- Introduce `InjectionToken<T>` which is a parameterized and type-safe
version of `OpaqueToken`.
DEPRECATION:
- `OpaqueToken` is now deprecated, use `InjectionToken<T>` instead.
- `Injector.get(token: any, notFoundValue?: any): any` is now deprecated
use the same method which is now overloaded as
`Injector.get<T>(token: Type<T>|InjectionToken<T>, notFoundValue?: T): T;`.
Migration
- Replace `OpaqueToken` with `InjectionToken<?>` and parameterize it.
- Migrate your code to only use `Type<?>` or `InjectionToken<?>` as
injection tokens. Using other tokens will not be supported in the
future.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Because `injector.get()` is now parameterize it is possible that code
which used to work no longer type checks. Example would be if one
injects `Foo` but configures it as `{provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}`.
The injection instance will be that of `MockFoo` but the type will be
`Foo` instead of `any` as in the past. This means that it was possible
to call a method on `MockFoo` in the past which now will fail type
check. See this example:
```
class Foo {}
class MockFoo extends Foo {
setupMock();
}
var PROVIDERS = [
{provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}
];
...
function myTest(injector: Injector) {
var foo = injector.get(Foo);
// This line used to work since `foo` used to be `any` before this
// change, it will now be `Foo`, and `Foo` does not have `setUpMock()`.
// The fix is to downcast: `injector.get(Foo) as MockFoo`.
foo.setUpMock();
}
```
PR Close#13785
Note: This checks the constructors of `@Injectable` classes more strictly.
E.g this will fail now as the constructor argument has no `@Inject` nor is
the type of the argument a DI token.
```
@Injectable()
class MyService {
constructor(dep: string) {}
}
```
Last part of #12787Closes#12787
This change retracts support for metadata version 2.
The collector used to produce version 2 metadata was incomplete
and can cause the AOT compiler to fail to resolve symbols or
produce other spurious errors.
All libraries compiled and published with 2.3.0 ngc will need
to be recompiled and updated with this change.
feat(tsc-wrapped): recored when to quote a object literal key
Collecting quoted literals is off by default as it introduces
a breaking change in the .metadata.json file. A follow-up commit
will address this.

## Inheritance Semantics:
Decorators:
1) list the decorators of the class and its parents in the ancestor first order
2) only use the last decorator of each kind (e.g. @Component / ...)
Constructor parameters:
If a class inherits from a parent class and does not declare
a constructor, it inherits the parent class constructor,
and with it the parameter metadata of that parent class.
Lifecycle hooks:
Follow the normal class inheritance model,
i.e. lifecycle hooks of parent classes will be called
even if the method is not overwritten in the child class.
## Example
E.g. the following is a valid use of inheritance and it will
also inherit all metadata:
```
@Directive({selector: 'someDir'})
class ParentDirective {
constructor(someDep: SomeDep) {}
ngOnInit() {}
}
class ChildDirective extends ParentDirective {}
```
Closes#11606Closes#12892
- `NgHost` to `CompilerHost`
- `AotCompilerHost.resolveFileToImport` to `AotCompilerHost.fileNameToModuleName`
- `AotCompilerHoset.resolveImportToFile` to `AotCompilerHost.moduleNameToFileName`
This is needed to resolve symbols without `.d.ts` files.
This bumps the version of the metadata from 1 to 2.
This adds logic into `ng_host.ts` to automatically upgrade
version 1 to version 2 metadata by adding the exported symbols
from the `.d.ts` file.
