlFor`).
