As of TypeScript 3.9, the tsc emit is not compatible with Closure
Compiler due to
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/32011.
There is some hope that this will be fixed by a solution like the one
proposed in
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/38374 but currently it's
unclear if / when that will
happen.
Since the Closure support has been somewhat already broken, and the
tsickle pass has been a source
of headaches for some time for Angular packages, we are removing it for
now while we rethink our
strategy to make Angular Closure compatible outside of Google.
This change has no effect on our Closure compatibility within Google
which work well because all the
code is compiled from sources and passed through tsickle.
This change only disables the tsickle pass but doesn't remove it.
A follow up PR should either remove all the traces of tscikle or
re-enable the fixed version.
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular npm packages no longer contain jsdoc comments
to support Closure Compiler's advanced optimizations
The support for Closure compiler in Angular packages has been
experimental and broken for quite some
time.
As of TS3.9 Closure is unusable with the JavaScript emit. Please follow
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/38374 for more
information and updates.
If you used Closure compiler with Angular in the past, you will likely
be better off consuming
Angular packages built from sources directly rather than consuming the
version we publish on npm
which is primarily optimized for Webpack/Rollup + Terser build pipeline.
As a temporary workaround you might consider using your current build
pipeline with Closure flag
`--compilation_level=SIMPLE`. This flag will ensure that your build
pipeline produces buildable and
runnable artifacts, at the cost of increased payload size due to
advanced optimizations being disabled.
If you were affected by this change, please help us understand your
needs by leaving a comment on https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/37234.

As of version 10, libraries following the APF will no longer contain
ESM5 output. Hence, tests in ngcc need to be updated as they currently
rely on the release output of `@angular/core`.
Additionally, we'd need to support in ngcc that the `module`
property of entry-points no longer necessarily refers to
`esm5` output, but instead can also target `esm2015`.
We currently achieve this by checking the path the `module`
property points to. We can do this because as per APF, the
folder name is known for the esm2015 output. Long-term for
more coverage, we want to sniff the format by looking for
known ES2015 constructs in the file `module` refers to.

The commit adds support to the ngcc.config.js file for setting the

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
seconds without the cache.
Moreover, when running in parallel mode, ngcc has a separate
file cache for each process. This results in excess memory usage.
Notably the master process, which only does analysis of entry-points
holds on to up to 500Mb for AIO when using the cache compared to
only around 30Mb when not using the cache.
Finally, the file-system cache being incorrectly primed with file
contents before being processed has been the cause of a number
of bugs. For example https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/16860#issuecomment-614694269.

AND are not doing compile-time inlining of
translations, in which case the extra
message ids
would add unwanted size to the final source

It is safe to leave this set to true if you
are doing compile-time inlining because the
extra
legacy message ids will all be stripped
during translation.

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.

Since we cannot run `yarn install` with the `--frozen-lockfile` option
(because we want to be able to install the locally built Angular
packages), integration project lockfiles are susceptible to getting
out-of-sync with the corresponding `package.json`. When this happens,
yarn will install the latest available version that satisfies the
version range specified in `package.json`.
This commit adds another line of defense, by specifying exact versions
for the dependencies in `package.json` files (i.e. `1.33.7` instead of
`^1.33.0`). While transitive dependencies will be unpinned, this still
ensures that the same version of direct dependencies will be installed
in case of an out-of-sync lockfile, thus reducing the probability of
random failures.
PR Close#33968
In the `integration_test` CircleCI job, we run `yarn install` on all
projects in the `integration/` directory. If a project has no lockfile
or if the lockfile is out-of-sync with the corresponding `package.json`
file, then the installed dependency versions are no longer pinned, which
can result in different versions being installed between different runs
of the same job (if, for example, a new version is released for a
package) and breaks hermeticity.
This could be prevented by using the `--frozen-lockfile` option with
`yarn install`, but this is not possible with the current setup, because
yarn needs to be able to install the locally built Angular packages,
whose checksums will be different from the ones in the lockfile.
Therefore, we have to manually ensure that the lockfiles remain in-sync
with the corresponding `package.json` files for the rest of the
dependencies.
For example, previously, [cli-hello-world-lazy/yarn.lock][1] had an
entry for `@angular-devkit/build-angular@0.900.0-next.9` (pinned to
`0.900.0-next.9`), but [cli-hello-world-lazy/package.json][2] specified
the `@angular-devkit/build-angular` version as `^0.900.0-rc.0` (note the
leading caret). As a result, since the version in the lock file does not
much the one in `package.json`, the lockfile is ignored and the latest
available version that matches `^0.900.0-rc.0` is installed.
This, for example, started causing unrelated CI failures ([example][3]),
when `@angular-devkit/build-angular@9.0.0-rc.3` was released with a size
improvement.
This commit ensures that all integration projects have a lockfile and
that lockfiles are up-to-date (with the current `package.json` files).

`ngcc` supports both synchronous and asynchronous execution. The default
mode when using `ngcc` programmatically (which is how `@angular/cli` is
using it) is synchronous. When running `ngcc` from the command line
(i.e. via the `ivy-ngcc` script), it runs in async mode.
Previously, the work would be executed in the same way in both modes.
This commit improves the performance of `ngcc` in async mode by
processing tasks in parallel on multiple processes. It uses the Node.js
built-in [`cluster` module](https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html) to
launch a cluster of Node.js processes and take advantage of multi-core
systems.
Preliminary comparisons indicate a 1.8x to 2.6x speed improvement when
processing the angular.io app (apparently depending on the OS, number of
available cores, system load, etc.). Further investigation is needed to
better understand these numbers and identify potential areas of
improvement.

In #31426 a fix was implemented to render namespaced decorator imports
correctly, however it turns out that the fix only worked when decorator
information was extracted from static properties, not when using

The support for decorators that were imported via a namespace,
e.g. `import * as core from `@angular/core` was implemented
piecemeal. This meant that it was easy to miss situations where
a decorator identifier needed to be handled as a namepsaced
import rather than a direct import.
One such issue was that UMD processing of decorators was not
correct: the namespace was being omitted from references to
decorators.
Now the types have been modified to make it clear that a
`Decorator.identifier` could hold a namespaced identifier,
and the corresponding code that uses these types has been
fixed.

Currently undecorated classes are intentionally not processed
with ngcc. This is causing unexpected behavior because decorator
handlers such as `base_def.ts` are specifically interested in class
definitions without top-level decorators, so that the base definition
can be generated if there are Angular-specific class members.
In order to ensure that undecorated base-classes work as expected
with Ivy, we need to run the decorator handlers for all top-level
class declarations (not only for those with decorators). This is similar
to when `ngtsc` runs decorator handlers when analyzing source-files.

A constructor function may have been "synthesized" by TypeScript during
JavaScript emit, in the case no user-defined constructor exists and e.g.
property initializers are used. Those initializers need to be emitted
into a constructor in JavaScript, so the TypeScript compiler generates a
synthetic constructor.
This commit adds identification of such constructors as ngcc needs to be
able to tell if a class did originally have a constructor in the
TypeScript source. When a class has a superclass, a synthesized
constructor must not be considered as a user-defined constructor as that
prevents a base factory call from being created by ngtsc, resulting in a
factory function that does not inject the dependencies of the superclass.
Hence, we identify a default synthesized super call in the constructor
body, according to the structure that TypeScript emits.

When ngtsc compiles @angular/core, it rewrites core imports to the
r3_symbols.ts file that exposes all internal symbols under their
external name. When creating the FESM bundle, the r3_symbols.ts file
causes the external symbol names to be rewritten to their internal name.
Under ngcc compilations of FESM bundles, the indirection of
r3_symbols.ts is no longer in place such that the external names are
retained in the bundle. Previously, the external name `ɵdefineNgModule`
was explicitly declared internally to resolve this issue, but the
recently added `setClassMetadata` was not declared as such, causing
runtime errors.
Instead of relying on the r3_symbols.ts file to perform the rewrite of
the external modules to their internal variants, the translation is
moved into the `ImportManager` during the compilation itself. This
avoids the need for providing the external name manually.
