Previously the ivy definition calls we going directly after the class constructor function But this meant that the lifecycle hooks attached to the prototype were ignored by the ngtsc compiler. Now the definitions are written to the end of the IIFE block, just before the return statement. Closes #26849 PR Close #26856
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.
