This commit does not yet enable accurate source maps into external
templates. This requires additional work to account for escape sequences
which is non-trivial. Inline templates that were represented using a
string or template literal are transplated into the partial declaration
output, so their source maps should be accurate. Note, however, that
the accuracy of source maps is not currently verified in tests; this is

The result of utf-8 encoding a string was represented in a string, where
each individual character represented a single byte according to its
character code. All usages of this data were interested in the byte
itself, so this required conversion from a character back to its code.
This commit simply stores the individual bytes in array to avoid the
conversion. This yields a ~10% performance improvement for i18n message
ID computation.
PR Close#39694
Message ID computation makes extensive use of big integer
multiplications in order to translate the message's fingerprint into
a numerical representation. In large compilations with heavy use of i18n
this was showing up high in profiler sessions.
There are two factors contributing to the bottleneck:
1. a suboptimal big integer representation using strings, which requires
repeated allocation and conversion from a character to numeric digits
and back.
2. repeated computation of the necessary base-256 exponents and their
multiplication factors.
The first bottleneck is addressed using a representation that uses an
array of individual digits. This avoids repeated conversion and
allocation overhead is also greatly reduced, as adding two big integers
can now be done in-place with virtually no memory allocations.
The second point is addressed by a memoized exponentiation pool to
optimize the multiplication of a base-256 exponent.
As an additional optimization are the two 32-bit words now converted to
decimal per word, instead of going through an intermediate byte buffer
and doing the decimal conversion per byte.
The results of these optimizations depend a lot on the number of i18n
messages for which a message should be computed. Benchmarks have shown
that computing message IDs is now ~6x faster for 1,000 messages, ~14x
faster for 10,000 messages, and ~24x faster for 100,000 messages.

the same implicit receiver as when the receiver is omitted. This introduces the following issues:
1. Any time something called `$any` is used, it'll be stripped away, leaving only the first parameter.
2. If something called `$event` is used anywhere in a template, it'll be preserved as `$event`,
rather than being rewritten to `ctx.$event`, causing the value to undefined at runtime. This
applies to listener, property and text bindings.

To support recovery of malformed binding property names like `([a)`,

commit refactors render3's binding attribute parsing to use this method
for multi-delimited bindings (namely via the `()`, `[]`, and `[()]`)
syntax, making the way recovery of malformed bindings in a future patch.
Note that we can keep using a regex for prefix-only binding syntax

At a high level, the current shadow DOM shim logic works by escaping the content of a CSS rule
(e.g. `div {color: red;}` becomes `div {%BLOCK%}`), using a regex to parse out things like the
selector and the rule body, and then re-adding the content after the selector has been modified.
The problem is that the regex has to be very broad in order capture all of the different use cases,
which can cause it to match strings suffixed with a semi-colon in some places where it shouldn't,
like this URL from Google Fonts `https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;500&display=swap`.
Most of the time this is fine, because the logic that escapes the rule content to `%BLOCK%` will
have converted it to something that won't be matched by the regex. However, it breaks down for rules
like `@import` which don't have a body, but can still have quoted content with characters that can
match the regex.
These changes resolve the issue by making a second pass over the escaped string and replacing all
of the remaining quoted content with `%QUOTED%` before parsing it with the regex. Once everything
has been processed, we make a final pass where we restore the quoted content.
In a previous iteration of this PR, I went with a shorter approach which narrowed down the
regex so that it doesn't capture rules without a body. It fixed the issue, but it also ended
up breaking some of the more contrived unit test cases. I decided not to pursue it further, because
we would've ended up with a very long and brittle regex that likely would've broken in even weirder
ways.

The expression parser already has support for recovering on malformed
property reads, but did not have tests describing the recovered ast in
such cases. This commit adds tests to demonstrate such cases; in
particular, the recovered ast is a full PropertyRead but with an empty
property name. This is likely the most preferred option, as it does not
constrain consumers of the AST to what the property name should look
like. Furthermore, we cannot mark the property name as empty in any
other way (e.g. an EmptyExpr) because the property name, as of present,
is a string field rather than an AST itself.
Note that tokens past a malformed property read are not preserved in the
AST (for example in `foo.1234`, `1234` is not preserved in the AST).
This is because the extra tokens do not belong to the singular
expression created by the property read, and there is not a meaningful
way to interpret a secondary expression in a single parsed expression.

a keyed read/write intended by a user. For example, in the malformed
expression `a[1 + = 2`, we assume that the user meant to write a binary
expression for the key of `a`, and assign that key the value `2`. In

are some different interpretations that can be made here, but I think

Let's say we have a code like

Currently this gets parsed into a tree with the element tag `div<span`.
This has at least two downsides:
- An incorrect diagnostic that `</span>` doesn't close an element is
emitted.
- A consumer of the parse tree using it for editor services is unable to
provide correct completions for the opening `<span>` tag.
This patch attempts to fix both issues by instead parsing the code into
the same tree that would be parsed for `<div></div><span>123</span>`.
In particular, we do this by optimistically scanning an open tag as
usual, but if we do not notice a terminating '>', we mark the tag as
"incomplete". A parser then emits an error for the incomplete tag and
adds a synthetic (recovered) element node to the tree with the
incomplete open tag's name.
What's the downside of this? For one, a breaking change.

The first breaking change is that `<` symbols that are ambiguously text

The `R3TargetBinder` accepts an interface for directive metadata which
declares types for `input` and `output` objects. These types convey the
mapping between the property names for an input or output and the
corresponding property name on the component class. Due to
`R3TargetBinder`'s requirements, this mapping was specified with property
names as keys and field names as values.
However, because of duck typing, this interface was accidentally satisifed
by the opposite mapping, of field names to property names, that was produced
in other parts of the compiler. This form more naturally represents the data
model for inputs.
Rather than accept the field -> property mapping and invert it, this commit
introduces a new abstraction for such mappings which is bidirectional,
eliminating the ambiguous plain object type. This mapping uses new,
unambiguous terminology ("class property name" and "binding property name")
and can be used to satisfy both the needs of the binder as well as those of
the template type-checker (field -> property).

object, which meant that you had the following situation:
```
element = <div>some content</div>
sourceSpan = <div>
startSourceSpan = <div>
endSourceSpan = </div>
```
This made `sourceSpan` redundant and meant that if you
wanted a span for the whole element including its content
and closing tag, it had to be computed.
Now `sourceSpan` is separated from `startSourceSpan`
resulting in:
```
element = <div>some content</div>
sourceSpan = <div>some content</div>
startSourceSpan = <div>
endSourceSpan = </div>

The HTML parser gets an element's namespace either from the tag name
(e.g. `<svg:rect>`) or from its parent element `<svg><rect></svg>`) which
breaks down when an element is inside of an SVG `foreignElement`,
because foreign elements allow nodes from a different namespace to be
inserted into an SVG.
These changes add another flag to the tag definitions which tells child
nodes whether to try to inherit their namespaces from their parents.
It also adds a definition for `foreignObject` with the new flag,
allowing elements placed inside it to infer their namespaces instead.

Prior to this change, the unary + and - operators would be parsed as `x - 0`
and `0 - x` respectively. The runtime semantics of these expressions are
equivalent, however they may introduce inaccurate template type checking
errors as the literal type is lost, for example:
```ts
@Component({
template: `<button [disabled]="isAdjacent(-1)"></button>`
})
export class Example {
isAdjacent(direction: -1 | 1): boolean { return false; }
}
```
would incorrectly report a type-check error:
> error TS2345: Argument of type 'number' is not assignable to parameter
of type '-1 | 1'.
Additionally, the translated expression for the unary + operator would be
considered as arithmetic expression with an incompatible left-hand side:
> error TS2362: The left-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of
type 'any', 'number', 'bigint' or an enum type.
To resolve this issues, the implicit transformation should be avoided.
This commit adds a new unary AST node to represent these expressions,
allowing for more accurate type-checking.

ComponentDef to avoid invoking `$localize` function before component initialization (to better
support runtime translations) and also avoid problems with lazy-loading when i18n defs may not

When using the safe navigation operator in a binding expression, a temporary
variable may be used for storing the result of a side-effectful call.
For example, the following template uses a pipe and a safe property access:
```html
<app-person-view [enabled]="enabled" [firstName]="(person$ | async)?.name"></app-person-view>
```
The result of the pipe evaluation is stored in a temporary to be able to check
whether it is present. The temporary variable needs to be declared in a separate
statement and this would also cause the full expression itself to be pulled out
into a separate statement. This would compile into the following
pseudo-code instructions:
```js
var temp = null;
var firstName = (temp = pipe('async', ctx.person$)) == null ? null : temp.name;
property('enabled', ctx.enabled)('firstName', firstName);
```
Notice that the pipe evaluation happens before evaluating the `enabled` binding,
such that the runtime's internal binding index would correspond with `enabled`,
not `firstName`. This introduces a problem when the pipe uses `WrappedValue` to
force a change to be detected, as the runtime would then mark the binding slot
corresponding with `enabled` as dirty, instead of `firstName`. This results
in the `enabled` binding to be updated, triggering setters and affecting how
`OnChanges` is called.
In the pseudo-code above, the intermediate `firstName` variable is not strictly
necessary---it only improved readability a bit---and emitting it inline with
the binding itself avoids the out-of-order execution of the pipe:
```js
var temp = null;
property('enabled', ctx.enabled)
('firstName', (temp = pipe('async', ctx.person$)) == null ? null : temp.name);
```
This commit introduces a new `BindingForm` that results in the above code to be
generated and adds compiler and acceptance tests to verify the proper behavior.

This commit fixes a bug in View Engine whereby the compiler errorneously
thinks that a method of a component has decorator metadata when that
method is one of those in `Object.prototype`, for example `toString`.
This bug is discovered in v10.0.4 of `@angular/language-service` after
the default bundle format was switched from ES5 to ES2015.
ES5 output:
```js
if (propMetadata[propName]) {
decorators.push.apply(decorators, __spread(propMetadata[propName]));
}
```
ES2015 output:
```js
if (propMetadata[propName]) {
decorators.push(...propMetadata[propName]);
}
```
The bug was not discovered in ES5 because the polyfill for the spread
operator happily accepts parameters that do not have the `iterable`
symbol:
```js
function __spread() {
for (var ar = [], i = 0; i < arguments.length; i++)
ar = ar.concat(__read(arguments[i]));
return ar;
}
```
whereas in es2015 it’ll fail since the iterable symbol is not present in
`propMetadata['toString']` which evaluates to a function.

Large strings constants are now wrapped in a function which is called whenever used. This works around a unique
limitation of Closure, where it will **always** inline string literals at **every** usage, regardless of how large the
string literal is or how many times it is used.The workaround is to use a function rather than a string literal.
Closure has differently inlining semantics for functions, where it will check the length of the function and the number
of times it is used before choosing to inline it. By using a function, `ngtsc` makes Closure more conservative about
inlining large strings, and avoids blowing up the bundle size.This optimization is only used if the constant is a large
string. A wrapping function is not included for other use cases, since it would just increase the bundle size and add
unnecessary runtime performance overhead.

HTML is very lenient when it comes to closing elements, so Angular's parser has
rules that specify which elements are implicitly closed when closing a tag.
The parser keeps track of the nesting of tag names using a stack and parsing
a closing tag will pop as many elements off the stack as possible, provided
that the elements can be implicitly closed.
For example, consider the following templates:
- `<div><br></div>`, the `<br>` is implicitly closed when parsing `</div>`,
because `<br>` is a void element.
- `<div><p></div>`, the `<p>` is implicitly closed when parsing `</div>`,
as `<p>` is allowed to be closed by the closing of its parent element.
- `<ul><li>A <li>B</ul>`, the first `<li>` is implicitly closed when parsing
the second `<li>`, whereas the second `<li>` would be implicitly closed when
parsing the `</ul>`.
In all the cases above the parsed structure would be correct, however the source
span of the closing `</div>` would incorrectly be assigned to the element that
is implicitly closed. The problem was that closing an element would associate
the source span with the element at the top of the stack, however this may not
be the element that is actually being closed if some elements would be
implicitly closed.
This commit fixes the issue by assigning the end source span with the element
on the stack that is actually being closed. Any implicitly closed elements that
are popped off the stack will not be assigned an end source span, as the
implicit closing implies that no ending element is present.
Note that there is a difference between self-closed elements such as `<input/>`
and implicitly closed elements such as `<input>`. The former does have an end
source span (identical to its start source span) whereas the latter does not.

Currently Angular internally already handles `InjectionToken` as

developers already relied on this functionality but currently use
workarounds to satisfy the type constraints (e.g. `as any`).
We intend to make this public as it's low-effort to support, and

described in the upcoming guide: https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36144.
In concrete, applications might use injection tokens over classes
for both optional DI and queries, because otherwise such references
cause classes to be always retained. This was also an issue in View
Engine, but now with Ivy, this pattern became worse, as factories are
directly attached to retained classes (ultimately ending up in the
production bundle, while being unused).

In past versions of the View Engine compiler, we added a warning that is
printed whenever the compiler comes across an Angular declaration with a
constructor that does not match suitable DI tokens. The warning mentioned
that in `v6.x` it will turn into an actual error.
This actually happened as expected for most cases. e.g. the constructor
of `@NgModule`, `@Component`'s, `@Pipe`'s etc will be checked and an error
will be reported if constructor is not DI compatible.
The warning has never been removed though as it was still relevant for
unprovided injectables, or injectables serialized into summaries of the
Angular compiler.
As of version 10, classes that use Angular features need an Angular decorator.
This includes base classes of services that use the lifecycles Angular feature.

The html parser already normalizes line endings (converting `\r\n` to `\n`)
for most text in templates but it was missing the expressions of ICU expansions.
In ViewEngine backticked literal strings, used to define inline templates,
were already normalized by the TypeScript parser.
In Ivy we are parsing the raw text of the source file directly so the line
endings need to be manually normalized.
This change ensures that inline templates have the line endings of ICU
expression normalized correctly, which matches the ViewEngine.
In ViewEngine external templates, defined in HTML files, the behavior was
different, since TypeScript was not normalizing the line endings.
Specifically, ICU expansion "expressions" are not being normalized.
This is a problem because it means that i18n message ids can be different on
different machines that are setup with different line ending handling,
or if the developer moves a template from inline to external or vice versa.
The goal is always to normalize line endings, whether inline or external.
But this would be a breaking change since it would change i18n message ids
that have been previously computed. Therefore this commit aligns the ivy
template parsing to have the same "buggy" behavior for external templates.
There is now a compiler option `i18nNormalizeLineEndingsInICUs`, which
if set to `true` will ensure the correct non-buggy behavior. For the time
being this option defaults to `false` to ensure backward compatibility while
allowing opt-in to the desired behavior. This option's default will be
flipped in a future breaking change release.
Further, when this option is set to `false`, any ICU expression tokens,
which have not been normalized, are added to the `ParseResult` from the
`HtmlParser.parse()` method. In the future, this collection of tokens could
be used to diagnose and encourage developers to migrate their i18n message
ids. See FW-2106.

This commit augments the `FactoryDef` declaration of Angular decorated
classes to contain information about the parameter decorators used in
the constructor. If no constructor is present, or none of the parameters
have any Angular decorators, then this will be represented using the
`null` type. Otherwise, a tuple type is used where the entry at index `i`
corresponds with parameter `i`. Each tuple entry can be one of two types:
1. If the associated parameter does not have any Angular decorators,
the tuple entry will be the `null` type.
2. Otherwise, a type literal is used that may declare at least one of
the following properties:
- "attribute": if `@Attribute` is present. The injected attribute's
name is used as string literal type, or the `unknown` type if the
attribute name is not a string literal.
- "self": if `@Self` is present, always of type `true`.
- "skipSelf": if `@SkipSelf` is present, always of type `true`.
- "host": if `@Host` is present, always of type `true`.
- "optional": if `@Optional` is present, always of type `true`.
A property is only present if the corresponding decorator is used.
Note that the `@Inject` decorator is currently not included, as it's
non-trivial to properly convert the token's value expression to a
type that is valid in a declaration file.
Additionally, the `ComponentDefWithMeta` declaration that is created for
Angular components has been extended to include all selectors on
`ng-content` elements within the component's template.
This additional metadata is useful for tooling such as the Angular
Language Service, as it provides the ability to offer suggestions for
directives/components defined in libraries. At the moment, such
tooling extracts the necessary information from the _metadata.json_
manifest file as generated by ngc, however this metadata representation
is being replaced by the information emitted into the declaration files.

This change makes `[class]` and `[className]` distinct. The implication of this is that `[class]` becomes `ɵɵclassMap` instruction but `[className]` becomes `ɵɵproperty' instruction. This means that `[className]` will no longer participate in styling and will overwrite the DOM `class` value.

Prior to this commit, i18n attributes defined on `<ng-template>` tags were not processed by the compiler. This commit adds the necessary logic to handle i18n attributes in the same way how these attrs are processed for regular elements.

This commit removes the `NullAstVisitor` and `visitAstChildren` exported
from `packages/compiler/src/expression_parser/ast.ts` because they
contain duplicate and buggy implementation, and their use cases could be
sufficiently covered by `RecursiveAstVisitor` if the latter implements the
`visit` method. This use case is only needed in the language service.
With this change, any visitor that extends `RecursiveAstVisitor` could
just define their own `visit` function and the parent class will behave
correctly.
A bit of historical context:
In language service, we need a way to tranverse the expression AST in a
selective manner based on where the user's cursor is. This means we need a
"filtering" function to decide which node to visit and which node to not
visit. Instead of refactoring `RecursiveAstVisitor` to support this,
`visitAstChildren` was created. `visitAstChildren` duplicates the
implementation of `RecursiveAstVisitor`, but introduced some bugs along
the way. For example, in `visitKeyedWrite`, it visits
```
obj -> key -> obj
```
instead of
```
obj -> key -> value
```
Moreover, because of the following line
```
visitor.visit && visitor.visit(ast, context) || ast.visit(visitor, context);
```
`visitAstChildren` visits every node *twice*.

two bound attributes to be generated . This commit adds a canonical and
correct usage to show the difference between the two.

* it's tricky to get out of the runfiles tree with `bazel test` as `BUILD_WORKSPACE_DIRECTORY` is not set but I employed a trick to read the `DO_NOT_BUILD_HERE` file that is one level up from `execroot` and that contains the workspace directory.

In #33705 we made it so that we generate pure functions for object/array literals in order to avoid having them be shared across elements/views. The problem this introduced is that further down the line the `ContantPool` uses the generated literal in order to figure out whether to share an existing factory or to create a new one. `ConstantPool` determines whether to share a factory by creating a key from the AST node and using it to look it up in the factory cache, however the key generation function didn't handle function invocations and replaced them with `null`. This means that the key for `{foo: pureFunction0(...)}` and `{foo: null}` are the same.
These changes rework the logic so that instead of generating a `null` key
for function invocations, we generate a variable called `<unknown>` which
shouldn't be able to collide with anything.
Fixes#35298.

Currently Ivy always generates the `$event` function argument, even if it isn't being used by the listener expressions. This can lead to unnecessary bytes being generated, because optimizers won't remove unused arguments by default. These changes add some logic to avoid adding the argument when it isn't required.
PR Close#35097
Currently, would-be binding attributes that are missing binding names
are not parsed as bindings, and fall through as regular attributes. In
some cases, this can lead to a runtime error; trying to assign `#` as a
DOM attribute in an element like in `<div #></div>` fails because `#` is
not a valid attribute name.
Attributes composed of binding prefixes but not defining a binding
should be considered invalid, as this almost certainly indicates an
unintentional elision of a binding by the developer. This commit
introduces error reporting for attributes with a binding name prefix but
no actual binding name.

We had some logic for generating and passing in the `elIndex` parameter into the `hostBindings` function, but it wasn't actually being used for anything. The only place left that had a reference to it was the `StylingBuilder` and it only stored it without referencing it again.
PR Close#34969
Previously we would write to class/style as strings `element.className` and `element.style.cssText`. Turns out that approach is good for initial render but not good for updates. Updates using this approach are problematic because we have to check to see if there was an out of bound write to style and than perform reconciliation. This also requires the browser to bring up CSS parser which is expensive.
Another problem with old approach is that we had to queue the DOM writes and flush them twice. Once on element advance instruction and once in `hostBindings`. The double flushing is expensive but it also means that a directive can observe that styles are not yet written (they are written after directive executes.)
The new approach uses `element.classList.add/remove` and `element.style.setProperty/removeProperty` API for updates only (it continues to use `element.className` and `element.style.cssText` for initial render as it is cheaper.) The other change is that the styling changes are applied immediately (no queueing). This means that it is the instruction which computes priority. In some circumstances it may result in intermediate writes which are than overwritten with new value. (This should be rare)
Overall this change deletes most of the previous code and replaces it with new simplified implement. The simplification results in code savings.

NOTE: This change must be reverted with previous deletes so that it code remains in build-able state.
This change deletes old styling code and replaces it with a simplified styling algorithm.
The mental model for the new algorithm is:
- Create a linked list of styling bindings in the order of priority. All styling bindings ere executed in compiled order and than a linked list of bindings is created in priority order.
- Flush the style bindings at the end of `advance()` instruction. This implies that there are two flush events. One at the end of template `advance` instruction in the template. Second one at the end of `hostBindings` `advance` instruction when processing host bindings (if any).
- Each binding instructions effectively updates the string to represent the string at that location. Because most of the bindings are additive, this is a cheap strategy in most cases. In rare cases the strategy requires removing tokens from the styling up to this point. (We expect that to be rare case)S Because, the bindings are presorted in the order of priority, it is safe to resume the processing of the concatenated string from the last change binding.
PR Close#34616
Compiler keeps track of number of slots (`vars`) which are needed for binding instructions. Normally each binding instructions allocates a single slot in the `LView` but styling instructions need to allocate two slots.
PR Close#34616
This change moves information from instructions to declarative position:
- `ɵɵallocHostVars(vars)` => `DirectiveDef.hostVars`
- `ɵɵelementHostAttrs(attrs)` => `DirectiveDef.hostAttrs`
When merging directives it is necessary to know about `hostVars` and `hostAttrs`. Before this change the information was stored in the `hostBindings` function. This was problematic, because in order to get to the information the `hostBindings` would have to be executed. In order for `hostBindings` to be executed the directives would have to be instantiated. This means that the directive instantiation would happen before we had knowledge about the `hostAttrs` and as a result the directive could observe in the constructor that not all of the `hostAttrs` have been applied. This further complicates the runtime as we have to apply `hostAttrs` in parts over many invocations.
`ɵɵallocHostVars` was unnecessarily complicated because it would have to update the `LView` (and Blueprint) while existing directives are already executing. By moving it out of `hostBindings` function we can access it statically and we can create correct `LView` (and Blueprint) in a single pass.
This change only changes how the instructions are generated, but does not change the runtime much. (We cheat by emulating the old behavior by calling `ɵɵallocHostVars` and `ɵɵelementHostAttrs`) Subsequent change will refactor the runtime to take advantage of the static information.
PR Close#34683
This change introduces class/style reconciliation algorithm for DOM elements.
NOTE: The code is not yet hooked up, it will be used by future style algorithm.
Background:
Styling algorithm currently has [two paths](https://hackmd.io/@5zDGNGArSxiHhgvxRGrg-g/rycZk3N5S)
when computing how the style should be rendered.
1. A direct path which concatenates styling and uses `elemnent.className`/`element.style.cssText` and
2. A merge path which uses internal data structures and uses `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`.
The situation is confusing and hard to follow/maintain. So a future PR will remove the merge-path and do everything with
direct-path. This however breaks when some other code adds class or style to the element without Angular's knowledge.
If this happens instead of switching from direct-path to merge-path algorithm, this change provides a different mental model
whereby we always do `direct-path` but the code which writes to the DOM detects the situation and reconciles the out of bound write.
The reconciliation process is as follows:
1. Detect that no one has modified `className`/`cssText` and if so just write directly (fast path).
2. If out of bounds write did occur, switch from writing using `className`/`cssText` to `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`.
This does require that the write function computes the difference between the previous Angular expected state and current Angular state.
(This requires a parser. The advantage of having a parser is that we can support `style="width: {{exp}}px" kind of bindings.`)
Compute the diff and apply it in non destructive way using `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`
Properties of approach:
- If no out of bounds style modification:
- Very fast code path: Just concatenate string in right order and write them to DOM.
- Class list order is preserved
- If out of bounds style modification detected:
- Penalty for parsing
- Switch to non destructive modification: `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`
- Switch to alphabetical way of setting classes.
