If ngcc gets updated to a new version then the artifacts left in packages that were processed by the previous version are possibly invalid. Previously we just errored if we found packages that had already been processed by an outdated version. Now we automatically clean the packages that have outdated artifacts so that they can be reprocessed correctly with the current ngcc version. Fixes #35082 PR Close #35079
Angular Compatibility Compiler (ngcc)
This compiler will convert node_modules
compiled with ngc
, into node_modules
which
appear to have been compiled with ngtsc
.
This conversion will allow such "legacy" packages to be used by the Ivy rendering engine.
