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.
Closes#7158Closes#8264
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Renderer:
* renderComponent method is removed form `Renderer`, only present on `RootRenderer`
* Renderer.setDebugInfo is removed. Renderer.createElement / createText / createTemplateAnchor
now take the DebugInfo directly.
- Query semantics:
* Queries don't work with dynamically loaded components.
* e.g. for router-outlet: loaded components can't be queries via @ViewQuery,
but router-outlet emits an event `activate` now that emits the activated component
- Exception classes and the context inside changed (renamed fields)
- DebugElement.attributes is an Object and not a Map in JS any more
- ChangeDetectorGenConfig was renamed into CompilerConfig
- AppViewManager.createEmbeddedViewInContainer / AppViewManager.createHostViewInContainer
are removed, use the methods in ViewContainerRef instead
- Change detection order changed:
* 1. dirty check component inputs
* 2. dirty check content children
* 3. update render nodes

In Dart, ImmutableLists are just a projection of an underlying list.
I.e. if the underlying list changes, the ImmutableList also changes.
So we can't make optimizations based on checking whether a collection
is an ImmutableList.
This reverts commit a10c02cb4107624b58b4b3f54da6bf0e0e70c6c6.
Closes#8023
Before, you'd get an error like:
```
EXCEPTION: Cannot find a differ supporting object ‘[object Object]’ in [users in UsersCmp@2:14]
```
Now, you get:
```
EXCEPTION: Cannot find a differ supporting object ‘[object Object]’ of type 'Object'. Did you mean to bind ngFor to an Array? in [users in UsersCmp@2:14]
```
Remove couple of circular dependency between modules in Angular 2 ES5 output caused by exception_handler.ts and router_providers.ts.
Fix the build/checkCircularDependency gulp task to call madge properly to detect the circular deps.
Closes#7287
Currently, validators extending built-in validators are treated as built-in.
This can result in an error when both a real built-in validator and a custom one are applied to the same element.
Closes#6981
This resolves Duplicate Identifier issues seen by many users,
at the expense of more typings installation required in some
cases.
Removes the quickstart hack of placing all needed dependencies
typings files in our distribution. Removes dependencies on
nodejs from angular2/core.
Fixes#5973Fixes#5807Fixes#6266
Angular now depends on es6-promise and es6-collections
(and a handful of manual typings) rather than all of es6-shim.
Fixes#5242
We previously had an undocumented breaking change, this is now
documented in this commit.
Fixes#6817
BREAKING CHANGE:
Transitive typings are no longer included in the distribution.
You may need to install typings in your project using
http://github.com/typings/typings
Users now must rely on getting typings from:
- one of the peerDependencies, such as rxjs, which exposes
typings via the moduleResolution=node mechanism.
(see https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/Typings-for-npm-packages)
This happens automatically.
- Using --target ES5 now requires manual installation of
es6-promise and es6-collections typings.
- Using some angular APIs may introduce a dependency on eg. nodejs
or jasmine, and those typings need manual installation as well.
Closes#6267
BEFORE:
The following would throw in the dev mode because `f` would return a new array when called by checkNoChanges.
@Component({
template: `
{{f()}}
`
})
class A {
f() { return [1]; }
}
AFTER:
The checkNoChanges function compares only primitives types for equality, and deeply compares iterables. Other objects cannot cause checkNoChanges to throw. This means that the dev mode would never fail given a legal program, but may allow some illegal programs.
Remove String type check in looseIdentical in JS-mode. It is not necessary as dart2js already compiles `identical` to `===` which compares string contents. Inline call sites.
This improves change detection of plain fields by 40%. On a large internal app the improvement is 5%.
Closes#6364
Resolve all invalid field override errors, workaround current
reflection limitations in Dart Dev Compiler. todo, hello_world and
key_events samples now work with Dart Dev Compiler.
BREAKING CHANGE: remove TemplateRef.elementRef setter
Closes#6441
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
This changes the way we calculate specificity. Instead of using a number,
we use a string, so that combining specificity across parent-child instructions
becomes a matter of concatenating them
Fixes#5848Closes#6011
This commit reverts a8d9dbf that introduced a code size regression (16kb gzipped, 63kb minified) in Dart.
Effect on the hello world app:
gzipped: 105kb -> 89kb
minified: 370kb -> 317kb
BREAKING CHANGE:
- This is very unlikely to be breaking, but I'm still marking just in case. The only change to the user should be that dev mode is driven by Dart's checked mode, like it was in the past.
BREAKING CHANGE
Before
Previously Angular would run in dev prod mode by default, and you could enable the dev mode by calling enableDevMode.
After
Now, Angular runs in the dev mode by default, and you can enable the prod mode by calling enableProdMode.
Assets defined for `templateUrl` and `styleUrls` can now be loaded
in relative to where the component file is placed so long as the
`moduleId` is set within the component annotation.
Closes#5634

BREAKING CHANGE:
toPromise is no longer an instance method of the `Observable` returned
by Angular, and fromPromise is no longer available as a static method.
The easiest way to account for this change in applications is to import
the auto-patching modules from rxjs, which will automatically add these
operators back to the Observable prototype.
```
import 'rxjs/add/operator/toPromise';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/fromPromise';
```
Closes#5542Closes#5626
move to new RxJS distribution.
BREAKING CHANGE:
RxJS imports now are via `rxjs` instead of `@reactivex/rxjs`
Individual operators can be imported `import 'rxjs/operators/map'`
