via ES5 if necessary. The order of the formats to consider is now:

from host bindings (e.g. @HostBinding('style')). This patch
in particular introduces a series of host-specific styling
instructions and changes the existing set of template styling
instructions not to accept directives. The underyling code (which
communicates with the styling algorithm) still works as it did
before.
This PR also separates the styling instruction code into a separate

This fix is for a bug in the ngtsc PartialEvaluator, which statically
evaluates expressions.
Sometimes, evaluating a reference requires resolving a function which is
declared in another module, and thus no function body is available. To
support this case, the PartialEvaluator has the concept of a foreign
function resolver.
This allows the interpretation of expressions like:
const router = RouterModule.forRoot([]);
even though the definition of the 'forRoot' function has no body. In
ngtsc today, this will be resolved to a Reference to RouterModule itself,
via the ModuleWithProviders foreign function resolver.
However, the PartialEvaluator also associates any Identifiers in the path
of this resolution with the Reference. This is done so that if the user
writes
const x = imported.y;
'x' can be generated as a local identifier instead of adding an import for
'y'.
This was at the heart of a bug. In the above case with 'router', the
PartialEvaluator added the identifier 'router' to the Reference generated
(through FFR) to RouterModule.
This is not correct. References that result from FFR expressions may not
have the same value at runtime as they do at compile time (indeed, this is
not the case for ModuleWithProviders). The Reference generated via FFR is
"synthetic" in the sense that it's constructed based on a useful
interpretation of the code, not an accurate representation of the runtime
value. Therefore, it may not be legal to refer to the Reference via the
'router' identifier.
This commit adds the ability to mark such a Reference as 'synthetic', which
allows the PartialEvaluator to not add the 'router' identifier down the
line. Tests are included for both the PartialEvaluator itself as well as the
resultant buggy behavior in ngtsc overall.

Currently if an Angular library has multiple unnamed module re-exports, NGC will
generate incorrect metdata if the project is using the flat-module bundle option.
e.g.
_public-api.ts_
```ts
export * from '@mypkg/secondary1';
export * from '@mypkg/secondary2';
```
There are clearly two unnamed re-exports in the `public-api.ts` file. NGC right now
accidentally overwrites all previous re-exports with the last one. Resulting in the
generated metadata only containing a reference to `@mypkg/secondary2`.
This is problematic as it is common for primary library entry-points to have
multiple re-exports (e.g. Material re-exporting all public symbols; or flex-layout
exporting all public symbols from their secondary entry-points).
Currently Angular Material works around this issue by manually creating
a metadata file that declares the re-exports from all unnamed re-exports.
(see: https://github.com/angular/material2/blob/master/tools/package-tools/build-release.ts#L78-L85)
This workaround works fine currently, but is no longer easily integrated when
building the package output with Bazel. In order to be able to build such
libraries with Bazel (Material/flex-layout), we need to make sure that NGC
generates the proper flat-module metadata bundle.

Previously, ngtsc would resolve forward references while evaluating the
bootstrap, declaration, imports, and exports fields of NgModule types.
However, when generating the resulting ngModuleDef, the forward nature of
these references was not taken into consideration, and so the generated JS
code would incorrectly reference types not yet declared.
This commit fixes this issue by introducing function closures in the
NgModuleDef type, similarly to how NgComponentDef uses them for forward
declarations of its directives and pipes arrays. ngtsc will then generate
closures when required, and the runtime will unwrap them if present.

This fixes an issue with commit b6f6b117. In this commit, default imports
processed in a type-to-value conversion were recorded as non-local imports
with a '*' name, and the ImportManager generated a new default import for
them. When transpiled to ES2015 modules, this resulted in the following
correct code:
import i3 from './module';
// somewhere in the file, a value reference of i3:
{type: i3}
However, when the AST with this synthetic import and reference was
transpiled to non-ES2015 modules (for example, to commonjs) an issue
appeared:
var module_1 = require('./module');
{type: i3}
TypeScript renames the imported identifier from i3 to module_1, but doesn't
substitute later references to i3. This is because the import and reference
are both synthetic, and never went through the TypeScript AST step of
"binding" which associates the reference to its import. This association is
important during emit when the identifiers might change.
Synthetic (transformer-added) imports will never be bound properly. The only
possible solution is to reuse the user's original import and the identifier
from it, which will be properly downleveled. The issue with this approach
(which prompted the fix in b6f6b117) is that if the import is only used in a
type position, TypeScript will mark it for deletion in the generated JS,
even though additional non-type usages are added in the transformer. This
again would leave a dangling import.
To work around this, it's necessary for the compiler to keep track of
identifiers that it emits which came from default imports, and tell TS not
to remove those imports during transpilation. A `DefaultImportTracker` class
is implemented to perform this tracking. It implements a
`DefaultImportRecorder` interface, which is used to record two significant
pieces of information:
* when a WrappedNodeExpr is generated which refers to a default imported
value, the ts.Identifier is associated to the ts.ImportDeclaration via
the recorder.
* when that WrappedNodeExpr is later emitted as part of the statement /
expression translators, the fact that the ts.Identifier was used is
also recorded.
Combined, this tracking gives the `DefaultImportTracker` enough information
to implement another TS transformer, which can recognize default imports
which were used in the output of the Ivy transform and can prevent them
from being elided. This is done by creating a new ts.ImportDeclaration for
the imports with the same ts.ImportClause. A test verifies that this works.

Sometimes declarations are not exported publicly but are exported under
a private name. In this case, rather than adding a completely new
export to the entry point, we should create an export that aliases the
private name back to the original public name.
This is important when the typings files have been rolled-up using a tool
such as the [API Extractor](https://api-extractor.com/). In this case
the internal type of an aliased private export will be removed completely
from the typings file, so there is no "original" type to re-export.
For example:
If there are the following TS files:
**entry-point.ts**
```ts
export {Internal as External} from './internal';
```
**internal.ts**
```ts
export class Internal {
foo(): void;
}
```
Then the API Extractor might roll up the .d.ts files into:
```ts
export declare class External {
foo(): void;
}
```
In this case ngcc should add an export so the file looks like:
```ts
export declare class External {
foo(): void;
}
export {External as Internal};
```

Previously, when the NgModule scope resolver discovered semantic errors
within a users NgModules, it would throw assertion errors. TODOs in the
codebase indicated these should become ts.Diagnostics eventually.
Besides producing better-looking errors, there is another reason to make
this change asap: these assertions were shadowing actual errors, via an
interesting mechanism:
1) a component would produce a ts.Diagnostic during its analyze() step
2) as a result, it wouldn't register component metadata with the scope
resolver
3) the NgModule for the component references it in exports, which was
detected as an invalid export (no metadata registering it as a
component).
4) the resulting assertion error would crash the compiler, hiding the
real cause of the problem (an invalid component).
This commit should mitigate this problem by converting scoping errors to
proper ts.Diagnostics. Additionally, we should consider registering some
marker indicating a class is a directive/component/pipe without actually
requiring full metadata to be produced for it, which would allow suppression
of errors like "invalid export" for such invalid types.

In the TypeScript compiler API, emit() can be performed either on a single
ts.SourceFile or on the entire ts.Program simultaneously.
ngtsc previously used whole-program emit, which was convenient to use while
spinning up the project but has a significant drawback: it causes a type
checking operation to occur for the whole program, including .d.ts files.
In large Bazel environments (such as Google's codebase), an ngtsc invocation
can have a few .ts files and thousands of .d.ts inputs. This unwanted type
checking is therefore a significant drain on performance.
This commit switches ngtsc to emit each .ts file individually, avoiding the
unwanted type checking.

The content projection mechanism is static, in that it only looks at the static
template nodes before directives are matched and change detection is run.
When you have a selector-based content projection the selection is based
on nodes that are available in the template.
For example:
```
<ng-content selector="[some-attr]"></ng-content>
```
would match
```
<div some-attr="..."></div>
```
If you have an inline-template in your projected nodes. For example:
```
<div *ngIf="..." some-attr="..."></div>
```
This gets pre-parsed and converted to a canonical form.
For example:
```
<ng-template [ngIf]="...">
<div some-attr=".."></div>
</ng-template>
```
Note that only structural attributes (e.g. `*ngIf`) stay with the `<ng-template>`
node. The other attributes move to the contained element inside the template.
When this happens in ivy, the ng-template content is removed
from the component template function and is compiled into its own
template function. But this means that the information about the
attributes that were on the content are lost and the projection
selection mechanism is unable to match the original
`<div *ngIf="..." some-attr>`.
This commit adds support for this in ivy. Attributes are separated into three
groups (Bindings, Templates and "other"). For inline-templates the Bindings
and "other" types are hoisted back from the contained node to the `template()`
instruction, so that they can be used in content projection matching.

ngtsc has cyclic import detection, to determine when adding an import to a
directive or pipe would create a cycle. However, this detection must also
account for already inserted imports, as it's possible for both directions
of a circular import to be inserted by Ivy (as opposed to at least one of
those edges existing in the user's program).
This commit fixes the circular import detection for components to take into
consideration already added edges. This is difficult for one critical
reason: only edges to files which will *actually* be imported should be
considered. However, that depends on which directives & pipes are used in
a given template, which is currently only known by running the
TemplateDefinitionBuilder during the 'compile' phase. This is too late; the
decision whether to use remote scoping (which consults the import graph) is
made during the 'resolve' phase, before any compilation has taken place.
Thus, the only way to correctly consider synthetic edges is for the compiler
to know exactly which directives & pipes are used in a template during
'resolve'. There are two ways to achieve this:
1) refactor `TemplateDefinitionBuilder` to do its work in two phases, with
directive matching occurring as a separate step which can be performed
earlier.
2) use the `R3TargetBinder` in the 'resolve' phase to independently bind the
template and get information about used directives.
Option 1 is ideal, but option 2 is currently used for practical reasons. The
cost of binding the template can be shared with template-typechecking.

In the @Component decorator, the 'host' field is an object which represents
host bindings. The type of this field is complex, but is generally of the
form {[key: string]: string}. Several different kinds of bindings can be
specified, depending on the structure of the key.
For example:
```
@Component({
host: {'[prop]': 'someExpr'}
})
```
will bind an expression 'someExpr' to the property 'prop'. This is known to
be a property binding because of the square brackets in the binding key.
If the binding key is a plain string (no brackets or parentheses), then it
is known as an attribute binding. In this case, the right-hand side is not
interpreted as an expression, but is instead a constant string.
There is no actual requirement that at build time, these constant strings
are known to the compiler, but this was previously enforced as a side effect
of requiring the binding expressions for property and event bindings to be
statically known (as they need to be parsed). This commit breaks that
relationship and allows the attribute bindings to be dynamic. In the case
that they are dynamic, the references to the dynamic values are reflected
into the Ivy instructions for attribute bindings.
PR Close#29033
DynamicValues are generated whenever a partially evaluated expression is
unable to be resolved statically. They contain a reference to the ts.Node
which wasn't resolvable.
They can also be nested. For example, the expression 'a + b' is resolvable
only if 'a' and 'b' are themselves resolvable. If either 'a' or 'b' resolve
to a DynamicValue, the whole expression must also resolve to a DynamicValue.
Previously, if 'a' resolved to a DynamicValue, the entire expression might
have been resolved to the same DynamicValue. This correctly indicated that
the expression wasn't resolvable, but didn't return a reference to the
shallow node that couldn't be resolved (the expression 'a + b'), only a
reference to the deep node that couldn't be resolved ('a').
In certain situations, it's very useful to know the shallow unresolvable
node (for example, to use it verbatim in the output). To support this,
the partial evaluator is updated to always wrap DynamicValue to point to
each unresolvable expression as it's processed, ensuring the receiver can
determine exactly which expression node failed to resolve.

In certain configurations (such as the g3 repository) which have lots of
small compilation units as well as strict dependency checking on generated
code, ngtsc's default strategy of directly importing directives/pipes into
components will not work. To handle these cases, an additional mode is
introduced, and is enabled when using the FileToModuleHost provided by such
compilation environments.
In this mode, when ngtsc encounters an NgModule which re-exports another
from a different file, it will re-export all the directives it contains at
the ES2015 level. The exports will have a predictable name based on the
FileToModuleHost. For example, if the host says that a directive Foo is
from the 'root/external/foo' module, ngtsc will add:
```
export {Foo as ɵng$root$external$foo$$Foo} from 'root/external/foo';

This change is kind of similar to #27466, but instead of ensuring that
these shims can be generated, we also need to make sure that developers
are able to also use the factory shims like with `ngc`.
This issue is now surfacing because we have various old examples which
are now also built with `ngtsc` (due to the bazel migration). On case insensitive
platforms (e.g. windows) these examples cannot be built because ngtsc fails
the app imports a generated shim file (such as the factory shim files).
This is because the `GeneratedShimsHostWrapper` TypeScript host uses
the `getCanonicalFileName` method in order to check whether a given
file/module exists in the generator file maps. e.g.
```
// Generator Map:
'C:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ngfactory.ts' =>
'C:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ts',

// After getCanonicalFileName (notice the **lower-case drive name**)
c:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ngfactory.ts

As seen above, the generator map does not use the canonical file names, as well as
TypeScript internally does not pass around canonical file names. We can fix this by removing
the manual call to `getCanonicalFileName` and just following TypeScript internal-semantics.

bundled metadata references modules using their original relative
path. This means that the bundled metadata is no longer encapsulated
and depends on other emitted files to be emitted in the proper place.
These incorrect relative paths can now cause issues where NGC
looks for the referenced symbols in the incorrect path. e.g.
```
src/
| lib/
| index.ts -> References the call expression using `../../di`
```
Now the metadata looks like that:
```
node_modules/
| @angular/
-- | core/
-- -- | core.metadata.json -> Says that the call expr. is in `../../di`.
| di/
```
Now if NGC tries to use the metadata files and create the summary files,
NGC resolves the call expression to the `node_modules/di` module. Since
the "unexpected" module does not contain the desired symbol, NGC will
error out.
We should fix this by ensuring that we don't ship corrupted metadata
to NPM which contains relative references that can cause such
failures (other imports can be affected as well; it depends on what
modules the developer has installed and how we import our call
expressions).

Currently setting `enableIvy` to true runs a hybrid mode of `ngc` and `ngtsc`. This is counterintuitive given the name of the flag itself.
This PR makes the `true` value equivalent to the previous `ngtsc`, and `ngtsc` becomes an alias for `true`. Effectively this removes the hybrid mode as well since there's no other way to enable it.

Previously, `ngtsc` detected class inheritance in a way that only worked
in TS or ES2015 code. As a result, inheritance would not be detected for
code in ES5 format, such as when running `ngtsc` through `ngcc` to
transform old-style Angular code to ivy format.
This commit fixes it by delegating class inheritance detection to the
current `ReflectionHost`, which is able to correctly interpret the used
code format.

Accounts for schemas in when validating properties in Ivy.
This PR resolves FW-819.
A couple of notes:
* I had to rework the test slightly, in order to have it fail when we expect it to. The one in master is passing since Ivy's validation runs during the update phase, rather than creation.
* I had to deviate from the design in FW-819 and not add an `enableSchema` instruction, because the schema is part of the `NgModule` scope, however the scope is only assigned to a component once all of the module's declarations have been resolved and some of them can be async. Instead, I opted to have the `schemas` on the component definition.

Since we build and publish the individual packages
using Bazel and `build.sh` has been removed, we can
safely remove the `rollup.config.js` files which are no
longer needed because the `ng_package` bazel rule
automatically handles the rollup settings and globals.

The ultimate goal of this commit is to make use of fileNameToModuleName to
get the module specifier to use when generating an import, when that API is
available in the CompilerHost that ngtsc is created with.
As part of getting there, the way in which ngtsc tracks references and
generates import module specifiers is refactored considerably. References
are tracked with the Reference class, and previously ngtsc had several
different kinds of Reference. An AbsoluteReference represented a declaration
which needed to be imported via an absolute module specifier tracked in the
AbsoluteReference, and a RelativeReference represented a declaration from
the local program, imported via relative path or referred to directly by
identifier if possible. Thus, how to refer to a particular declaration was
encoded into the Reference type _at the time of creation of the Reference_.
This commit refactors that logic and reduces Reference to a single class
with no subclasses. A Reference represents a node being referenced, plus
context about how the node was located. This context includes a
"bestGuessOwningModule", the compiler's best guess at which absolute
module specifier has defined this reference. For example, if the compiler
arrives at the declaration of CommonModule via an import to @angular/common,
then any references obtained from CommonModule (e.g. NgIf) will also be
considered to be owned by @angular/common.
A ReferenceEmitter class and accompanying ReferenceEmitStrategy interface
are introduced. To produce an Expression referring to a given Reference'd
node, the ReferenceEmitter consults a sequence of ReferenceEmitStrategy
implementations.
Several different strategies are defined:
- LocalIdentifierStrategy: use local ts.Identifiers if available.
- AbsoluteModuleStrategy: if the Reference has a bestGuessOwningModule,
import the node via an absolute import from that module specifier.
- LogicalProjectStrategy: if the Reference is in the logical project
(is under the project rootDirs), import the node via a relative import.
- FileToModuleStrategy: use a FileToModuleHost to generate the module
specifier by which to import the node.
Depending on the availability of fileNameToModuleName in the CompilerHost,
then, a different collection of these strategies is used for compilation.

This commit introduces a new ngtsc sub-library, 'path', which contains
branded string types for the different kind of paths that ngtsc manipulates.
Having static types for these paths will reduce the number of path-related
bugs (especially on Windows) and will eliminate unnecessary defensive
normalizing.
See the README.md file for more detail.

Previously, ngtsc would throw an error if two decorators were matched on
the same class simultaneously. However, @Injectable is a special case, and
it appears frequently on component, directive, and pipe classes. For pipes
in particular, it's a common pattern to treat the pipe class also as an
injectable service.
ngtsc actually lacked the capability to compile multiple matching
decorators on a class, so this commit adds support for that. Decorator
handlers (and thus the decorators they match) are classified into three
categories: PRIMARY, SHARED, and WEAK.
PRIMARY handlers compile decorators that cannot coexist with other primary
decorators. The handlers for Component, Directive, Pipe, and NgModule are
marked as PRIMARY. A class may only have one decorator from this group.
SHARED handlers compile decorators that can coexist with others. Injectable
is the only decorator in this category, meaning it's valid to put an
@Injectable decorator on a previously decorated class.
WEAK handlers behave like SHARED, but are dropped if any non-WEAK handler
matches a class. The handler which compiles ngBaseDef is WEAK, since
ngBaseDef is only needed if a class doesn't otherwise have a decorator.
Tests are added to validate that @Injectable can coexist with the other
decorators and that an error is generated when mixing the primaries.
PR Close#28523
In the past, @Injectable had no side effects and existing Angular code is
therefore littered with @Injectable usage on classes which are not intended
to be injected.
A common example is:
@Injectable()
class Foo {
constructor(private notInjectable: string) {}
}
and somewhere else:
providers: [{provide: Foo, useFactory: ...})
Here, there is no need for Foo to be injectable - indeed, it's impossible
for the DI system to create an instance of it, as it has a non-injectable
constructor. The provider configures a factory for the DI system to be
able to create instances of Foo.
Adding @Injectable in Ivy signifies that the class's own constructor, and
not a provider, determines how the class will be created.
This commit adds logic to compile classes which are marked with @Injectable
but are otherwise not injectable, and create an ngInjectableDef field with
a factory function that throws an error. This way, existing code in the wild
continues to compile, but if someone attempts to use the injectable it will
fail with a useful error message.
In the case where strictInjectionParameters is set to true, a compile-time
error is thrown instead of the runtime error, as ngtsc has enough
information to determine when injection couldn't possibly be valid.

Prior to this update we had separate contentQueries and contentQueriesRefresh functions to handle creation and update phases. This approach was inconsistent with View Queries, Host Bindings and Template functions that we generate for Component/Directive defs. Now the mentioned 2 functions are combines into one (contentQueries), creation and update logic is separated with RenderFlags (similar to what we have in other generated functions).

With #28594 we refactored the `@angular/compiler` slightly to
allow opting out from external symbol re-exports which are
enabled by default.
Since symbol re-exports only benefit projects which have a
very strict dependency enforcement, external symbols should
not be re-exported by default as this could grow the size of
factory files and cause unexpected behavior with Angular's
AOT symbol resolving (e.g. see: #25644).
Note that the common strict dependency enforcement for source
files does still work with external symbol re-exports disabled,
but there are also strict dependency checks that enforce strict
module dependencies also for _generated files_ (such as the
ngfactory files). This is how Google3 manages it's dependencies
and therefore external symbol re-exports need to be enabled within
Google3.
Also "ngtsc" also does not provide any way of using external symbol
re-exports, so this means that with this change, NGC can partially
match the behavior of "ngtsc" then (unless explicitly opted-out).
As mentioned before, internally at Google symbol re-exports need to
be still enabled, so the `ng_module` Bazel rule will enable the symbol
re-exports by default when running within Blaze.
Fixes#25644.

Previously, using a pipe in an input binding on an ng-template would
evaluate the pipe in the context of node that was processed before the
template. This caused the retrieval of e.g. ChangeDetectorRef to be
incorrect, resulting in one of the following bugs depending on the
template's structure:
1. If the template was at the root of a view, the previously processed
node would be the component's host node outside of the current view.
Accessing that node in the context of the current view results in a crash.
2. For templates not at the root, the ChangeDetectorRef injected into the
pipe would correspond with the previously processed node. If that node
hosts a component, the ChangeDetectorRef would not correspond with the
view that the ng-template is part of.
The solution to the above problem is two-fold:
1. Template compilation is adjusted such that the template instruction
is emitted before any instructions produced by input bindings, such as
pipes. This ensures that pipes are evaluated in the context of the
template's container node.
2. A ChangeDetectorRef can be requested for container nodes.

During analysis, the `ComponentDecoratorHandler` passes the component
template to the `parseTemplate()` function. Previously, there was little or
no information about the original source file, where the template is found,
passed when calling this function.
Now, we correctly compute the URL of the source of the template, both
for external `templateUrl` and in-line `template` cases. Further in the
in-line template case we compute the character range of the template
in its containing source file; *but only in the case that the template is
a simple string literal*. If the template is actually a dynamic value like
an interpolated string or a function call, then we do not try to add the
originating source file information.
The translator that converts Ivy AST nodes to TypeScript now adds these
template specific source mappings, which account for the file where
the template was found, to the templates to support stepping through the
template creation and update code when debugging an Angular application.
Note that some versions of TypeScript have a bug which means they cannot
support external template source-maps. We check for this via the
`canSourceMapExternalTemplates()` helper function and avoid trying to
add template mappings to external templates if not supported.

This commit consolidates the options that can modify the
parsing of text (e.g. HTML, Angular templates, CSS, i18n)
into an AST for further processing into a single `options`
hash.
This makes the code cleaner and more readable, but also
enables us to support further options to parsing without
triggering wide ranging changes to code that should not
be affected by these new options. Specifically, it will let
us pass information about the placement of a template
that is being parsed in its containing file, which is essential
for accurate SourceMap processing.
