When a template contains bound text nodes as root nodes,
we used to store the document fragment that we got from
cloning `template.content`. However, this fragment will be
empty as soon as the view gets attached. Now we store
`null` instead of the document fragment in this case.
Also groups the 3 cases in `_createView` so they are easier to
understand.
But do it during the build process for cjs.
Right now we only need this when we transpile from ts
directly to es5. This is only the case in our
cis build, as for our browser build we only transpile
from ts to es6 via ts and then use traceur to do
the rest.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`AppViewManager.createInPlaceHostView` is replaced by
`AppViewManager.createRootHostView` (for bootstrap) and
`AppViewManager.createFreeHostView` (for imperative components).
The later creates new host elements that are not attached anywhere.
To attach them, use `DomRenderer.getHostElement(hostviewRef)`
to get the host element.
Closes#1920
Also consolidates metadata handling in `ElementInjector`
BREAKING CHANGE:
- renames `DirectiveMetadataReader` into `DirectiveResolver`
and removes `src/core/compiler/directive_metadata`.
Fixes#1712Fixes#1713
BREAKING CHANGE:
VmTurnZone has been renamed to NgZone.
- The public API has not chnanged,
- The "outer" zone is now named "mount" zone (private to NgZone).
The goal is to make implementing a renderer straight forward.
BREAKING_CHANGE:
- Renderer interface was redone / simplified.
- `DirectDomRenderer` was replaced by `DomRenderer`.
- `DirectDomRenderer.setImperativeComponentRootNodes` is replaced
by the following 2 steps:
1. `ViewManager.getComponentView(elementRef) -> ViewRef`
2. `DomRenderer.setComponentViewRootNodes(viewRef, rootNodes)`
- all `@View` annotations need to have a template, but the template
may be empty. Previously views that had a `renderer` property did
not have to have a `template`.
- `dynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoNewLocation` does no more allow
to pass an element, but requires a css selector.
Special syntax: `:document` can be used as prefix to search globally
on the document instead of in the provided parent view.
Part of #1675
In 'angular2/di' the symbol:
- Inject is a decorator
- InjectAnnotation is an annotation
Internally one an get a hold of annotations without *Annotations appened
(to make ts2dart work without workarounds) by importing from
'angular2/src/di/annotations_impl' instead of 'angular2/di'. This is
needed only for users that transpile through TS and through ts2dart.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, `Directive` was the abstract base class of several directives.
Now, `Directive` is the former `Decorator`, and `Component` inherits from it.
BREAKING_CHANGE:
- The special type of `Viewport` directives is removed
in favor of a more general `Decorator` directive
- `ViewContainerRef` now no more has a default `ProtoViewRef`
but requires an explicit one when creating views.
Closes#1536
Add utility methods to convert `render.dom.DirectiveMetadata` to and
from maps. This will allow saving and restoring `DirectiveMetadata` in
the Angular 2 Transformer.
We discussed adding this as a member on `DirectiveMetadata`. Since this
is not necessary for anything except the Transformer, we decided to put
it into a separate file to avoid shipping it with the Angular 2 core
code.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `NgElement` merged into `ElementRef`
- `Compiler.compile…` returns `ProtoViewRef`
- `ViewContainer` uses `ProtoViewRef`s and `ViewRef`s.
- `ViewRef`/`ProtoViewRef` in renderer were renamed to
`RenderViewRef`/`RenderProtoViewRef`.

Previously, light dom nodes that were not used by any content tag
were not removed from a view on redistribute. This lead
to a bug when reusing a view from the view pool, as it
still contained stale reprojected nodes.
Fixes#1416
Major changes:
- `compiler.compileRoot(el, type)`
-> `compiler.compileInHost(type) + viewHydrator.hydrateHostViewInPlace(el, view)`
- move all `hydrate`/`dehydrate` methods out of `View` and `ViewContainer` into
a standalone class `view_hydrator` as private methods and provide new public
methods dedicated to the individual use cases.
Note: This PR does not change the current functionality, only moves it
into different places.
