Issue raised in PR #6745.
Previously, the transformer name conversion functions could return the
input string on unexpected input, which is almost certainly an error.
`throw` in this case instead, so we know early that something has likely
gone wrong.
Closes#6753
Previously, every .dart file in a package was processed to ensure proper
initialization of deferred loaded libraries.
Update the transformer to avoid processing libraries which we know do
not import any deferred libraries.
Closes#6745
Handle some cases which would previously result in broken code.
- Importing bootstrap.dart deferred
- Using combinators when importing bootstrap.dart
- Importing bootstrap.dart with a prefix
Closes#6749
Previously, we generated the code to initialize the reflector into the
<file>.ng_deps.dart and the compiled template and change detector code
into <file>.template.dart.
Update the transformer to generate all code into <file>.template.dart to
avoid the additional HTTP requests necessary when debugging
applications in Dartium.
Now, using `ng.probe(element)` in the browser console returns
a DebugElement when in dev mode.
`ComponentFixture#debugElement` also returns a new DebugElement.
Breaking Change:
This is a breaking change for unit tests. The API for the DebugElement
has changed. Now, there is a DebugElement or DebugNode for every node
in the DOM, not only nodes with an ElementRef. `componentViewChildren` is
removed, and `childNodes` is a list of ElementNodes corresponding to every
child in the DOM. `query` no longer takes a scope parameter, since
the entire rendered DOM is included in the `childNodes`.
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.componentViewChildren[0];
```
After
```
// Depending on the DOM structure of your component, the
// index may have changed or the first component child
// may be a sub-child.
componentFixture.debugElement.children[0];
```
Before:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'), Scope.all());
```
After:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'));
```
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.elementRef;
```
After:
```
componentFixture.elementRef;
```
BEFORE:
The following would throw in the dev mode because `f` would return a new array when called by checkNoChanges.
@Component({
template: `
{{f()}}
`
})
class A {
f() { return [1]; }
}
AFTER:
The checkNoChanges function compares only primitives types for equality, and deeply compares iterables. Other objects cannot cause checkNoChanges to throw. This means that the dev mode would never fail given a legal program, but may allow some illegal programs.
