ngc can now validate metadata before emitting to verify it doesn't
contain an error symbol that will result in a runtime error if
it is used by the StaticReflector.
To enable this add the section,
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"strictMetadataEmit": true
}
to the top level of the tsconfig.json file passed to ngc.
Enabled metadata validation for packages that are intended to be
used statically.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The deprecated forms APIs in @angular/common have been removed. Please update to the new forms API in @angular/forms. See angular.io for more information.
If a `@NgModule` has a `bootstrap` property, `PlatformRef.bootstrapModule` /
`PlatformRef.bootstrapModuleFactory` will automatically bootstrap the components
listed in there.
If such a property does not exist, `PlatformRef.bootstrapModule` /
`PlatformRef.bootstrapModuleFactory` will try to call the method `ngDoBootstrap(appRef: ApplicationRef)` on the module class.
Otherwise an error is reported.
This makes `bootstrapModuleFactory` wait for promises
returned by `APP_INITIALIZER`s, also making `bootstrapModuleFactory` async.
I.e. now `bootstrapModule` and `bootstrapModuleFactory` behave in the
same way.
This ensures that all code from module instantiation, to creating
`ApplicationRef`s as well as calling `APP_INITIALIZERS` is run
in the Angular zone.
This also moves the invocation of the initializers from the `ApplicationRef`
constructor into the `bootstrapModuleFactory` call, allowing initializers
to get a hold of `ApplicationRef` (see #9101).

BREAKING CHANGES:
- `browserPlatform`/`browserDynamicPlatform`/... have been deprecated and renamed into `platformBrowser`/`platformBrowserDynamic`/....
- `bootstrapModule` and `bootstrapModuleFactory` have been moved to be members of `PlaformRef`.
E.g. `platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(MyModule)`.
Part of #10043
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `@Component.precompile` was renamed to `@Component.entryComponents`
(old property still works but is deprecated)
- `ANALYZE_FOR_PRECOMPILE` was renamed to `ANALYZE_FOR_ENTRY_COMPONENTS` (no deprecations)
This contains major changes to the compiler, bootstrap of the platforms
and test environment initialization.
Main part of #10043Closes#10164
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Semantics and name of `@AppModule` (now `@NgModule`) changed quite a bit.
This is actually not breaking as `@AppModules` were not part of rc.4.
We will have detailed docs on `@NgModule` separately.
- `coreLoadAndBootstrap` and `coreBootstrap` can't be used any more (without migration support).
Use `bootstrapModule` / `bootstrapModuleFactory` instead.
- All Components listed in routes have to be part of the `declarations` of an NgModule.
Either directly on the bootstrap module / lazy loaded module, or in an NgModule imported by them.
"render" is gramatically incorrect and confusing to developers who used this api.
Since webworker apis were exposed only in master, renaming these before the rc2 release
is not a breaking change
Previously these symbols were exposed via platform-browser-dynamic, then we merged then into platform-browser
thinking that tools would know how to shake off the compiler and other dynamic bits not used with the offline
compilation flow. This turned out to be wrong as both webpack and rollup don't have good enough tree-shaking
capabilities to do this today. We think that in the future we'll be able to merge these two entry points into
one, but we need to give tooling some time before we can do it. In the meantime the reintroduction of the -dynamic
package point allows us to separate the compiler dependencies from the rest of the framework.
This change undoes the previous breaking change that removed the platform-browser-dynamic package.
Introduces `ref-` to give a name to an element or a directive (also works for `<template>` elements), and `let-` to introduce an input variable for a `<template>` element.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `#...` now always means `ref-`.
- `<template #abc>` now defines a reference to the TemplateRef, instead of an input variable used inside of the template.
- `#...` inside of a *ngIf, … directives is deprecated.
Use `let …` instead.
- `var-...` is deprecated. Replace with `let-...` for `<template>` elements and `ref-` for non `<template>` elements.

This changes Angular so that it can be used without reflection (assuming a codegen for injectors).
BREAKIKNG CHANGE:
- Drops `APP_COMPONENT` provider. Instead, inject
`ApplicationRef` and read its `componentTypes` property.
- long form bootstrap has changed into the following:
```
var platform = createPlatform(ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate(BROWSER_PROVIDERS));
var appInjector =
ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate([BROWSER_APP_PROVIDERS, appProviders], platform.injector);
coreLoadAndBootstrap(appInjector, MyApp);
```
closes https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/4943
BREAKING CHANGE:
`Location` and other related providers have been moved out of `router` and into `platform/common`. `BrowserPlatformLocation` is not meant to be used directly however advanced configurations may use it via the following import change.
Before:
```
import {
PlatformLocation,
Location,
LocationStrategy,
HashLocationStrategy,
PathLocationStrategy,
APP_BASE_HREF}
from 'angular2/router';
import {BrowserPlatformLocation} from 'angular2/src/router/location/browser_platform_location';
```
After:
```
import {
PlatformLocation,
Location,
LocationStrategy,
HashLocationStrategy,
PathLocationStrategy,
APP_BASE_HREF}
from 'angular2/platform/common';
import {BrowserPlatformLocation} from 'angular2/src/platform/browser/location/browser_platform_location';
```
Closes#7962
Update the Angular 2 transformer to recognize
`package:angular2/platform/browser.dart` as the library which exports
the `bootstrap` function.
Update playground, examples, benchmarks, & tests to import bootstrap from
platform/browser.
Closes#7647
@petebacondarwin deserves credit for most of this commit.
This allows you to specify a regex and serializer function instead
of the path DSL in your route declaration.
```
@RouteConfig([
{ regex: '[a-z]+.[0-9]+',
serializer: (params) => `{params.a}.params.b}`,
component: MyComponent }
])
class Component {}
```
Closes#7325Closes#7126
BREAKING CHANGE
WORKER_RENDER_APP is now deprecated. Use WORKER_RENDER_APPLICATION instead
WORKER_RENDER_APP_COMMON has been replaced by WORKER_RENDER_APPLICATION_COMMON
closes#6184Closes#6378
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Platform pipes can only contain types and arrays of types,
but no bindings any more.
- When using transformers, platform pipes need to be specified explicitly
in the pubspec.yaml via the new config option
`platform_pipes`.
- `Compiler.compileInHost` now returns a `HostViewFactoryRef`
- Component view is not yet created when component constructor is called.
-> use `onInit` lifecycle callback to access the view of a component
- `ViewRef#setLocal` has been moved to new type `EmbeddedViewRef`
- `internalView` is gone, use `EmbeddedViewRef.rootNodes` to access
the root nodes of an embedded view
- `renderer.setElementProperty`, `..setElementStyle`, `..setElementAttribute` now
take a native element instead of an ElementRef
- `Renderer` interface now operates on plain native nodes,
instead of `RenderElementRef`s or `RenderViewRef`s
Closes#5993
BREAKING CHANGE
From the app thread, in both TypeScript and Dart, you bootstrap the app
using `application` instead of `asyncApplication`.
Before:
```TypeScript
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupWebWorker, optionalProviders?)
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
```
Now:
```TypeScript
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.application([WORKER_APP_APPLICATION])
.bootstrap(RootComponent);
```
