In #36892 the `ModuleWithProviders` type parameter becomes required.
This exposes a bug in ngcc, where it can only handle functions that have a
specific form:
```
function forRoot() {
return { ... };
}
```
In other words, it only accepts functions that return an object literal.
In some libraries, the function instead returns a call to another function.
For example in `angular-in-memory-web-api`:
```
InMemoryWebApiModule.forFeature = function (dbCreator, options) {
return InMemoryWebApiModule_1.forRoot(dbCreator, options);
};
```
This commit changes the parsing of such functions to use the
`PartialEvaluator`, which can evaluate these more complex function
bodies.

Previously this method was implemented on the `NgccReflectionHost`,
but really it is asking too much of the host, since it actually needs to do
some static evaluation of the code to be able to support a wider range
of function shapes. Also there was only one implementation of the method
in the `Esm2015ReflectionHost` since it has no format specific code in
in.
This commit moves the whole function (and supporting helpers) into the
`ModuleWithProvidersAnalyzer`, which is the only place it was being used.
This class will be able to do further static evaluation of the function bodies
in order to support more function shapes than the host can do on its own.
The commit removes a whole set of reflection host tests but these are

This optimization builds on a lot of prior work to finally make type-
checking of templates incremental.
Incrementality requires two main components:
- the ability to reuse work from a prior compilation.
- the ability to know when changes in the current program invalidate that
prior work.
Prior to this commit, on every type-checking pass the compiler would
generate new .ngtypecheck files for each original input file in the program.
1. (Build #1 main program): empty .ngtypecheck files generated for each
original input file.
2. (Build #1 type-check program): .ngtypecheck contents overridden for those
which have corresponding components that need type-checked.
3. (Build #2 main program): throw away old .ngtypecheck files and generate
new empty ones.
4. (Build #2 type-check program): same as step 2.
With this commit, the `IncrementalDriver` now tracks template type-checking
_metadata_ for each input file. The metadata contains information about
source mappings for generated type-checking code, as well as some
diagnostics which were discovered at type-check analysis time. The actual
type-checking code is stored in the TypeScript AST for type-checking files,
which is now re-used between programs as follows:
1. (Build #1 main program): empty .ngtypecheck files generated for each
original input file.
2. (Build #1 type-check program): .ngtypecheck contents overridden for those
which have corresponding components that need type-checked, and the
metadata registered in the `IncrementalDriver`.
3. (Build #2 main program): The `TypeCheckShimGenerator` now reuses _all_
.ngtypecheck `ts.SourceFile` shims from build #1's type-check program in
the construction of build #2's main program. Some of the contents of
these files might be stale (if a component's template changed, for
example), but wholesale reuse here prevents unnecessary changes in the
contents of the program at this point and makes TypeScript's job a lot
easier.
4. (Build #2 type-check program): For those input files which have not
"logically changed" (meaning components within are semantically the same
as they were before), the compiler will re-use the type-check file
metadata from build #1, and _not_ generate a new .ngtypecheck shim.
For components which have logically changed or where the previous
.ngtypecheck contents cannot otherwise be reused, code generation happens
as before.
PR Close#36211
As a performance optimization, this commit splits the single
__ngtypecheck__.ts file which was previously added to the user's program as
a container for all template type-checking code into multiple .ngtypecheck
shim files, one for each original file in the user's program.
In larger applications, the generation, parsing, and checking of this single
type-checking file was a huge performance bottleneck, with the file often
exceeding 1 MB in text content. Particularly in incremental builds,
regenerating this single file for the entire application proved especially
expensive.
This commit introduces a new strategy for template type-checking code which
makes use of a new interface, the `TypeCheckingProgramStrategy`. This
interface abstracts the process of creating a new `ts.Program` to type-check
a particular compilation, and allows the mechanism there to be kept separate
from the more complex logic around dealing with multiple .ngtypecheck files.
A new `TemplateTypeChecker` hosts that logic and interacts with the
`TypeCheckingProgramStrategy` to actually generate and return diagnostics.
The `TypeCheckContext` class, previously the workhorse of template type-
checking, is now solely focused on collecting and generating type-checking
file contents.
A side effect of implementing the new `TypeCheckingProgramStrategy` in this
way is that the API is designed to be suitable for use by the Angular
Language Service as well. The LS also needs to type-check components, but
has its own method for constructing a `ts.Program` with type-checking code.
Note that this commit does not make the actual checking of templates at all
_incremental_ just yet. That will happen in a future commit.
PR Close#36211
Shim generation was built on a lie.
Shims are files added to the program which aren't original files authored by
the user, but files authored effectively by the compiler. These fall into
two categories: files which will be generated (like the .ngfactory shims we
generate for View Engine compatibility) as well as files used internally in
compilation (like the __ng_typecheck__.ts file).
Previously, shim generation was driven by the `rootFiles` passed to the
compiler as input. These are effectively the `files` listed in the
`tsconfig.json`. Each shim generator (e.g. the `FactoryGenerator`) would
examine the `rootFiles` and produce a list of shim file names which it would
be responsible for generating. These names would then be added to the
`rootFiles` when the program was created.
The fatal flaw here is that `rootFiles` does not always account for all of
the files in the program. In fact, it's quite rare that it does. Users don't
typically specify every file directly in `files`. Instead, they rely on
TypeScript, during program creation, starting with a few root files and
transitively discovering all of the files in the program.
This happens, however, during `ts.createProgram`, which is too late to add
new files to the `rootFiles` list.
As a result, shim generation was only including shims for files actually
listed in the `tsconfig.json` file, and not for the transitive set of files
in the user's program as it should.
This commit completely rewrites shim generation to use a different technique
for adding files to the program, inspired by View Engine's shim generator.
In this new technique, as the program is being created and `ts.SourceFile`s
are being requested from the `NgCompilerHost`, shims for those files are
generated and a reference to them is patched onto the original file's
`ts.SourceFile.referencedFiles`. This causes TS to think that the original
file references the shim, and causes the shim to be included in the program.
The original `referencedFiles` array is saved and restored after program
creation, hiding this little hack from the rest of the system.
The new shim generation engine differentiates between two kinds of shims:
top-level shims (such as the flat module entrypoint file and
__ng_typecheck__.ts) and per-file shims such as ngfactory or ngsummary
files. The former are included via `rootFiles` as before, the latter are
included via the `referencedFiles` of their corresponding original files.
As a result of this change, shims are now correctly generated for all files
in the program, not just the ones named in `tsconfig.json`.
A few mitigating factors prevented this bug from being realized until now:
* in g3, `files` does include the transitive closure of files in the program
* in CLI apps, shims are not really used
This change also makes use of a novel technique for associating information
with source files: the use of an `NgExtension` `Symbol` to patch the
information directly onto the AST object. This is used in several
circumstances:
* For shims, metadata about a `ts.SourceFile`'s status as a shim and its
origins are held in the extension data.
* For original files, the original `referencedFiles` are stashed in the
extension data for later restoration.
The main benefit of this technique is a lot less bookkeeping around `Map`s
of `ts.SourceFile`s to various kinds of data, which need to be tracked/
invalidated as part of incremental builds.
This technique is based on designs used internally in the TypeScript
compiler and is serving as a prototype of this design in ngtsc. If it works
well, it could have benefits across the rest of the compiler.
PR Close#36211
The compiler needs to track the dependencies of a component, including any
NgModules which happen to be present in a component's scope. If an upstream
NgModule changes, any downstream components need to have their templates
re-compiled and re-typechecked.
Previously, the compiler handled this well for the A -> B -> C case where
module A imports module B which re-exports module C. However, it fell apart
in the A -> B -> C -> D case, because previously tracking focused on changes
to components/directives in the scope, and not NgModules specifically.
This commit introduces logic to track which NgModules contributed to a given
scope, and treat them as dependencies of any components within.
This logic also contains a bug, which is intentional for now. It
purposefully does not track transitive dependencies of the NgModules which
contribute to a scope. If it did, using the current dependency system, this
would treat all components and directives (even those not exported into the
scope) as dependencies, causing a major performance bottleneck. Only those
dependencies which contributed to the module's export scope should be
considered, but the current system is incapable of making this distinction.
This will be fixed at a later date.

When running in parallel mode, worker processes forward errors thrown
during task processing to the master process, which in turn exits with
an error.
However, there are cases where the error is not directly related to
processing the entry-point. One such case is when there is not enough
memory (for example, due to all the other tasks being processed
simultaneously).
Previously, an `ENOMEM` error thrown on a worker process would propagate
to the master process, eventually causing ngcc to exit with an error.
Example failure: https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/682198
This commit improves handling of these low-memory situations by
detecting `ENOMEM` errors and killing the worker process, thus allowing
the master process to decide how to handle that. The master process will
put the task back into the tasks queue and continue processing tasks
with the rest of the worker processes (and thus with lower memory
pressure).

Previously, when the last worker process crashed, the master process
would try to re-spawn it indefinitely. This could lead to an infinite

PR Close#36626
Previously, when running in parallel mode and a worker process crashed
while processing a task, it was not possible for ngcc to continue
without risking ending up with a corrupted entry-point and therefore it
exited with an error. This, for example, could happen when a worker
process received a `SIGKILL` signal, which was frequently observed in CI
environments. This was probably the result of Docker killing processes
due to increased memory pressure.
One factor that amplifies the problem under Docker (which is often used
in CI) is that it is not possible to distinguish between the available
CPU cores on the host machine and the ones made available to Docker
containers, thus resulting in ngcc spawning too many worker processes.
This commit addresses these issues in the following ways:
1. We take advantage of the fact that files are written to disk only
after an entry-point has been fully analyzed/compiled. The master
process can now determine whether a worker process has not yet
started writing files to disk (even if it was in the middle of
processing a task) and just put the task back into the tasks queue if
the worker process crashes.
2. The master process keeps track of the transformed files that a worker
process will attempt to write to disk. If the worker process crashes
while writing files, the master process can revert any changes and
put the task back into the tasks queue (without risking corruption).
3. When a worker process crashes while processing a task (which can be a
result of increased memory pressure or too many worker processes),
the master process will not try to re-spawn it. This way the number
or worker processes is gradually adjusted to a level that can be
accomodated by the system's resources.
Examples of ngcc being able to recover after a worker process crashed:
- While idling: https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/682197

The html parser already normalizes line endings (converting `\r\n` to `\n`)
for most text in templates but it was missing the expressions of ICU expansions.
In ViewEngine backticked literal strings, used to define inline templates,
were already normalized by the TypeScript parser.
In Ivy we are parsing the raw text of the source file directly so the line
endings need to be manually normalized.
This change ensures that inline templates have the line endings of ICU
expression normalized correctly, which matches the ViewEngine.
In ViewEngine external templates, defined in HTML files, the behavior was
different, since TypeScript was not normalizing the line endings.
Specifically, ICU expansion "expressions" are not being normalized.
This is a problem because it means that i18n message ids can be different on
different machines that are setup with different line ending handling,
or if the developer moves a template from inline to external or vice versa.
The goal is always to normalize line endings, whether inline or external.
But this would be a breaking change since it would change i18n message ids
that have been previously computed. Therefore this commit aligns the ivy
template parsing to have the same "buggy" behavior for external templates.
There is now a compiler option `i18nNormalizeLineEndingsInICUs`, which
if set to `true` will ensure the correct non-buggy behavior. For the time
being this option defaults to `false` to ensure backward compatibility while
allowing opt-in to the desired behavior. This option's default will be
flipped in a future breaking change release.
Further, when this option is set to `false`, any ICU expression tokens,
which have not been normalized, are added to the `ParseResult` from the
`HtmlParser.parse()` method. In the future, this collection of tokens could
be used to diagnose and encourage developers to migrate their i18n message
ids. See FW-2106.

The cached file-system was implemented to speed up ngcc
processing, but in reality most files are not accessed many times
and there is no noticeable degradation in speed by removing it.
Benchmarking `ngcc -l debug` for AIO on a local machine
gave a range of 196-236 seconds with the cache and 197-224

Moreover, when running in parallel mode, ngcc has a separate

that an unlocker process was spawned for each cluster worker, when

the top of `node_modules/` by the package manager), but would fail to

When the compiler needs to convert a type reference to a value
expression, it may encounter a type that refers to a namespaced symbol.
Such namespaces need to be handled specially as there's various forms
available. Consider a namespace named "ns":
1. One can refer to a namespace by itself: `ns`. A namespace is only
allowed to be used in a type position if it has been merged with a
class, but even if this is the case it may not be possible to convert
that type into a value expression depending on the import form. More
on this later (case a below)
2. One can refer to a type within the namespace: `ns.Foo`. An import
needs to be generated to `ns`, from which the `Foo` property can then
be read.
3. One can refer to a type in a nested namespace within `ns`:
`ns.Foo.Bar` and possibly even deeper nested. The value
representation is similar to case 2, but includes additional property
accesses.
The exact strategy of how to deal with these cases depends on the type
of import used. There's two flavors available:
a. A namespaced import like `import * as ns from 'ns';` that creates
a local namespace that is irrelevant to the import that needs to be
generated (as said import would be used instead of the original
import).
If the local namespace "ns" itself is referred to in a type position,
it is invalid to convert it into a value expression. Some JavaScript
libraries publish a value as default export using `export = MyClass;`
syntax, however it is illegal to refer to that value using "ns".
Consequently, such usage in a type position *must* be accompanied by
an `@Inject` decorator to provide an explicit token.
b. An explicit namespace declaration within a module, that can be
imported using a named import like `import {ns} from 'ns';` where the
"ns" module declares a namespace using `declare namespace ns {}`.
In this case, it's the namespace itself that needs to be imported,
after which any qualified references into the namespace are converted
into property accesses.
Before this change, support for namespaces in the type-to-value
conversion was limited and only worked correctly for a single qualified
name using a namespace import (case 2a). All other cases were either
producing incorrect code or would crash the compiler (case 1a).
Crashing the compiler is not desirable as it does not indicate where
the issue is. Moreover, the result of a type-to-value conversion is
irrelevant when an explicit injection token is provided using `@Inject`,
so referring to a namespace in a type position (case 1) could still be
valid.
This commit introduces logic to the type-to-value conversion to be able
to properly deal with all type references to namespaced symbols.

During static evaluation of expressions, the partial evaluator
may come across a binary + operator for which it needs to
evaluate its operands. Any of these operands may be a reference
to an enum member, in which case the enum member's value needs
to be used as literal value, not the enum member reference
itself. This commit fixes the behavior by resolving an
`EnumValue` when used as a literal value.

When TypeScript downlevels ES2015+ code to ES5, it uses some helper
functions to emulate some ES2015+ features, such as spread syntax. The
TypeScript compiler can be configured to emit these helpers into the
transpiled code (which is controlled by the `noEmitHelpers` option -
false by default). It can also be configured to import these helpers
from the `tslib` module (which is controlled by the `importHelpers`
option - false by default).
While most of the time the helpers will be either emitted or imported,
it is possible that one configures their app to neither emit nor import
them. In that case, the helpers could, for example, be made available on
the global object. This is what `@nativescript/angular`
v9.0.0-next-2019-11-12-155500-01 does. See, for example, [common.js][1].
Ngcc must be able to detect and statically evaluate these helpers.
Previously, it was only able to detect emitted or imported helpers.
This commit adds support for detecting these helpers if they are neither
emitted nor imported. It does this by checking identifiers for which no
declaration (either concrete or inline) can be found against a list of
known TypeScript helper function names.

The `NgccReflectionHost`s have logic for detecting certain known
declarations (such as `Object.assign()` and TypeScript helpers), which
allows the `PartialEvaluator` to evaluate expressions it would not be
able to statically evaluate otherwise.
In #36089, `DelegatingReflectionHost` was introduced, which delegates to
a TypeScript `ReflectionHost` when reflecting on TypeScript files, which
for ngcc's case means `.d.ts` files of dependencies. As a result, ngcc
lost the ability to detect TypeScript helpers imported from `tslib`,
because `DelegatingReflectionHost` was not able to apply the known
declaration detection logic while reflecting on `tslib`'s `.d.ts` files.
This commit fixes this by ensuring `DelegatingReflectionHost` calls the
`NgccReflectionHost`'s `detectKnownDeclaration()` method as necessary,
even when using the TypeScript `ReflectionHost`.
NOTE:
The previous commit exposed a bug in ngcc that was hidden due to the
tests' being inconsistent with how the `ReflectionHost`s are used in the
actual program. The changes in this commit are verified by ensuring the
failing tests are now passing (hence no new tests are added).

In #36089, `DelegatingReflectionHost` was introduced. Under the hood, it
delegates another `NgccReflectionHost` in order to reflect over the
program's source files, while using a different TypeScript
`ReflectionHost` to reflect over `.d.ts` files (which is how external
dependencies are represented in the program).
Previously, the `NgccReflectionHost`s were used directly in tests. This
does not exercise them in the way they are exercised in the actual
program, because (when used directly) they will also reflect on `.d.ts`
files too (instead of delegating to the TypeScript `ReflectionHost`).
This could hide bugs that would happen on the actual program.

In Ivy, Angular decorators are compiled into static fields that are
inserted into a class declaration in a TypeScript transform. When
targeting Closure compiler such fields need to be annotated with
`@nocollapse` to prevent them from being lifted from a static field into
a variable, as that would prevent the Ivy runtime from being able to
find the compiled definitions.
Previously, there was a bug in TypeScript where synthetic comments added
in a transform would not be emitted at all, so as a workaround a global
regex-replace was done in the emit's `writeFile` callback that would add
the `@nocollapse` annotation to all static Ivy definition fields. This
approach is no longer possible when ngtsc is running as TypeScript
plugin, as a plugin cannot control emit behavior.
The workaround is no longer necessary, as synthetic comments are now
properly emitted, likely as of
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/22141 which has been
released with TypeScript 2.8.
This change is required for running ngtsc as TypeScript plugin in
Bazel's `ts_library` rule, to move away from the custom `ngc_wrapped`

Ngcc supports providing a project-level configuration to affect how
certain dependencies are processed and also has a built-in fallback
configuration for some unmaintained packages. Each entry in these
configurations could be scoped to specific versions of a package by
providing a version range. If no version range is provided for a
package, it defaults to `*` (with the intention of matching any
version).
Previously, the installed version of a package was tested against the
version range using the [semver][1] package's `satisfies()` function
with the default options. By default, `satisfies()` does not match
pre-releases (see [here][2] for more details on reasoning). While this
makes sense when determining what version of a dependency to install
(trying to avoid unexpected breaking changes), it is not desired in the
case of ngcc.
This commit fixes it by explicitly specifying that pre-release versions
should be matched normally.

Previously we only searched for package paths below the set of `basePaths`
that were computed from the `basePath` provided to ngcc and the set of
`pathMappings`.
In some scenarios, such as hoisted packages, the entry-point is not within
any of the `basePaths` identified above. For example:
```
project
packages
app
node_modules
app-lib (depends on lib1)
node_modules
lib1 (depends on lib2)
node_modules
lib2 (depends on lib3/entry-point)
lib3
entry-point
```
When CLI is compiling `app-lib` ngcc will be given
`project/packages/app/node_modules` as the `basePath.
If ngcc is asked to target `lib2`, the `targetPath` will be
`project/node_modules/lib1/node_modules/lib2`.
Since `lib2` depends upon `lib3/entry-point`, ngcc will need to compute
the package path for `project/node_modules/lib3/entry-point`.
Since `project/node_modules/lib3/entry-point` is not contained in the `basePath`
`project/packages/app/node_modules`, ngcc failed to compute the `packagePath`
correctly, instead assuming that it was the same as the entry-point path.
Now we also consider the nearest `node_modules` folder to the entry-point
path as an additional `basePath`. If one is found then we use the first
directory directly below that `node_modules` directory as the package path.
In the case of our example this extra `basePath` would be `project/node_modules`
which allows us to compute the `packagePath` of `project/node_modules/lib3`.

with how the ViewEngine compiler works. In ViewEngine, library
templates are recompiled with the current application's tsconfig

This commit allows ngcc to use the `preserveWhitespaces` setting
from tsconfig when compiling library templates. One should be aware
that this disallows different projects with different tsconfig settings
to share the same node_modules folder, with regard to whitespace
preservation. But this is already the case in the current ngcc since
this configuration is hard coded right now.

This commit augments the `FactoryDef` declaration of Angular decorated
classes to contain information about the parameter decorators used in
the constructor. If no constructor is present, or none of the parameters
have any Angular decorators, then this will be represented using the
`null` type. Otherwise, a tuple type is used where the entry at index `i`
corresponds with parameter `i`. Each tuple entry can be one of two types:
1. If the associated parameter does not have any Angular decorators,
the tuple entry will be the `null` type.
2. Otherwise, a type literal is used that may declare at least one of
the following properties:
- "attribute": if `@Attribute` is present. The injected attribute's
name is used as string literal type, or the `unknown` type if the
attribute name is not a string literal.
- "self": if `@Self` is present, always of type `true`.
- "skipSelf": if `@SkipSelf` is present, always of type `true`.
- "host": if `@Host` is present, always of type `true`.
- "optional": if `@Optional` is present, always of type `true`.
A property is only present if the corresponding decorator is used.
Note that the `@Inject` decorator is currently not included, as it's
non-trivial to properly convert the token's value expression to a
type that is valid in a declaration file.
Additionally, the `ComponentDefWithMeta` declaration that is created for
Angular components has been extended to include all selectors on
`ng-content` elements within the component's template.
This additional metadata is useful for tooling such as the Angular
Language Service, as it provides the ability to offer suggestions for
directives/components defined in libraries. At the moment, such
tooling extracts the necessary information from the _metadata.json_
manifest file as generated by ngc, however this metadata representation
is being replaced by the information emitted into the declaration files.

When two entry-points overlap, ngcc may attempt to process some

This commit changes ngcc so that if `errorOnFailedEntryPoint` is false, it will

Previously, when an entry-point contained code that caused its compilation
to fail, ngcc would exit in the middle of processing, possibly leaving other
entry-points in a corrupt state.
This change adds a new `errorOnFailedEntryPoint` option to `mainNgcc` that
specifies whether ngcc should exit immediately or log an error and continue
processing other entry-points.
The default is `false` so that ngcc will not error but continue processing
as much as possible. This is useful in post-install hooks, and async CLI
integration, where we do not have as much control over which entry-points
should be processed.
The option is forced to true if the `targetEntryPointPath` is provided,
such as the sync integration with the CLI, since in that case it is targeting
an entry-point that will actually be used in the current project so we do want
ngcc to exit with an error at that point.

Later when we implement the ability to continue processing when tasks have
failed to compile, we will also need to avoid processing tasks that depend
upon the failed task.
This refactoring exposes this list of dependent tasks in a way that can be
used to skip processing of tasks that depend upon a failed task.
It also changes the blocking model of the parallel mode of operation so
that non-typings tasks are now blocked on their corresponding typings task.
Previously the non-typings tasks could be triggered to run in parallel to
the typings task, since they do not have a hard dependency on each other,
but this made it difficult to skip task correctly if the typings task failed,
since it was possible that a non-typings task was already in flight when
the typings task failed. The result of this is a small potential degradation
of performance in async parallel processing mode, in the rare cases that
there were not enough unblocked tasks to make use of all the available
workers.

When ngcc is compiling an entry-point, it uses a `ReflectionHost` that
is specific to its format, e.g. ES2015, ES5, UMD or CommonJS. During the
compilation of that entry-point however, the reflector may be used to
reflect into external libraries using their declaration files.
Up until now this was achieved by letting all `ReflectionHost` classes
consider their parent class for reflector queries, thereby ending up in
the `TypeScriptReflectionHost` that is a common base class for all
reflector hosts. This approach has proven to be prone to bugs, as
failing to call into the base class would cause incompatibilities with
reading from declaration files.
The observation can be made that there's only two distinct kinds of
reflection host queries:
1. the reflector query is about code that is part of the entry-point
that is being compiled, or
2. the reflector query is for an external library that the entry-point
depends on, in which case the information is reflected
from the declaration files.
The `ReflectionHost` that was chosen for the entry-point should serve
only reflector queries for the first case, whereas a regular
`TypeScriptReflectionHost` should be used for the second case. This
avoids the problem where a format-specific `ReflectionHost` fails to
handle the second case correctly, as it isn't even considered for such
reflector queries.
This commit introduces a `ReflectionHost` that delegates to the
`TypeScriptReflectionHost` for AST nodes within declaration files,
otherwise delegating to the format-specific `ReflectionHost`.

Currently, when Angular code is built with Bazel and with Ivy, generated
factory shims (.ngfactory files) are not processed via the majority of
tsickle's transforms. This is a subtle effect of the build infrastructure,
but it boils down to a TsickleHost method `shouldSkipTsickleProcessing`.
For ngc_wrapped builds (Bazel + Angular), this method is defined in the
`@bazel/typescript` (aka bazel rules_typescript) implementation of
`CompilerHost`. The default behavior is to skip tsickle processing for files
which are not present in the original `srcs[]` of the build rule. In
Angular's case, this includes all generated shim files.
For View Engine factories this is probably desirable as they're quite
complex and they've never been tested with tsickle. Ivy factories however
are smaller and very straightforward, and it makes sense to treat them like
any other output.
This commit adjusts two independent implementations of
`shouldSkipTsickleProcessing` to enable transformation of Ivy shims:
* in `@angular/bazel` aka ngc_wrapped, the upstream `@bazel/typescript`
`CompilerHost` is patched to treat .ngfactory files the same as their
original source file, with respect to tsickle processing.
It is currently not possible to test this change as we don't have any test
that inspects tsickle output with bazel. It will be extensively tested in
g3.
* in `ngc`, Angular's own implementation is adjusted to allow for the
processing of shims when compiling with Ivy. This enables a unit test to
be written to validate the correct behavior of tsickle when given a host
that's appropriately configured to process factory shims.
For ngtsc-as-a-plugin, a similar fix will need to be submitted upstream in
tsc_wrapped.

For compiler-cli and schematics (which use the TypeScript AST) a major
breaking change was the introduction of the export form:
```typescript
export * as foo from 'bar';
```
This is a `ts.NamespaceExport`, and the `exportClause` of a
`ts.ExportDeclaration` can now take this type as well as `ts.NamedExports`.
This broke a lot of places where `exportClause` was assumed to be
`ts.NamedExports`.
For the most part these breakages were in cases where it is not necessary
to handle the new `ts.NamedExports` anyway. ngtsc's design uses the
`ts.TypeChecker` APIs to understand syntax and so automatically supports the
new form of exports.
The View Engine compiler on the other hand extracts TS structures into
metadata.json files, and that format was not designed for namespaced
exports. As a result it will take a nontrivial amount of work if we want to
support such exports in View Engine. For now, these new exports are not
accounted for in metadata.json, and so using them in "folded" Angular
expressions will result in errors (probably claiming that the referenced
exported namespace doesn't exist).
Care was taken to only use TS APIs which are present in 3.7/3.6, as Angular
needs to remain compatible with these for the time being.

Prior to this commit, while calculating the scope for a module, Ivy compiler processed `declarations` field first and `imports` after that. That results in a couple issues:
* for Pipes with the same `name` and present in `declarations` and in an imported module, Pipe from imported module was selected. In View Engine the logic is opposite: Pipes from `declarations` field receive higher priority.
* for Directives with the same selector and present in `declarations` and in an imported module, we first invoked the logic of a Directive from `declarations` field and after that - imported Directive logic. In View Engine, it was the opposite and the logic of a Directive from the `declarations` field was invoked last.
In order to align Ivy and View Engine behavior, this commit updates the logic in which we populate module scope: we first process all imports and after that handle `declarations` field. As a result, in Ivy both use-cases listed above work similar to View Engine.

Currently, when Angular code is built with Bazel and with Ivy, generated
factory shims (.ngfactory files) are not processed via the majority of
tsickle's transforms. This is a subtle effect of the build infrastructure,
but it boils down to a TsickleHost method `shouldSkipTsickleProcessing`.
For ngc_wrapped builds (Bazel + Angular), this method is defined in the
`@bazel/typescript` (aka bazel rules_typescript) implementation of
`CompilerHost`. The default behavior is to skip tsickle processing for files
which are not present in the original `srcs[]` of the build rule. In
Angular's case, this includes all generated shim files.
For View Engine factories this is probably desirable as they're quite
complex and they've never been tested with tsickle. Ivy factories however
are smaller and very straightforward, and it makes sense to treat them like
any other output.
This commit adjusts two independent implementations of
`shouldSkipTsickleProcessing` to enable transformation of Ivy shims:
* in `@angular/bazel` aka ngc_wrapped, the upstream `@bazel/typescript`
`CompilerHost` is patched to treat .ngfactory files the same as their
original source file, with respect to tsickle processing.
It is currently not possible to test this change as we don't have any test
that inspects tsickle output with bazel. It will be extensively tested in
g3.
* in `ngc`, Angular's own implementation is adjusted to allow for the
processing of shims when compiling with Ivy. This enables a unit test to
be written to validate the correct behavior of tsickle when given a host
that's appropriately configured to process factory shims.
For ngtsc-as-a-plugin, a similar fix will need to be submitted upstream in
tsc_wrapped.

When the `NgIf` directive is used in a template, its context variables
can be used to capture the bound value. This is typically used together
with a pipe or function call, where the resulting value is captured in a
context variable. There's two syntax forms available:
1. Binding to `NgIfContext.ngIf` using the `as` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="(user$ | async) as user">{{user.name}}</span>
```
2. Binding to `NgIfContext.$implicit` using the `let` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="user$ | async; let user">{{user.name}}</span>
```
Because of the semantics of `ngIf`, it is known that the captured
context variable is non-nullable, however the template type checker
would not consider them as such and still report errors when
`strictNullTypes` is enabled.
This commit updates `NgIf`'s context guard to make the types of the
context variables non-nullable, avoiding the issue.

For view and content queries, the Ivy compiler attempts to statically
evaluate the predicate token so that string predicates containing
comma-separated reference names can be split into an array of strings
during compilation. When the predicate is a dynamic value that cannot be
statically interpreted at compile time, the compiler would previously
produce an error. This behavior breaks a use-case where an `InjectionToken`
is being used as query predicate, as the usage of the `new` keyword
prevents such predicates from being statically evaluated.
This commit changes the behavior to no longer produce an error for
dynamic values. Instead, the expression is emitted as is into the
generated code, postponing the evaluation to happen at runtime.

It's possible to pass a directive as an input to itself. Consider:
```html
<some-cmp #ref [value]="ref">
```
Since the template type-checker attempts to infer a type for `<some-cmp>`
using the values of its inputs, this creates a circular reference where the
type of the `value` input is used in its own inference:
```typescript
var _t0 = SomeCmp.ngTypeCtor({value: _t0});
```
Obviously, this doesn't work. To resolve this, the template type-checker
used to generate a `null!` expression when a reference would otherwise be
circular:
```typescript
var _t0 = SomeCmp.ngTypeCtor({value: null!});
```
This effectively asks TypeScript to infer a value for this context, and
works well to resolve this simple cycle. However, if the template
instead tries to use the circular value in a larger expression:
```html
<some-cmp #ref [value]="ref.prop">
```
The checker would generate:
```typescript
var _t0 = SomeCmp.ngTypeCtor({value: (null!).prop});
```
In this case, TypeScript can't figure out any way `null!` could have a
`prop` key, and so it infers `never` as the type. `(never).prop` is thus a
type error.
This commit implements a better fallback pattern for circular references to
directive types like this. Instead of generating a `null!` in place for the
reference, a type is inferred by calling the type constructor again with
`null!` as its input. This infers the widest possible type for the directive
which is then used to break the cycle:
```typescript
var _t0 = SomeCmp.ngTypeCtor(null!);
var _t1 = SomeCmp.ngTypeCtor({value: _t0.prop});
```
This has the desired effect of validating that `.prop` is legal for the
directive type (the type of `#ref`) while also avoiding a cycle.

Under View Engine's default (non-fullTemplateTypeCheck) checking, object and
array literals which appear in templates are treated as having type `any`.
This allows a number of patterns which would not otherwise compile, such as
indexing an object literal by a string:
```html
{{ {'a': 1, 'b': 2}[value] }}
```
(where `value` is `string`)
Ivy, meanwhile, has always inferred strong types for object literals, even
in its compatibility mode. This commit fixes the bug, and adds the
`strictLiteralTypes` flag to specifically control this inference. When the
flag is `false` (in compatibility mode), object and array literals receive
the `any` type.
PR Close#35462
In its default compatibility mode, the Ivy template type-checker attempts to
emulate the View Engine default mode as accurately as is possible. This
commit addresses a gap in this compatibility that stems from a View Engine
type-checking bug.
Consider two template expressions:
```html
{{ obj?.field }}
{{ fn()?.field }}
```
and suppose that the type of `obj` and `fn()` are the same - both return
either `null` or an object with a `field` property.
Under View Engine, these type-check differently. The `obj` case will catch
if the object type (when not null) does not have a `field` property, while
the `fn()` case will not. This is due to how View Engine represents safe
navigations:
```typescript
// for the 'obj' case
(obj == null ? null as any : obj.field)
// for the 'fn()' case
let tmp: any;
((tmp = fn()) == null ? null as any : tmp.field)
```
Because View Engine uses the same code generation backend as it does to
produce the runtime code for this expression, it uses a ternary for safe
navigation, with a temporary variable to avoid invoking 'fn()' twice. The
type of this temporary variable is 'any', however, which causes the
`tmp.field` check to be meaningless.
Previously, the Ivy template type-checker in compatibility mode assumed that
`fn()?.field` would always check for the presence of 'field' on the non-null
result of `fn()`. This commit emulates the View Engine bug in Ivy's
compatibility mode, so an 'any' type will be inferred under the same
conditions.
As part of this fix, a new format for safe navigation operations in template
type-checking code is introduced. This is based on the realization that
ternary based narrowing is unnecessary.
For the `fn()` case in strict mode, Ivy now generates:
```typescript
(null as any ? fn()!.field : undefined)
```
This effectively uses the ternary operator as a type "or" operation. The
resulting type will be a union of the type of `fn()!.field` with
`undefined`.
For the `fn()` case in compatibility mode, Ivy now emulates the bug with:
```typescript
(fn() as any).field
```
The cast expression includes the call to `fn()` and allows it to be checked
while still returning a type of `any` from the expression.
For the `obj` case in compatibility mode, Ivy now generates:
```typescript
(obj!.field as any)
```
This cast expression still returns `any` for its type, but will check for
the existence of `field` on the type of `obj!`.

In ES5 code, TypeScript requires certain helpers (such as
`__spreadArrays()`) to be able to support ES2015+ features. These
helpers can be either imported from `tslib` (by setting the
`importHelpers` TS compiler option to `true`) or emitted inline (by
setting the `importHelpers` and `noEmitHelpers` TS compiler options to
`false`, which is the default value for both).
Ngtsc's `StaticInterpreter` (which is also used during ngcc processing)
is able to statically evaluate some of these helpers (currently
`__assign()`, `__spread()` and `__spreadArrays()`), as long as
`ReflectionHost#getDefinitionOfFunction()` correctly detects the
declaration of the helper. For this to happen, the left-hand side of the
corresponding call expression (i.e. `__spread(...)` or
`tslib.__spread(...)`) must be evaluated as a function declaration for
`getDefinitionOfFunction()` to be called with.
In the case of imported helpers, the `tslib.__someHelper` expression was
resolved to a function declaration of the form
`export declare function __someHelper(...args: any[][]): any[];`, which
allows `getDefinitionOfFunction()` to correctly map it to a TS helper.
In contrast, in the case of emitted helpers (and regardless of the
module format: `CommonJS`, `ESNext`, `UMD`, etc.)), the `__someHelper`
identifier was resolved to a variable declaration of the form
`var __someHelper = (this && this.__someHelper) || function () { ... }`,
which upon further evaluation was categorized as a `DynamicValue`
(prohibiting further evaluation by the `getDefinitionOfFunction()`).
As a result of the above, emitted TypeScript helpers were not evaluated
in ES5 code.

`KnownFn` feature (previously only used for built-in functions).

involving any kind of TS helpers.

In #33705 we made it so that we generate pure functions for object/array literals in order to avoid having them be shared across elements/views. The problem this introduced is that further down the line the `ContantPool` uses the generated literal in order to figure out whether to share an existing factory or to create a new one. `ConstantPool` determines whether to share a factory by creating a key from the AST node and using it to look it up in the factory cache, however the key generation function didn't handle function invocations and replaced them with `null`. This means that the key for `{foo: pureFunction0(...)}` and `{foo: null}` are the same.
These changes rework the logic so that instead of generating a `null` key
for function invocations, we generate a variable called `<unknown>` which
shouldn't be able to collide with anything.

In Ivy's template type checker, event bindings are checked in a closure
to allow for accurate type inference of the `$event` parameter. Because
of the closure, any narrowing effects of template guards will no longer
be in effect when checking the event binding, as TypeScript assumes that
the guard outside of the closure may no longer be true once the closure
is invoked. For more information on TypeScript's Control Flow Analysis,
please refer to https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/9998.
In Angular templates, it is known that an event binding can only be
executed when the view it occurs in is currently rendered, hence the
corresponding template guard is known to hold during the invocation of
an event handler closure. As such, it is desirable that any narrowing
effects from template guards are still in effect within the event
handler closure.
This commit tweaks the generated Type-Check Block (TCB) to repeat all
template guards within an event handler closure. This achieves the

The logic in preanalysis phase may throw `FatalDiagnosticError` errors that contain useful information regarding the origin of the problem. However these errors from preanalysis phase were not intercepted in TraitCompiler, resulting in just error message text be displayed. This commit updates the logic to handle FatalDiagnosticError and transform it before throwing, so that the result diagnostic errors contain the necessary info.

NOTE: This change must be reverted with previous deletes so that it code remains in build-able state.
This change deletes old styling code and replaces it with a simplified styling algorithm.
The mental model for the new algorithm is:
- Create a linked list of styling bindings in the order of priority. All styling bindings ere executed in compiled order and than a linked list of bindings is created in priority order.
- Flush the style bindings at the end of `advance()` instruction. This implies that there are two flush events. One at the end of template `advance` instruction in the template. Second one at the end of `hostBindings` `advance` instruction when processing host bindings (if any).
- Each binding instructions effectively updates the string to represent the string at that location. Because most of the bindings are additive, this is a cheap strategy in most cases. In rare cases the strategy requires removing tokens from the styling up to this point. (We expect that to be rare case)S Because, the bindings are presorted in the order of priority, it is safe to resume the processing of the concatenated string from the last change binding.

Compiler keeps track of number of slots (`vars`) which are needed for binding instructions. Normally each binding instructions allocates a single slot in the `LView` but styling instructions need to allocate two slots.
PR Close#34616
This change moves information from instructions to declarative position:
- `ɵɵallocHostVars(vars)` => `DirectiveDef.hostVars`
- `ɵɵelementHostAttrs(attrs)` => `DirectiveDef.hostAttrs`
When merging directives it is necessary to know about `hostVars` and `hostAttrs`. Before this change the information was stored in the `hostBindings` function. This was problematic, because in order to get to the information the `hostBindings` would have to be executed. In order for `hostBindings` to be executed the directives would have to be instantiated. This means that the directive instantiation would happen before we had knowledge about the `hostAttrs` and as a result the directive could observe in the constructor that not all of the `hostAttrs` have been applied. This further complicates the runtime as we have to apply `hostAttrs` in parts over many invocations.
`ɵɵallocHostVars` was unnecessarily complicated because it would have to update the `LView` (and Blueprint) while existing directives are already executing. By moving it out of `hostBindings` function we can access it statically and we can create correct `LView` (and Blueprint) in a single pass.
This change only changes how the instructions are generated, but does not change the runtime much. (We cheat by emulating the old behavior by calling `ɵɵallocHostVars` and `ɵɵelementHostAttrs`) Subsequent change will refactor the runtime to take advantage of the static information.

Previously, NgtscProgram lived in the main @angular/compiler-cli package
alongside the legacy View Engine compiler. As a result, the main package
depended on all of the ngtsc internal packages, and a significant portion of
ngtsc logic lived in NgtscProgram.
This commit refactors NgtscProgram and moves the main logic of compilation
into a new 'core' package. The new package defines a new API which enables
implementers of TypeScript compilers (compilers built using the TS API) to
support Angular transpilation as well. It involves a new NgCompiler type
which takes a ts.Program and performs Angular analysis and transformations,
as well as an NgCompilerHost which wraps an input ts.CompilerHost and adds
any extra Angular files.
Together, these two classes are used to implement a new NgtscProgram which
adapts the legacy api.Program interface used by the View Engine compiler
onto operations on the new types. The new NgtscProgram implementation is
significantly smaller and easier to reason about.
The new NgCompilerHost replaces the previous GeneratedShimsHostWrapper which
lived in the 'shims' package.
A new 'resource' package is added to support the HostResourceLoader which
previously lived in the outer compiler package.
As a result of the refactoring, the dependencies of the outer
@angular/compiler-cli package on ngtsc internal packages are significantly
trimmed.
This refactoring was driven by the desire to build a plugin interface to the
compiler so that tsc_wrapped (another consumer of the TS compiler APIs) can
perform Angular transpilation on user request.
PR Close#34887
In #34288, ngtsc was refactored to separate the result of the analysis
and resolve phase for more granular incremental rebuilds. In this model,
any errors in one phase transition the trait into an error state, which
prevents it from being ran through subsequent phases. The ngcc compiler
on the other hand did not adopt this strict error model, which would
cause incomplete metadata—due to errors in earlier phases—to be offered
for compilation that could result in a hard crash.
This commit updates ngcc to take advantage of ngtsc's `TraitCompiler`,
that internally manages all Ivy classes that are part of the
compilation. This effectively replaces ngcc's own `AnalyzedFile` and
`AnalyzedClass` types, together with all of the logic to drive the
`DecoratorHandler`s. All of this is now handled in the `TraitCompiler`,
benefiting from its explicit state transitions of `Trait`s so that the
ngcc crash is a thing of the past.

Previously, while trying to build an `NgccReflectionHost`'s
`privateDtsDeclarationMap`, `computePrivateDtsDeclarationMap()` would
try to collect exported declarations from all source files of the
program (i.e. without checking whether they were within the target
package, as happens for declarations in `.d.ts` files).
Most of the time, that would not be a problem, because external packages
would be represented as `.d.ts` files in the program. But when an
external package had no typings, the JS files would be used instead. As
a result, the `ReflectionHost` would try to (unnecessarilly) parse the
file in order to extract exported declarations, which in turn would be
harmless in most cases.
There are certain cases, though, where the `ReflectionHost` would throw
an error, because it cannot parse the external package's JS file. This
could happen, for example, in `UmdReflectionHost`, which expects the
file to contain exactly one statement. See #34544 for more details on a
real-world failure.
This commit fixes the issue by ensuring that
`computePrivateDtsDeclarationMap()` will only collect exported
declarations from files within the target package.

This commit fixes a bug in the incremental rebuild engine of ngtsc, where if
a component was removed from its NgModule, it would not be properly
re-emitted.
The bug stemmed from the fact that whether to emit a file was a decision
based purely on the updated dependency graph, which captures the dependency
structure of the rebuild program. This graph has no edge from the component
to its former module (as it was removed, of course), so the compiler
erroneously decides not to emit the component.
The bug here is that the compiler does know, from the previous dependency
graph, that the component file has logically changed, since its previous
dependency (the module file) has changed. This information was not carried
forward into the set of files which need to be emitted, because it was
assumed that the updated dependency graph was a more accurate source of that
information.
With this commit, the set of files which need emit is pre-populated with the
set of logically changed files, to cover edge cases like this.

FileToModuleHost aliasing supports compilation within environments that have
two properties:
1. A `FileToModuleHost` exists which defines canonical module names for any
given TS file.
2. Dependency restrictions exist which prevent the import of arbitrary files
even if such files are within the .d.ts transitive closure of a
compilation ("strictdeps").
In such an environment, generated imports can only go through import paths
which are already present in the user program. The aliasing system supports
the generation and consumption of such imports at runtime.
`FileToModuleHost` aliasing does not emit re-exports in .d.ts files. This
means that it's safe to rely on alias re-exports in generated .js code (they
are guaranteed to exist at runtime) but not in template type-checking code
(since TS will not be able to follow such imports). Therefore, non-aliased
imports should be used in template type-checking code.
This commit adds a `NoAliasing` flag to `ImportFlags` and sets it when
generating imports in template type-checking code. The testing environment
is also patched to support resolution of FileToModuleHost canonical paths
within the template type-checking program, enabling testing of this change.

Previously, when generating template type-checking code, casts to 'any' were
produced as `expr as any`, regardless of the expression. However, for
certain expression types, this led to precedence issues with the cast. For
example, `a !== b` is a `ts.BinaryExpression`, and wrapping it directly in
the cast yields `a !== b as any`, which is semantically equivalent to
`a !== (b as any)`. This is obviously not what is intended.

wrapping is permitted. For other expressions, parentheses are added to

It's possible to declare multiple inputs for a directive/component which all
map to the same property name. This is usually done in error, as only one of
any bindings to the property will "win".
In the template type-checker, an error was previously being raised as a
result of this ambiguity. Specifically, a type constructor was produced
which required a binding for each field, but only one of the fields had
a value via the binding. TypeScript would (rightfully) error on missing
values for the remaining fields. This ultimately was happening when the
code which generated the default values for "unset" inputs belonging to
directives or pipes used the final mapping from properties to fields as
a source for field names.
Instead, this commit uses the original list of fields to generate unset
input values, which correctly provides values for fields which shared a
property name but didn't receive the final binding.

Consider a library that uses a shared constant for host bindings. e.g.
```ts
export const BASE_BINDINGS= {

host: {...BASE_BINDINGS, '(click)': '...'}
})
export class Dir1 {}
@Directive({

})
export class Dir2 {}

Previously when these components were shipped as part of the
library to NPM, consumers were able to consume `Dir1` and `Dir2`.
No errors showed up.
Now with Ivy, when ngcc tries to process the library, an error
will be thrown. The error is stating that the host bindings should
be an object (which they obviously are). This happens because
TypeScript transforms the object spread to individual
`Object.assign` calls (for compatibility).
The partial evaluator used by the `@Directive` annotation handler
is unable to process this expression because there is no
integrated support for `Object.assign`. In View Engine, this was
not a problem because the `metadata.json` files from the library
were used to compute the host bindings.

Ngcc adds properties to the `package.json` files of the entry-points it
processes to mark them as processed for a format and point to the
created Ivy entry-points (in case of `--create-ivy-entry-points`). When
running ngcc in parallel mode (which is the default for the standalone
ngcc command), multiple formats can be processed simultaneously for the
same entry-point and the order of completion is not deterministic.
Previously, ngcc would append new properties at the end of the target
object in `package.json` as soon as the format processing was completed.
As a result, the order of properties in the resulting `package.json`
(when processing multiple formats for an entry-point in parallel) was
not deterministic. For tools that use file hashes for caching purposes
(such as Bazel), this lead to a high probability of cache misses.
This commit fixes the problem by ensuring that the position of

`Type` to a `ts.TypeNode`, as appropriate. Prior to this change, it
would translate certain Angular expressions into their value equivalent
in TypeScript, instead of the correct type equivalent. This was possible
as the `ExpressionVisitor` interface is not strictly typed, with `any`s
being used for return values.
For example, a literal object was translated into a
`ts.ObjectLiteralExpression`, containing `ts.PropertyAssignment` nodes
as its entries. This has worked without issues as their printed
representation is identical, however it was incorrect from a semantic
point of view. Instead, a `ts.TypeLiteralNode` is created with
`ts.PropertySignature` as its members, which corresponds with the type

In Ivy's template type checker, type constructors are created for all
directive types to allow for accurate type inference to work. The type
checker has two strategies for dealing with such type constructors:
1. They can be emitted local to the type check block/type check file.
2. They can be emitted as static `ngTypeCtor` field into the directive
itself.
The first strategy is preferred, as it avoids having to update the
directive type which would cause a more expensive rebuild. However, this
strategy is not suitable for directives that have constrained generic
types, as those constraints would need to be present on the local type
constructor declaration. This is not trivial, as it requires that any
type references within a type parameter's constraint are imported into
the local context of the type check block.
For example, lets consider the `NgForOf` directive from '@angular/core'
looks as follows:
```typescript
import {NgIterable} from '@angular/core';
export class NgForOf<T, U extends NgIterable<T>> {}
```
The type constructor will then have the signature:
`(o: Pick<i1.NgForOf<T, U>, 'ngForOf'>) => i1.NgForOf<T, U>`
Notice how this refers to the type parameters `T` and `U`, so the type
constructor needs to be emitted into a scope where those types are
available, _and_ have the correct constraints.
Previously, the template type checker would detect the situation where a
type parameter is constrained, and would emit the type constructor
using strategy 2; within the directive type itself. This approach makes
any type references within the generic type constraints lexically
available:
```typescript
export class NgForOf<T, U extends NgIterable<T>> {
static ngTypeCtor<T = any, U extends NgIterable<T> = any>
(o: Pick<NgForOf<T, U>, 'ngForOf'>): NgForOf<T, U> { return null!; }
}
```
This commit introduces the ability to emit a type parameter with
constraints into a different context, under the condition that it can
be imported from an absolute module. This allows a generic type
constructor to be emitted into a type check block or type check file
according to strategy 1, as imports have been generated for all type
references within generic type constraints. For example:
```typescript
import * as i0 from '@angular/core';
import * as i1 from '@angular/common';
const _ctor1: <T = any, U extends i0.NgIterable<T> = any>
(o: Pick<i1.NgForOf<T, U>, 'ngForOf'>) => i1.NgForOf<T, U> = null!;
```
Notice how the generic type constraint of `U` has resulted in an import
of `@angular/core`, and the `NgIterable` is transformed into a qualified
name during the emitting process.

Angular View Engine uses global knowledge to compile the following code:
```typescript
export class Base {
constructor(private vcr: ViewContainerRef) {}
}
@Directive({...})
export class Dir extends Base {
// constructor inherited from base
}
```
Here, `Dir` extends `Base` and inherits its constructor. To create a `Dir`
the arguments to this inherited constructor must be obtained via dependency
injection. View Engine is able to generate a correct factory for `Dir` to do
this because via metadata it knows the arguments of `Base`'s constructor,
even if `Base` is declared in a different library.
In Ivy, DI is entirely a runtime concept. Currently `Dir` is compiled with
an ngDirectiveDef field that delegates its factory to `getInheritedFactory`.
This looks for some kind of factory function on `Base`, which comes up
empty. This case looks identical to an inheritance chain with no
constructors, which works today in Ivy.
Both of these cases will now become an error in this commit. If a decorated
class inherits from an undecorated base class, a diagnostic is produced
informing the user of the need to either explicitly declare a constructor or
to decorate the base class.
