Currently undecorated classes are intentionally not processed with ngcc. This is causing unexpected behavior because decorator handlers such as `base_def.ts` are specifically interested in class definitions without top-level decorators, so that the base definition can be generated if there are Angular-specific class members. In order to ensure that undecorated base-classes work as expected with Ivy, we need to run the decorator handlers for all top-level class declarations (not only for those with decorators). This is similar to when `ngtsc` runs decorator handlers when analyzing source-files. Resolves FW-1355. Fixes https://github.com/angular/components/issues/16178 PR Close #30821
Angular Compatibility Compiler (ngcc)
This compiler will convert node_modules
compiled with ngc
, into node_modules
which
appear to have been compiled with ngtsc
.
This conversion will allow such "legacy" packages to be used by the Ivy rendering engine.
Building
The project is built using Bazel:
yarn bazel build //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc
Unit Testing
The unit tests are built and run using Bazel:
yarn bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc/test
Integration Testing
There are tests that check the behavior of the overall executable:
yarn bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc/test:integration
