TypeScript JsDoc parsing, by default, treats occurences of Angular decorators (e.g. `@Component`) in JsDoc comments as JsDoc tags. This commit escapes these decorator strings by copying the raw JS doc onto a dummy symbol in a new SourceFile to make TypeScript re-parse the comment.

With the directive-based control flow users were able to conditionally project content using the `*` syntax. E.g. `<div *ngIf="expr" projectMe></div>` will be projected into `<ng-content select="[projectMe]"/>`, because the attributes and tag name from the `div` are copied to the template via the template creation instruction. With `@if` and `@for` that is not the case, because the conditional is placed *around* elements, rather than *on* them. The result is that content projection won't work in the same way if a user converts from `*ngIf` to `@if`.
These changes aim to cover the most common case by doing the same copying when a control flow node has *one and only one* root element or template node.
This approach comes with some caveats:
1. As soon as any other node is added to the root, the copying behavior won't work anymore. A diagnostic will be added to flag cases like this and to explain how to work around it.
2. If `preserveWhitespaces` is enabled, it's very likely that indentation will break this workaround, because it'll include an additional text node as the first child. We can work around it here, but in a discussion it was decided not to, because the user explicitly opted into preserving the whitespace and we would have to drop it from the generated code. The diagnostic mentioned point #1 will flag such cases to users.

This commit fixes an issue where using literal types in the arguments of an input coercion
function could result in emitting invalid output, due to an assumption that TypeScript makes
when emitting literal types. Specifically, it takes the literal's text from its containing

different source file. This issue has surfaced in the type-check code generator and is
already being addressed there, so this commit moves the relevant `TypeEmitter` class

emitting types in the type translator.

Previously, we supported a `HasConst` trait, allowing an op to be const collected automatically. However, that approach had the shortcoming that each op could only collect a single constant.
Instead, we now provide a `ConstCollectedExpr`, which collects constants at the expression level, allowing ops to have multiple collectible consts.
Then, we use this new abstraction to support the `defer on` conditions.
PR Close#52387
Previously, we had an "empty shell" implementation of defer conditions, and we used separate ops to represent secondary defer blocks.
Now, we have a real scaffolding for supporting the various defer conditions, and the secondary defer block information has been refactored onto the main defer op.
Additionally, to enable this, we refactor the way that using slot indices works. Instead of having a trait that causes users of slot indices to be linked to the allocated slot, we share a single `SlotHandle` object by reference. This allows an op to use slot information for more than one Xref at a time, and eliminates a layer of indirection.

We roughly attempt to match TemplateDefinitionBuilder's pipe creation order, by placing pipe creation instructions after their target elements. However, we cannot fully emulate the "inside-out" ordering TemplateDefinitionBuilder uses when multiple pipes apply to one element, because TemplateDefinitionBuilder creates the pipes as expressions are visited, from the leaves up. Our order is perfectly adequate though.

The correct order of attributes and properties is:
1. Interpolated properties
2. Interpolated attributes
3. Non-interpolated properties
4. Non-interpolated attributes
This includes an additional nuance: singleton attribute interpolations, such as `[attr.foo]="{{bar}}"`, will be "collaped" into a simple `attribute` instruction. However, this is *not* the case for singleton property interpolations! The ordering phase must take this nuance into account to match the TemplateDefinitionBuilder order.
After the project lands, it might be nice to also collapse singleton property interpolations.
PR Close#52289
Previously, we ran the ordering phase near the end of the compilation. However, this meant that phases like slot assignment and variable offset assignment would happen first, and then the nice, monotonically-increasing orders would be scrambled by the reordering.
It's much more intelligible to order first, and then perform these assignments. However, to make this happen, some modifications to the ordering phase are required. In particular, we can no longer rely on `advance` instructions to break up orderable groups.
PR Close#52289
Many instructions consume variable slots, which are used to persist data between update runs. For top-level instructions, the offset into the variable data array is implicitly advanced, because those instructions always run.
However, instructions in non-top-level expressions cannot be assumed to run every time, because they might be conditionally executed. Therefore, they cannot implicitly advance the offset into the variable data, and must be given an explicitly assigned variable offset.
TemplateDefinitionBuilder assigned offsets top-to-bottom for all instructions *except* pure functions. Pure functions would be assigned offsets lazily, on a second pass.
Template Pipeline can now imitate this behavior, when in compatibility mode: pure functions are assigned offsets on a second pass.
This also makes the "variadic var offsets" phase unnecessary -- the new approach is more general and correct.

Previously, inside an event listener, template pipeline would always save the context from restoring a view, e.g.
```
const restored_ctx = r0.ɵɵrestoreView(s);

This is usually correct! However, consider the case of a listener in the template's root view. The appropriate context will already be available via closure capture, and we can just use it (as `ctx`).
Now, the context resolution phase understands that we don't need to use the restored view's saved context if we would have access to it by closure.
Note: we also create a new golden, because the const array is in a harmlessly different order.

Orphan component is an anti-pattern in Angular where a component is rendered while the NgModule declaring it is not installed. It is not easy to capture this scenario, specially in compile time.

This change adds a flag in cli compiler option to enable such checking, and throwing a runtime exception if it happens. Note that such check is only done in dev mode.
Currently the check requires some generated code that is behind ngJitMode flag (i.e., call to ɵɵsetNgModuleScope), and the new flag can be set only if JIT mode is enabled (i.e., supportJitMode=true) otherwise an error will be thrown.

We type check `@switch` blocks by generating identical TS `switch` statements in the TCB, however TS currently has a bug where parenthesized `switch` block expressions don't narrow their types. Since we use parenthesized expressions to wrap AST nodes for diagnostics, this will bug will affect all Angular-generated `switch` statements.
These changes work around the issue by generating `if`/`else if`/`else` statements that represent the `switch`.
Some alternatives that were considered:
1. Moving the `switch` expression to a constant - this is fairly simple to implement, but it won't fully resolve the narrowing issue since the same constant will have to be used in expressions inside the different cases.
2. Removing the outer-most parenthesis from the switch expression - this works and allows us to continue using switch statements, but because we use parenthesized expressions to map diagnostics to their template locations, I wasn't sure if it won't lead to worse template dignostics.

* A safe accesstest. Consider the expression `$any(val)?.foo`. `TemplateDefinitionBuilder` extracts a temporary variable: `($tmp_0_0$ = $ctx$.val) == null ? null : $tmp_0_0$.foo`. It presumably does this because it considers the `$any(...)` to be a function call. However, this is not a real call, so Template Pipeline safely ignores it and declines to generate a temporary.

Consider an `ng-template` which is generated as a result of a structural directive:

This should logically expand into something like the following:
```

Note that the `(click)` handler and the `[title]` property are only present on the inner div, *not* on the enclosing generated `ng-template`.
Previously, Template Pipeline would place these bindings on *both* the tempate and the inner element.
However, we can't just remove them completely, because these bindings should still be matchable on the generated `ng-template` (which is very surprising, but nonetheless true).
We resolve this issue with two improvements:
(1) The ingestion step is now much smarter about determining not only if a binding is on a template element, but whether it actually targets that template element.
(2) We use `ExtractedAttributeOp` directly, rather than going through `BindingOp`, to cause the `ng-template` to still receive these bindings in its `consts` array for matching purposes.

This is a deceptively simple fix for a deep issue. Consider the following template:
```
<button [title]="myTitle" [id]="(auth().identity() | async)" [tabindex]="1">
```
`TemplateDefinitionBuilder` allocates the following variable (binding) slots:
v[0] = [title] binding
v[1] = [id] binding
v[2] = [tabindex] binding
v[3] = pipe binding
v[4] = pipe binding
As you can see, all three top-level property bindings were assigned variable indices. Then, variables for nested expressions were assigned.
Before this change, Template Pipeline would choose the following order:
v[0] = [title] binding
v[1] = [id] binding
v[2] = pipe binding
v[3] = pipe binding
v[4] = [tabindex] binding
With this order, nested expressions have their variables counted and assigned before subsequent top-level property bindings. This results in different variable indices for `pipeBinding` expressions that are not inside the final property binding.
However, this is not just different -- it's actually incorrect! Consider a case like the following:
```
<button [p1]="c ? (a | pipe) : 3" [p2]="b | pipe">
```
These pipe bindings are executed *conditionally*. This means that, because we don't count and assign all the "fixed" variable slots first, i.e. those belonging to the property bindings, their indices might end up incorrect, depending on whether or not a pipeBinding happened as part of the update block.
With this change, we count all variables on top-level ops first, and then descend into all expressions.

1. `triggerIndex` - index at which to find the trigger in the view where it will be rendered.
2. `walkUpTimes` - tells the runtime how many views up it needs to go to find the trigger element. If the argument is omitted, it means that the trigger is in the same view as the deferred block. A positive number means that the runtime needs to go up X amount of times to find the trigger. A negative number means that the trigger is inside the root view of the placeholder block. Negative numbers are capped at -1 since the placeholder is always in the same position at runtime.

Currently the compiler in local mode assumes that the standalone component imports are array expressions. This is not always true as they can be const variables as well. This change allow non-array expressions for standalone component imports field and passes that expression to the downstream tools such as deps tracker to compute the component's deps in runtime.

Content project allows the content to specify its own selector for matching against content projection slots, using the `ngProjectAs` special attribute. We can now treat this attribue specially, and generate the appropriate flag in the consts array, followed by the parsed CSS selector.
PR Close#51544
Supporting content projection requires us to emit three new kinds of output:
1. An `ngContentSelectors` field on the component metadata, which points to an array in the constant pool with all of the `select` attributes from `<ng-content>` elements.
2. One `projectionDef` instruction at the beginning of each root view template function for a component. That `projectionDef` points to a constant pool expression, which contains *parsed* selectors for all `<ng-content>` elements in the root's entire view tree.
3. A `projection` instruction for each `<ng-content>` slot in the view tree. These each get a data slot, a monotonically increasing "content slot", and a pointer to the tag's attributes in the component const array.
We support the first two features entirely within a new compilation phase.
The third feature, collection of processed attributes, is a bit trickier. We now treat `<ng-content>` tags as element-like ops, and use the normal attribute ingestion pipeline to process any attributes, and assign the appropriate `ConstIndex`.
**Note**: We also split up a number of the tests into two expectations files, one for the view functions, and one for other const listerals from the constant pool. This is because `TemplateDefinitionBuilder` emits the literals in a quirky order (mixed in with the view functions) due to how it lazily generates view functions. Our eager ordering is totally different, but by splitting the expectations, we can still share the same tests with `TemplateDefinitionBuilder`.

Today in local compilation mode the NgModule bootstrap definition is moved as it is into the runtime `ɵɵdefineNgModule`. This runtime was initially made for AoT full compilation mode and assumes that the bootstrap info is already flattened and resolved. This is not the case in local compilation where the bootstrap is the raw expression coming from the NgModule decorator and can be a nested array. To get around this problem we move the bootstrap along with other scope info (e.g., declarations, imports, exports) to the runtime`ɵɵsetNgModuleScope` to be further analyzed and flattened in runtime.

Another try at deflaking the tests on Windows. I'm trying a couple of fixes here:
1. I noticed that it's usually the indexer tests that fail during flaky runs. These tests also happen to be the only ones that don't pass in the `files` argument of `NgtscTestEnvironment.setup`. When `files` isn't passed in, we don't hit the file path that sets up the `MockFileSystem`. With these changes I make it so that we always initialize the mock file system.
2. The missing file system error usually comes from the `absoluteFrom` call that initializes the optional `workingDir` argument. My theory is that because it's a default value for an argument, it gets called too early before everything is initialized. These changes move the `absoluteFrom` call further down until it's needed.

Reworks the pure functions to use arrow functions with an implicit return instead of function expressions. This allows us to shave off some bytes for each pure function, because we can avoid some of the syntax.
PR Close#51668
These changes build on top of #51514 to add support for advanced expressions inside the `track` parameter of `for` loop blocks. There are two different outputs that the compiler can generate:
1. If the tracking function only references the item or `$index`, the compiler generates a pure arrow function as a constant references in the `repeaterCreate` instruction.
2. If the tracking function has references to properties outside of the `for` loop block, the compiler will rewrite those references to go through `this` and generate a function declaration. The runtime will `bind` the declaration to the current component instance so that the rewritten `this` references are resolved correctly.
Advanced tracking expression come with the following limitations to ensure the best possible performance:
1. They can only reference the item, `$index` and properties directly on the component instance. This means that there'll be an error when accessing this like local template variables and references. While we could get this to work, we would have to traverse the context tree at runtime which will degrade the performance of the loop, because it's a linear time operation that is performed on each comparison. Furthermore, allowing local references would require us re-evaluate the list when any one of them has changed.
2. Pipes aren't allowed inside the tracking function.
3. Object literals and pipes used inside the tracking expression will be recreated on each invocation.

Adds the logic to generate the instructions for `if` blocks. There are two primary use cases we need to account for:
A conditional that doesn't use the `as` parameter of the `if` block. To support it we generate a nested ternary expression that evaluates to the index of the template whose condition is truthy. If the block doesn't have an `else` branch, we pass in a special `-1` value which means that no view will be rendered.
Example with an `else`:
```ts
// {#if expr}
// ...
// {:else if otherExpr} ...
// {:else} ...
// {/if}
if (rf & 1) {
ɵɵtemplate(0, App_Conditional_0_Template, 0, 0);
ɵɵtemplate(1, App_Conditional_1_Template, 0, 0);
ɵɵtemplate(2, App_Conditional_2_Template, 0, 0);
}
if (rf & 2) {
ɵɵconditional(0, ctx.expr ? 0 : ctx.otherExpr ? 1 : 2);
}
```
Example without an `else`:
```ts
// {#if expr}
// ...
// {:else if otherExpr} ...
// {/if}
if (rf & 1) {
ɵɵtemplate(0, App_Conditional_0_Template, 0, 0);
ɵɵtemplate(1, App_Conditional_1_Template, 0, 0);
}
if (rf & 2) {
ɵɵconditional(0, ctx.expr ? 0 : ctx.otherExpr ? 1 : -1);
}
```
If a conditional captures it's value in an alias (e.g. `{#if expr; as foo}`) we need to assign the value to a temporary variable before passing it along to `conditional`.
```ts
// {#if expr; as alias}...{/if}
if (rf & 1) {
ɵɵtemplate(0, App_Conditional_0_Template, 1, 0);
}
if (rf & 2) {
let App_contFlowTmp;
ɵɵconditional(0, (App_contFlowTmp = ctx.expr) ? 0 : -1, App_contFlowTmp);
}

Angular 16.1 introduced the input transform feature, requiring the partial compilation output to be extended
with a reference to the input transform function. This has resulted in a subtle breaking change, where older
versions of the Angular linker can no longer consume libraries that have started to use this feature.
We do try to support using a 16.1 library from an Angular 16.0 application, but if a library actually
adopts a new feature then this is no longer possible. In such cases, it is desirable to report a message
telling the user that their version of the Angular compiler is too old, as determined by the `"minVersion"`
property that is present in each partial declaration. This version would still indicate that the declaration
required at least Angular 14.0 to be compiled, but this is not accurate once input transforms are being
used. Consequently, this error would not be reported, causing a less informative error once the input transform
was being observed.

If a library is compiling with Angular v16.1.0, the library will break
for users that are still on Angular v16.0.x. This happens because the
`DirectiveDeclaration` or `ComponentDeclaration` types are not expecting
an extra field for `signals` metadata. This field was only added to the
generic types in `16.1.0`- so compilations fail with errors like this:
```
Error: node_modules/@angular/material/icon/index.d.ts:204:18 -
error TS2707: Generic type 'ɵɵComponentDeclaration' requires between 7 and 9 type arguments.
```
To fix this, we quickly roll back the code for inserting this metadata
field. That way, libraries remain compatible with all v16.x framework
versions.
We continue to include the `signals` metadata if `signals: true` is set.
This is not public API anyway right now- so cannot happen- but imagine
we expose some signal APIs in e.g. 16.2.x, then we'd need this metadata
and can reasonably expect signal-component library users to use a more
recent framework core version.

Angular's null-safe access operators differ from Javascript's built-in semantics, in that they short-circuit to `null` instead of `undefined`. This necessitates providing a custom transformation, instead of relying on Typescript or Javascript itseld.
The old TemplateDefinitionBuilder uses a top-down approach based on the Visitor pattern, in which it recursively extracts the left-most safe access, and hoists it to a null check at the top. See `expression_converter.ts` for details.
In this commit, we replace that approach with a new bottom-up algorithm, as part of the template pipeline. This requires an intermediate expression type to represent the not-yet-expanded ternary operators, and is split into its own pass.
Null-safe function calls are not yet implemented, since they will rely on a future temporary variable allocation pass.

According to the HTML specification most attributes are defined as strings, however some can be interpreted as different types like booleans or numbers. [In the HTML standard](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/common-microsyntaxes.html#boolean-attributes), boolean attributes are considered `true` if they are present on a DOM node and `false` if they are omitted. Common examples of boolean attributes are `disabled` on interactive elements like `<button>` or `checked` on `<input type="checkbox">`. Another example of an attribute that is defined as a string, but interpreted as a different type is the `value` attribute of `<input type="number">` which logs a warning and ignores the value if it can't be parsed as a number.
Historically, authoring Angular inputs that match the native behavior in a type-safe way has been difficult for developers, because Angular interprets all static attributes as strings. While some recent TypeScript versions made this easier by allowing setters and getters to have different types, supporting this pattern still requires a lot of boilerplate and additional properties to be declared. For example, currently developers have to write something like this to have a `disabled` input that behaves like the native one:
```typescript
import {Directive, Input} from '@angular/core';
@Directive({selector: 'mat-checkbox'})
export class MatCheckbox {
@Input()
get disabled() {
return this._disabled;
}
set disabled(value: any) {
this._disabled = typeof value === 'boolean' ? value : (value != null && value !== 'false');
}
private _disabled = false;
}
```
This feature aims to address the issue by introducing a `transform` property on inputs. If an input has a `transform` function, any values set through the template will be passed through the function before being assigned to the directive instance. The example from above can be rewritten to the following:
```typescript
import {Directive, Input, booleanAttribute} from '@angular/core';
@Directive({selector: 'mat-checkbox'})
export class MatCheckbox {
@Input({transform: booleanAttribute}) disabled: boolean = false;
}
```
These changes also add the `booleanAttribute` and `numberAttribute` utilities to `@angular/core` since they're common enough to be useful for most projects.

PR Close#50420
Adds the necessary compiler changes to support input transform functions. The compiler output has changed in the following ways:
### Directive handler
The directive handler now extracts a reference to the input transform function and it resolves the type of its first parameter. It also asserts that the type can be referenced in the compiled output and that it doesn't clash with any pre-existing `ngAcceptInputType_` members.
### .d.ts
In the generated declaration files the compiler now inserts an `ngAcceptInputType_` member for each input with a `transform` function. The member's type corresponds to the type of the first parameter of the function, e.g.
```typescript
// foo.directive.ts
@Directive()
export class Foo {
@Input({transform: (incomingValue: string) => parseInt(incomingValue)}) value: number;
}
// foo.directive.d.ts
export class Foo {
value: number;
static ngAcceptInputType_value: string;
}
```
### Type check block
If an input has `transform` function, the TCB will use the type of its first parameter for the setter type. This uses the same infrastructure as the `ngAcceptInputType_` members.
### Directive declaration
The generated runtime directive declaration call now includes the `transform` function in the `inputs` map, if the input is being transformed. The function will be picked up by the runtime in the next commit to do the actual transformation.
```typescript
// foo.directive.ts
@Directive()
export class Foo {
@Input({transform: (incomingValue: string) => parseInt(incomingValue)}) value: number;
}
// foo.directive.js
export class Foo {
ɵdir = ɵɵdefineDirective({
inputs: {
value: ['value', 'value', incomingValue => parseInt(incomingValue)]
}
});
}

NgModules which import standalone components currently list those components
in their injector definitions, because we assume that any standalone
component may export providers from its own imports.
This commit adds an optimization for that emit, which attempts to statically
analyze the NgModule imports and determine which standalone components, if
any are present, do not export providers and thus can be omitted.
This analysis is imperfect, because some imported components may be declared
outside of the current compilation, or transitively import types which are
declared outside the compilation. These types are therefore _assumed_ to
carry providers and so the optimization isn't applied to them.

Adds support for marking a directive input as required. During template type checking, the compiler will verify that all required inputs have been specified and will raise a diagnostic if one or more are missing. Some specifics:
* Inputs are marked as required by passing an object literal with a `required: true` property to the `Input` decorator or into the `inputs` array.
* Required inputs imply that the directive can't work without them. This is why there's a new check that enforces that all required inputs of a host directive are exposed on the host.
* Required input diagnostics are reported through the `OutOfBandDiagnosticRecorder`, rather than generating a new structure in the TCB, because it allows us to provide a better error message.

Consider the following scenario:
1. A TS file with a component and templateUrl exists
2. The template file does not exist.
3. First build: ngtsc will properly report the error, via a FatalDiagnosticError
4. The template file is now created
5. Second build: ngtsc still reports the same errror.
ngtsc persists the analysis data of the component and never invalidates
it when the template/style file becomes available later.
This breaks incremental builds and potentially common workflows
where resource files are added later after the TS file is created. This
did surface as an issue in the Angular CLI yet because Webpack requires
users to re-start the process when a new file is added. With ESBuild
this will change and this also breaks incremental builds with
Bazel/Blaze workers.
To fix this, we have a few options:
* Invalidate the analysis when e.g. the template file is missing. Never
caching it means that it will be re-analyzed on every build iteration.
* Add the resource dependency to ngtsc's incremental file graph. ngtsc
will then know via `host.getModifiedResources` when the file becomes
available- and fresh analysis of component would occur.
The first approach is straightforward to implement and was chosen here.
The second approach would allow ngtsc to re-use more of the analysis
when we know that e.g. the template file still not there, but it
increases complexity unnecessarily because there is no **single**
obvious resource path for e.g. a `templateUrl`. The URL is attempted
to be resolved using multiple strategies, such as TS program root dirs,
or there is support for a custom resolution through
`host.resourceNameToFileName`.
It would be possible to determine some candidate paths and add them to
the dependency tracker, but it seems incomplete given possible external
resolvers like `resourceNameToFileName` and also would likely not have
a sufficient-enough impact given that a broken component decorator is
not expected to remain for too long between N incremental build
iterations.

For standalone components it may be beneficial to group multiple declarations
into a single array, that can then be imported all at once in `Component.imports`.
If this array is declared within a library, however, would the AOT compiler
need to extract the contents of the array from the declaration file. This
requires that the array is constructed using an `as const` cast, which results
in a readonly tuple declaration in the generated .d.ts file of the library:
```ts
export declare const DECLARATIONS: readonly [typeof StandaloneDir];

In AOT compilations, the `strictInjectionParameters` compiler option can
be enabled to report errors when an `@Injectable` annotated class has a
constructor with parameters that do not provide an injection token, e.g.
only a primitive type or interface.
Since Ivy it's become required that any class with Angular behavior
(e.g. the `ngOnDestroy` lifecycle hook) is decorated using an Angular
decorator, which meant that `@Injectable()` may need to have been added
to abstract base classes. Doing so would then report an error if
`strictInjectionParameters` is enabled, if the abstract class has an
incompatible constructor for DI purposes. This may be fine though, as
a subclass may call the constructor explicitly without relying on
Angular's DI mechanism.
Therefore, this commit excludes abstract classes from the
`strictInjectionParameters` check. This avoids an error from being
reported at compile time. If the constructor ends up being used by
Angular's DI system at runtime, then the factory function of the
abstract class will throw an error by means of the `ɵɵinvalidFactory`
instruction.
In addition to the runtime error, this commit also analyzes the inheritance
chain of an injectable without a constructor to verify that their inherited
constructor is valid.
BREAKING CHANGE: Invalid constructors for DI may now report compilation errors
When a class inherits its constructor from a base class, the compiler may now
report an error when that constructor cannot be used for DI purposes. This may
either be because the base class is missing an Angular decorator such as
`@Injectable()` or `@Directive()`, or because the constructor contains parameters
which do not have an associated token (such as primitive types like `string`).
These situations used to behave unexpectedly at runtime, where the class may be
constructed without any of its constructor parameters, so this is now reported
as an error during compilation.
Any new errors that may be reported because of this change can be resolved either
by decorating the base class from which the constructor is inherited, or by adding
an explicit constructor to the class for which the error is reported.

This is the compile-time implementation of the `hostDirectives` feature plus a little bit of runtime code to illustrate how the newly-generated code will plug into the runtime. It works by creating a call to the new `ɵɵHostDirectivesFeature` feature whenever a directive has a `hostDirectives` field. Afterwards `ɵɵHostDirectivesFeature` will patch a new function onto the directive definition that will be invoked during directive matching.
For example, if we take the following definition:
```ts
@Directive({
hostDirectives: [HostA, {directive: HostB, inputs: ['input: alias']}]
})
class MyDir {}
```
Will compile to:
```js
MyDir.ɵdir = ɵɵdefineComponent({
features: [ɵɵHostDirectivesFeature([HostA, {
directive: HostB,
inputs: {
input: "alias"
}
}])]
});

When generating .d.ts metadata for NgModules, by default we emit type
references to their declarations, imports, and exports. However, this
information is not necessarily useful to consumers. References to private
directives (those that aren't exported by the NgModule) for example aren't
at all useful as they can only affect other components declared in the
NgModule. References to imports are of limited usefulness - they might be
helpful for an IDE to understand the DI structure of an application, but
aren't at all used by a downstream compiler.
Generating this metadata is not without cost. When an incremental build
system uses changes in inputs to determine when a rebuild is necessary, any
changes in .d.ts files might cause downstream targets to rebuild. If those
.d.ts changes are in the "private" side of the NgModule (imports or non-
exported directives/pipes), then these rebuilds are wholly unnecessary.
This commit introduces the `onlyPublishPublicTypingsForNgModules` flag for
the compiler. When this flag is set, the compiler will filter the emitted
references in NgModule .d.ts output and only reference those directives/
pipes that are exported from the NgModule (its public API surface). Omitting
the flag preserves the existing behavior of emitting all references, both
public and private.
This is especially useful for build systems such as Bazel.

Angular generally supports cycles between components in the same NgModule.
We have a mechanism of moving the component scope declaration into the
NgModule file in this case. This ensures that Angular never itself
introduces an import which creates a cycle.
What happens if the cycle already exists in the user's program, though, is a
bit different. In these cases, the "correct" emit for Angular is to generate
the component scope (whether direct or remote) inside of a closure, to
prevent evaluating the scope's references until module evaluation is
complete and all cyclic imports have been resolved. We don't want to do this
for *all* scopes because the code size cost of emitting a function wrapper
is non-zero.
In this fix, we take the presence of a `forwardRef` in a component's
`imports` or in an NgModule `declarations` or `imports` as a sign that
component scopes emitted into those files need to be protected against
cyclic references. In a future commit, we may introduce a warning or error
if cyclic imports are not protected behind `forwardRef` in these cases, but
this will take some time to implement.

This commit fixes a small issue in the logic around the calculation of
template scopes for standalone components. These scopes include a
`Reference` for each dependency of a standalone component, which is used to
generate references to that dependency in various contexts.
Previously, the `Reference` used for a dependency was the one generated from
its own metadata. For example, a referenced directive used the `Reference`
that was created when analyzing the directive declaration itself. This still
works, as the compiler is always able to emit a reference to any valid
`Reference`. However, it's not optimal.
The `Reference` which should be used instead is the one generated from
analyzing the standalone component's `imports` array, which has knowledge of
how the dependency is referenced from within the standalone component's file
itself. This allows the compiler to skip creating a new import for the
dependency when emitting the standalone component, and use the existing,
user-authored import instead. This saves on code size and avoids taxing the
bundler with unnecessary imports.
PR Close#46029
The Angular compiler performs cycle detection when generating imports within
component files. This was previously necessary as reifying dependencies
discovered via NgModules into the component output could add imports that
weren't present in the original component and potentially create cycles.
Doing this could cause order-of-execution issues with existing user imports,
so the compiler detects this case and falls back to an alternative way of
specifying component dependencies that doesn't risk creating cycles.
For standalone components, Angular does not need to add new imports to the
component file as the user has already explicitly referenced dependencies
in the `@Component.imports`. As a result, the cycle detection can be
skipped.
Correctly authoring a program with import cycles is always challenging. One
side of a cyclic import will always initially evaluate to `undefined`, and
this can result in errors in the component definition when this happens
within component `imports`.
Our compiler _could_ detect the cycle and choose to wrap the component
dependencies in an automatic closure instead, avoiding any issues with
`undefined` during an eager evaluation. However, this commit makes an active
choice not to do that as it only serves to mask the problems with cyclic
imports. Future refactorings may cause the "other half" of the cycle to
break. Users should instead be aware of the potential problems with cycles
and explicitly defer evaluations with `forwardRef` where needed. This
ensures that future implementations of Angular compilation which may not be
able to automatically detect import cycles and correct accordingly can still
compile such components.

In AOT compilations, the `strictInjectionParameters` compiler option can
be enabled to report errors when an `@Injectable` annotated class has a
constructor with parameters that do not provide an injection token, e.g.

Since Ivy it's become required that any class with Angular behavior
(e.g. the `ngOnDestroy` lifecycle hook) is decorated using an Angular
decorator, which meant that `@Injectable()` may need to have been added
to abstract base classes. Doing so would then report an error if
`strictInjectionParameters` is enabled, if the abstract class has an
incompatible constructor for DI purposes. This may be fine though, as
a subclass may call the constructor explicitly without relying on
Angular's DI mechanism.
Therefore, this commit excludes abstract classes from the

Angular's DI system at runtime, then the factory function of the
abstract class will throw an error by means of the `ɵɵinvalidFactory`

In v14, the partial compilation output of components have changed in a way
that prevents older versions of Angular to compile the partial declarations
correctly.
In particular, we used to emit used directives/components in separate arrays called
`components` and `directives`, and used pipes in a property called `pipes`:
```js
TestComponent.ɵcmp = i0.ɵɵngDeclareComponent({
minVersion: "12.0.0",
version: "13.3.0",
type: TestComponent,
selector: "ng-component",
ngImport: i0,
template: ``,
isInline: true,
directives: [{ type: i1.SomeDir, selector: "[some-dir]" }],
components: [{ type: i1.SomeCmp, selector: "some-cmp" }],
pipes: { 'async': i2.AsyncPipe },
});
```
In the above example, the `version` property indicates which exact compiler
version was used to compile the component, but the `minVersion` allows older
versions of the compiler/Angular linker to "link" the partial declaration to
its final AOT compilation output.
In v14, the used directives, components and pipes are now emitted together
into a single array under the `dependencies` property:
```js
TestComponent.ɵcmp = i0.ɵɵngDeclareComponent({
minVersion: "12.0.0",

This change has been made in support of standalone components, but it does mean
that older compiler versions can no longer link these partial declarations
as desirable as none of the components, directives and pipes would be included
in the AOT-compiled code.
By increasing the `minVersion` property, we hint to older compiler versions that
they are not capable of processing the partial declaration. This allows reporting
an error at compile time instead of resulting in runtime failures due to missing
components, directives and pipes.

Adds support for TypeScript 4.7. Changes include:
* Bumping the TS version as well as some Bazel dependencies to include https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/pull/3420.
* Adding a backwards-compatibility layer for calls to `updateTypeParameterDeclaration`.
* Making `LView` generic in order to make it easier to type the context based on the usage. Currently the context can be 4 different types which coupled with stricter type checking would required a lot of extra casting all over `core`.
* Fixing a bunch of miscellaneous type errors.
* Removing assertions of `ReferenceEntry.isDefinition` in a few of the language service tests. The field isn't returned by TS anymore and we weren't using it for anything.
* Resolving in error in the language service that was caused by TS attempting to parse HTML files when we try to open them. Previous TS was silently setting them as `ScriptKind.Unknown` and ignoring the errors, but now it throws. I've worked around it by setting them as `ScriptKind.JSX`.

Before standalone, everything that could appear in an NgModule's `imports`
was relevant to DI, and needed to be emitted in the `imports` of the
generated `InjectorDef` definition. With the introduction of standalone
types, NgModule `imports` can now contain components, directives, and pipes
which are standalone. Only standalone components need to be included in
the `imports` of the generated injector definition - directives and pipes
have no effect on DI. Having them present doesn't cause any errors in the
runtime (they're filtered out by the injector itself) but it does prevent
tree-shaking.
With this commit, the generation of `InjectorDef` now filters the `imports`
to exclude directives and pipes as much as possible. It's not _always_
possible because an expression in `imports` may pull in both a directive and
a `ModuleWithProviders` reference, and we have no way of referencing just
the MWP part of that expression. Therefore this is an optimization, not a
rule of `InjectorDef` compilation.
PR Close#45701
Previously, the NgModule handler would resolve the `imports` field as one
unit, producing an array of `Reference`s. With this refactoring, if
`imports` is a literal array, each individual element will be resolved
independently. This will allow filtering in the future at the element level,
since there will be a separate `ts.Expression` for each individual element.

Standalone component scopes were first implemented in the
`ComponentDecoratorHandler` itself, due to an assumption that "standalone"
allowed for a localized analysis of the component's dependencies. However,
this is not strictly true. Other compiler machinery also needs to understand
component scopes, including standalone component scopes. A good example is
the template type-checking engine, which uses a `ComponentScopeReader` to
build full metadata objects (that is, metadata that considers the entire
inheritance chain) for type-checking purposes. Therefore, the
`ComponentScopeReader` should be able to give the scope for a standalone
component.
To achieve this, a new `StandaloneComponentScopeReader` is implemented, and
the return type of `ComponentScopeReader.getScopeForComponent` is expanded
to express standalone scopes. This cleanly integrates the "standalone"
concept into the existing machinery.

Previously, the compiler would represent template dependencies of a
component in its component definition through separate fields (`directives`,

This commit refactors the compiler/runtime interface to use a single field

`directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs`, which are calculated from the `dependencies`
when the definition is evaluated.
This change is also reflected in partially compiled declarations. To ensure
compatibility with partially compiled code already on NPM, the linker
will still honor the old form of declaration (with separate fields).

This commit improves the error messages generated by the compiler when NgModule
scope analysis finds structural issues within a compilation. In particular,
errors are now shown on a node within the metadata of the NgModule which
produced the error, as opposed to the node of the erroneous declaration/import/
export. For example, if an NgModule declares `declarations: [FooCmp]` and
`FooCmp` is not annotated as a directive, component, or pipe, the error is now
shown on the reference to `FooCmp` in the `declarations` array expression.
Previously, the error would have been shown on `FooCmp` itself, with a mention
in the error text of the NgModule name.
Additional error context in some cases has been moved to related information
attached to the diagnostic, which further improves the legibility of such
errors. Error text has also been adjusted to be more succinct, since more info
about the error is now delivered through context.

In early versions of Angular, it was sometimes necessary to provide a
`moduleId` to `@Component` metadata, and the common pattern for doing this
was to set `moduleId: module.id`. This relied on the bundler to fill in a
value for `module.id`.
However, due to the superficial similarity between `Component.moduleId` and
`NgModule.id`, many users ended up setting `id: module.id` in their
NgModules. This is an anti-pattern that has a few negative effects,
including preventing the NgModule from tree-shaking properly.
This commit changes the compiler to ignore `id: module.id` in NgModules, and
instead provide a warning which suggests removing the line entirely.
PR Close#45024
Angular contains an NgModule registry, which allows a user to declare
NgModules with string ids and retrieve them via those ids, using the
`getNgModuleById` API.
Previously, we attempted to structure this registration in a clever fashion
to allow for tree-shaking of registered NgModules (that is, those with ids).
This sort of worked due to the accidental alignment of behaviors from the
different tree-shakers involved. However, this trick relies on the
generation of `.ngfactory` files and how they're specifically processed in
various bundling scenarios. We intend to remove `.ngfactory` files, hence
we can no longer rely on them in this way.
The correct solution here is to recognize that `@NgModule({id})` is
inherently declaring a global side-effect, and such classes should not
really be eligible for tree-shaking in the first place. This commit removes
all the old registration machinery, and standardizes on generating a side-
effectful call to `registerNgModuleType` for NgModules that have ids.
There is some risk here that NgModules with unnecessary `id`s may not
tree-shake as a result of this change, whereas they would have in previous
circumstances. The fix here should be to remove the `id` if it's not needed.
Specifying an `id` is a request that the NgModule be retained regardless of
any other references, in case it is later looked up by string id.

An `ng-template` with an inline template (i.e. has a structural
directive) would previously not get an `undefined` `tagName` because the
logic assumed the element would be `t.Element` or `t.Content` and read
the tag name from the `name` property. For a `t.Template`, this exists
instead on the `t.tagName`. The final result would be an `tagName` of `undefined`
for the parent `t.Template`, causing failures in the indexer downstream.
This `undefined` value is actually expected in the renderer code, even
though the type does not specify this possibility. This change updates
the type of `tagName` to be `string|null` and explicitly handles the
case where there is a structural directive on an `ng-template`. You can
see how the two are differentiated in the compliance code that was

The assertion comes from `ExtendedTemplateCheckerImpl`, which expects a well-formed configuration, yet the compiler would construct it even when errors were found. This commit skips constructing and running extended diagnostics if the configuration had errors, which should avoid triggering these assertion errors.
I'm unfortunately not able to actually test this change. The test passes even before the fix because the `ngc` binary and end-to-end tests [don't request diagnostics unless the configuration is considered valid](ed21f5c753/packages/compiler-cli/src/perform_compile.ts (L292-L293)). See [Slack](https://angular-team.slack.com/archives/C4WHZQMRA/p1642641305003800) for more details.

Extended diagnostics provide additional analysis about Angular templates by emitting warnings for specific patterns known to be error prone or cause developer confusion. Currently, there are two such diagnostics which are enabled by default:
* `invalidBananaInBox` emits a warning if a user writes a two-way binding backwards like `([foo])="bar"`, when they actually wanted `[(foo)]="bar"`.
* `nullishCoalescingNotNullable` emits a warning if a binding attempts to perform nullish coalescing (`??`) on a type which does not include `null` or `undefined`, such as `{{ foo ?? 'bar' }}` where `foo` is defined as `string` instead of `string | null`.
These diagnostics are enabled as warnings by default, but this can be configured in the `tsconfig.json` like so:
```jsonc
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"extendedDiagnostics": {
// The categories to use for specific diagnostics.
"checks": {
// Maps check name to its category.
"invalidBananaInBox": "suppress"
},
// The category to use for any diagnostics not listed in `checks` above.
"defaultCategory": "error"
}
}
}
```
Allowed categories for a diagnostic are `warning` (default), `error`, or `suppress`. `warning` emits the diagnostic but allows the compilation to succeed, `error` *will* fail the compilation, while `suppress` will ignore the diagnostic altogether.
The initial release has two diagnostics, and we are hoping to expand this longer term to add more diagnostics and provide additional insight into Angular templates to detect and surface developer mistakes *before* hours of debugging are wasted.

This validates the `tsconfig.json` options for extended template diagnostics. It verifies:
* `strictTemplates` must be enabled if `extendedDiagnostics` have any explicit configuration.
* `extendedDiagnostics.defaultCategory` must be a valid `DiagnosticCategoryLabel`.
* `extendedDiagnostics.checks` keys must all be real diagnostics.
* `extendedDiagnostics.checks` values must all be valid `DiagnosticCategoryLabel`s.
These include new error codes, each of which prints out the exact property that was the issue and what the available options are to fix them.
It does disallow the config:
```json
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"strictTemplates": false,
"extendedDiagnostics": {
"defaultCategory": "suppress"
}
}
}

Such a configuration is technically valid and could be executed, but will be rejected by this verification logic. There isn't much reason to ever do this, since users could just drop `extendedDiagnostics` altogether and get the intended effect. This is unlikely to be a significant issue for users, so it is considered invalid for now to keep the implementation simple.

The `defaultCategory` option is used for any extended template diagnostics which do not have any specific category specified for them.

This updates `TemplateContext` to include a new `makeTemplateDiagnostic()` function which automatically uses the correct diagnostic category for that check. This makes sure that each diagnostic is emitted with the correct category. It also implicitly passes some known values like `component` and `code` to make the extended template diagnostics a little simpler. Diagnostics which are suppressed are never instantiated at all, which acts as a slight performance optimization since any emitted diagnostics would be ignored anyways.
Unfortunately, diagnostics still have access to `ctx.templateTypeChecker.makeTemplateDiagnostic()` to manually create diagnostics with a different category. Both banana in box and nullish coalescing checks include tests to make sure they respect a manually configured category. This convention should hopefully give a reasonable certainty that new diagnostics will use the correct reporting function, even if that is not strictly enforced.

This moves extended template check factory invocations into the checker itself, where it can provide a more consistent API contract. Factories are called with compiler options and may return a `TemplateCheck` or `undefined` if the current options do not support that check. This allows `nullishCoalescingNotNullable` to disable itself when `strictNullChecks` is disabled without throwing errors. This gives extended template diagnostics a stronger abstraction model to define their behavior with.

In certain scenarios, the compiler may have crashed with an
`Unable to write a reference` error which would be particularly hard
to diagnose. One of the primary reasons for this failure is when the
`rootDir` option is configured---typically the case for libraries---
and a source file is imported using a relative import from an external
entry-point. This would normally report TS6059 for the invalid relative
import, but the crash prevents this error from being surfaced.
This commit refactors the reference emit logic to result in an explicit
`Failure` state with a reason as to why the failure occurred. This state
is then used to report a `FatalDiagnosticException`, preventing a hard
crash.

When a partially compiled component or directive is "linked" in JIT mode, the body
of its declaration is evaluated by the JavaScript runtime. If a class is referenced
in a query (e.g. `ViewQuery` or `ContentQuery`) but its definition is later in the
file, then the reference must be wrapped in a `forwardRef()` call.
Previously, query predicates were not wrapped correctly in partial declarations
causing the code to crash at runtime. In AOT mode, this code is never evaluated
but instead transformed as part of the build, so this bug did not become apparent
until Angular Material started running JIT mode tests on its distributable output.
This change fixes this problem by noting when queries are wrapped in `forwardRef()`
calls and ensuring that this gets passed through to partial compilation declarations
and then suitably stripped during linking.

When a safe method call such as `person?.getName()` is used, the
compiler would generate invalid code if the argument list also contained
a safe method call. For example, the following code:
```
person?.getName(config?.get('title').enabled)
```
would generate
```
let tmp;
ctx.person == null ? null : ctx.person.getName((tmp = tmp) == null ?
null : tmp.enabled)
```
Notice how the call to `config.get('title')` has completely disappeared,
with `(tmp = tmp)` having taken its place.
The issue occurred due to how the argument list would be converted
from expression AST to output AST twice. First, the outer safe method
call would first convert its arguments list. This resulted in a
temporary being allocated for `config.get('title')`, which was stored in
the internal `_resultMap`. Only after the argument list has been
converted would the outer safe method call realize that it should be
guarded by a safe access of `person`, entering the `convertSafeAccess`
procedure to convert itself. This would convert the argument list once
again, but this time the `_resultMap` would already contain the
temporary `tmp` for `config?.get('title')`. Consequently, the safe
method in the argument list would be emitted as `tmp`.
This commit fixes the issue by ensuring that nodes are only converted
once.

Previously, a build when emitted one warning and no errors would fail with a non-zero exit code. This is not what users would expect, but had not been an issue before since the compiler did not actually emit any warnings. With upcoming extended template diagnostics and other warnings, this is now a case that needs to be supported. Warnings are printed to `stderr` as before, but `ngc` now exits with code `0` and the build is considered successful.
Implemented this by adding a new `expectedExitCode` parameter to `driveDiagnostics()` which asserts against the real exit code. Most importantly, it does not **require** the the build to pass since any exit code can be given, so it is up to the test to assert this as well as many messages printed to make sure they are acceptable. This is useful for testing warnings and ensuring the build still passes.

Removes the remaining usages of dynamic require statements in the
package output. Since we declare all shipped packages as strict ESM,
we cannot use dynamic require statements anymore. This commit switches
these usages to actual `import` statements.
Note: Tsickle continues to remain an optional dependency since bundling
does not work with its UMD package output. Also tsickle is rarely used by
consumers, if at all, so bundling does not really provide any significant
value. To continue keeping tsickle optional (since it's still needed by the
`annotateForClosureCompiler` option which is also respected in ngtsc), we
pass-through a tsickle instance as a parameter to `main`. This allows us to
keep the compile functions synchronous without having to refactor the majority
of the watch compilation code, and majority of tests for ngc, ngtsc.
Consumers (like the `ngc` bin entry-point) can then load tsickle based on their
module format. e.g. tsickle can be imported through `require` to keep everything
sync, but in ESM, the dynamic import can be used beforehand to pass `tsickle` to
the `main` function. We can revisit this in the future but for now this does the
trick without exceeding the scope of this commit..

As outlined in the previous commit which enabled the `esModuleInterop`
TypeScript compiler option, we need to update all namespace imports
for `typescript` to default imports. This is needed to allow for
TypeScript to be imported at runtime from an ES module.
Similar changes are needed for modules like `semver` where the types incorrectly
suggest named exports that will not exist at runtime when imported from ESM.
This commit refactors all imports to match with the lint rule we have
configured in the previous commit. See the previous commit for more
details on why certain imports have been changed.
A special case are the imports to `@babel/core` and `@babel/types`. For
these a special interop is needed as both default imports, or named
imports break the other module format. e.g default imports would work
well for ESM, but it breaks for CJS. For CJS, the named imports would
only work, but in ESM, only the default export exist. We work around
this for now until the devmode is using ESM as well (which would be
consistent with prodmode and gives us more valuable test results). More
details on the interop can be found in the `babel_core.ts` files (two
interops are needed for both localize/or the compiler-cli).

Now that `Route.loadChildren` no longer accepts a string, there is no
need for tooling to find all string-based `loadChildren` to setup lazy
imports for them. As a result, the `listLazyRoutes` operation that

needed and is therefore removed from the compiler.

When specifying the `deps` array in the `@Injectable` decorator to
inject dependencies into the injectable's factory function, it should
be possible to use an array literal to configure how the dependency
should be resolved by the DI system.
For example, the following example is allowed:
```ts
@Injectable({
providedIn: 'root',
useFactory: a => new AppService(a),
deps: [[new Optional(), 'a']],
})
export class AppService {
constructor(a) {}
}
```
Here, the `'a'` string token should be injected as optional. However,
the AOT compiler incorrectly used the array literal itself as injection
token, resulting in a failure at runtime. Only if the token were to be
provided using `[new Optional(), new Inject('a')]` would it work
correctly.
This commit fixes the issue by using the last non-decorator in the
array literal as the token value, instead of the array literal itself.
Note that this is a loose interpretation of array literals: if a token
is omitted from the array literal then the array literal itself is used
as token, but any decorator such as `new Optional()` would still have
been applied. When there's multiple tokens in the list then only the
last one will be used as actual token, any prior tokens are silently
ignored. This behavior mirrors the JIT interpretation so is kept as is
for now, but may benefit from some stricter checking and better error
reporting in the future.

Currently the compiler has three different classes to represent a "call to something":
1. `MethodCall` - `foo.bar()`
2. `SafeMethodCall` - `foo?.bar()`.
3. `FunctionCall` - Any calls that don't fit into the first two classes. E.g. `foo.bar()()`.
There are a few problems with this approach:
1. It is inconistent with the TypeScript AST which only has one node: `CallExpression`.
2. It means that we have to maintain more code, because the various parts of the compiler need to know about three node types.
3. It doesn't allow us to easily implement some new JS features like safe calls (e.g. `foo.bar?.())`).
These changes rework the compiler so that it produces only one node: `Call`. The new node behaves similarly to the TypeScript `CallExpression` whose `receiver` can be any expression.
There was a similar situation in the output AST where we had an `InvokeMethodExpression` and `InvokeFunctionExpression`. I've combined both of them into `InvokeFunctionExpression`.

The lexer now splits encoded entity tokens out from text and attribute value tokens.
Previously encoded entities would be decoded and the decoded value would be
included as part of the text token of the surrounding text. Now the entities
have their own tokens. There are two scenarios: text and attribute values.
Previously the contents of `<div>Hello & goodbye</div>` would be a single
TEXT token. Now it will be three tokens:
```
TEXT: "Hello "
ENCODED_ENTITY: "&", "&"
TEXT: " goodbye"
```
Previously the attribute value in `<div title="Hello & goodbye">` would be
a single text token. Now it will be three tokens:
```
ATTR_VALUE_TEXT: "Hello "
ENCODED_ENTITY: "&", "&"
ATTR_VALUE_TEXT: " goodbye"

- ENCODED_ENTITY tokens have two parts: "decoded" and "encoded".
- ENCODED_ENTITY tokens are always preceded and followed by either TEXT tokens
or ATTR_VALUE_TEXT tokens, depending upon the context, even if they represent
an empty string.
The HTML parser has been modified to recombine these tokens to allow this
refactoring to have limited effect in this commit. Further refactorings
to use these new tokens will follow in subsequent commits.

could be set to inline external templates and styles (also for the
resulting `.metadata.json` files). We want to do the same for the Ivy
compilation pipeline (regardless of the compilation mode). The full
compilation definitions, and partial declarations currently already
inline resources in a way that no external requests need to be made.
Although there is one exception currently. These are the calls for
setting class metadata (for testbed overrides). This commit updates
the set class metadata calls (for both partial and full compilation)
to always inline resources. This means that libraries do not need
to start shipping external styles/templates just for the
`setClassMetadata` calls.
Note: Only doing this for partial compilation has been considered, but
it seems like it would be simpler implementation-wise to do this for
full compilation as well. Given the external resources are already
inlined (through their `ecmp` definitions), it seems acceptable (or
even more aligned) to do the same for the set class metadata calls.

The static interpreter assumed that a foreign function expression would
have to be imported from the absolute module specifier that was used for
the foreign function itself. This assumption does not hold for the
`forwardRef` foreign function resolver, as that extracts the resolved
expression from the function's argument, which is not behind the
absolute module import of the `forwardRef` function.
The prior behavior has worked for the typical usage of `forwardRef`,
when it is contained within the same source file as where the static
evaluation started. In that case, the resulting reference would
incorrectly have an absolute module guess of `@angular/core`, but the
local identifier emit strategy was capable of emitting the reference
without generating an import using the absolute module guess.
In the scenario where the static interpreter would first have to follow
a reference to a different source that contained the `forwardRef` would
the compilation fail. In that case, there is no local identifier
available such that the absolute module emitter would try to locate the
imported symbol from `@angular/core`. which fails as the symbol is not
exported from there.
This commit fixes the issue by checking whether a foreign expression
occurs in the same source file as the call expression. If it does, then
the absolute module specifier that was used to resolve the call
expression is ignored.

Source files that contain directives or components that need an inline
type constructor or inline template type-check block would always be
considered as affected in incremental rebuilds. The inline operations
cause the source file to be updated in the TypeScript program that is
created for template type-checking, which becomes the reuse program
in a subsequent incremental rebuild.
In an incremental rebuild, the source files from the new user program
are compared to those from the reuse program. The updated source files
are not the same as the original source file from the user program, so
the incremental engine would mark the file which needed inline
operations as affected. This prevents incremental reuse for these files,
causing sub-optimal rebuild performance.

The compiler flag `compileNonExportedClasses` allows the Angular compiler to
process classes which are not exported at the top level of a source file.
This is often used to allow for AOT compilation of test classes inside
`it()` test blocks, for example.
Previously, the compiler would identify exported classes by looking for an
`export` modifier on the class declaration itself. This works for the
trivial case, but fails for indirectly exported classes:
```typescript
// Component is declared unexported.
@Component({...})
class FooCmp {...}
// Indirect export of FooCmp
export {FooCmp};
```
This is not an immediate problem for most application builds, since the
default value for `compileNonExportedClasses` is `true` and therefore such
classes get compiled regardless.
However, in the Angular Language Service now, `compileNonExportedClasses` is
forcibly overridden to `false`. That's because the tsconfig used by the IDE
and Language Service is often far broader than the application build's
configuration, and pulls in test files that can contain unexported classes
not designed with AOT compilation in mind.
Therefore, the Language Service has trouble working with such structures.
In this commit, the `ReflectionHost` gains a new API for detecting whether a
class is exported. The implementation of this method now not only considers
the `export` modifier, but also scans the `ts.SourceFile` for indirect
exports like the example above. This ensures the above case will be
processed directly in the Language Service.
This new operation is cached using an expando symbol on the `ts.SourceFile`,
ensuring good performance even when scanning large source files with lots of
exports (e.g. a FESM file under `ngcc`).

This commit changes the reference emitters in the Ivy compiler to prefer
non-aliased exports if they exist. This avoids selecting "private
exports" that may not be stable, e.g. the reexports that have been added
by the View Engine compiler. Such reexports are not stable and are
therefore not suitable to be emitted into partial compilations, as the
output of partial compilations should only reference stable symbols
from upstream libraries.
An alternative solution has been considered where ViewEngine-generated
exports would gain a certain prefix, such that the Ivy compiler could
just exclude those exports (see #41443). However, that solution would
be insufficient in case a library is built using partial compilation and
while depending itself on a VE-compiled library from earlier versions of
Angular, where the magic prefix would be missing. For such libraries,
ngcc would have generated reexports using the declared name if not already
present so this change does result in choosing the correct export.
Because ngcc always generates reexports using the declared name even if
an aliased export is present, this change causes those ngcc-generated
exports to be chosen in downstream libraries using partial compilation.
This is unfortunate as it means that the declared names become
effectively public even if the library author was intentionally
exporting it using an alias. This commit does not address this problem;
it is expected that this should not result in widespread issues across
the library ecosystem.

Previously, it was not possible to block a partial-linker from trying to
process a declaration that was defined in a newer version of Angular than
that of the partial-linker. For example, if a partial-linker was published as
part of version 12.0.0, there was no way for a partially-compiled declaration
compiled via version 13.0.0 to tell the 12.0.0 linker that it would be invalid
to attempt to process it.
This commit adds a new `minVersion` property to partial-declarations, which is
interpreted as the "minimum partial-linker version" that can process this
declaration. When selecting a partial-linker for such a declaration, the known
linker version ranges are checked to find the most recent linker whose version
range has an overlap with the interpreted declaration range.
This approach allows us to set a minimum version for a declaration, which
can inform an old partial-linker that will it not be able to accurately
process the declaration.
Note that any pre-release part to versions are ignored in this selection
process.
The file-linker can be configured, via the `unknownDeclarationVersionHandling`
property of `LinkerOptions`, to handle such a situation in one of three ways:
- `error` - the version mismatch is a fatal error
- `warn` - a warning is sent to the logger but the most recent partial-linker
will attempt to process the declaration anyway.
- `ignore` - the most recent partial-linker will, silently, attempt to process
the declaration.
The default is to throw an error.

The Angular compiler has to actively keep default import statements
alive if they were only used in type-only positions, but have been
emitted as value expressions for DI purposes. A problem occurred in
incremental recompilations, where the relationship between an identifier
usage and its corresponding default import would not be considered. This
could result in the removal of the default import statement and caused

This commit fixes the issue by storing the association from an
identifier to its default import declaration on the source file itself,
instead of within the `DefaultImportTracker` instance. The
`DefaultImportTracker` instance is only valid for a single compilation,
whereas the association from an identifier to a default import
declaration is valid as long as the `ts.SourceFile` is the same

BREAKING CHANGE:
Switching default of `emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue`
which changes the default behavior and may cause some applications which
rely on the incorrect behavior to fail.
`emitDistinctChangesOnly` flag has also been deprecated and will be
removed in a future major release.
The previous implementation would fire changes `QueryList.changes.subscribe`
whenever the `QueryList` was recomputed. This resulted in an artificially
high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing
`QueryList` results in the same list. When the `QueryList` gets recomputed
is an implementation detail, and it should not be the thing that determines
how often change event should fire.
Unfortunately, fixing the behavior outright caused too many existing
applications to fail. For this reason, Angular considers this fix a
breaking fix and has introduced a flag in `@ContentChildren` and
`@ViewChildren`, that controls the behavior.
```
export class QueryCompWithStrictChangeEmitParent {
@ContentChildren('foo', {
// This option is the new default with this change.
emitDistinctChangesOnly: true,
})
foos!: QueryList<any>;
}
```
For backward compatibility before v12
`emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue` was set to `false. This change
changes the default to `true`.

Previously, injector definitions contained a `factory` property that
was used to create a new instance of the associated NgModule class.
Now this factory has been moved to its own `ɵfac` static property on the
NgModule class itself. This is inline with how directives, components and
pipes are created.
There is a small size increase to bundle sizes for each NgModule class,
because the `ɵfac` takes up a bit more space:
Before:
```js
let a = (() => {
class n {}
return n.\u0275mod = c.Cb({type: n}),
n.\u0275inj = c.Bb({factory: function(t) { return new (t || n) }, imports: [[e.a.forChild(s)], e.a]}),
n
})(),
```
After:
```js
let a = (() => {
class n {}
return n.\u0275fac = function(t) { return new (t || n) },
n.\u0275mod = c.Cb({type: n}),
n.\u0275inj = c.Bb({imports: [[r.a.forChild(s)], r.a]}),
n
})(),
```
In other words `n.\u0275fac = ` is longer than `factory: ` (by 5 characters)
and only because the tooling insists on encoding `ɵ` as `\u0275`.
This can be mitigated in a future PR by only generating the `ɵfac` property
if it is actually needed.

In Angular programs, changing a file may require other files to be
emitted as well due to implicit NgModule dependencies. For example, if
the selector of a directive is changed then all components that have
that directive in their compilation scope need to be recompiled, as the
change of selector may affect the directive matching results.
Until now, the compiler solved this problem using a single dependency
graph. The implicit NgModule dependencies were represented in this
graph, such that a changed file would correctly also cause other files
to be re-emitted. This approach is limited in a few ways:
1. The file dependency graph is used to determine whether it is safe to
reuse the analysis data of an Angular decorated class. This analysis
data is invariant to unrelated changes to the NgModule scope, but
because the single dependency graph also tracked the implicit
NgModule dependencies the compiler had to consider analysis data as
stale far more often than necessary.
2. It is typical for a change to e.g. a directive to not affect its
public API—its selector, inputs, outputs, or exportAs clause—in which
case there is no need to re-emit all declarations in scope, as their
compilation output wouldn't have changed.
This commit implements a mechanism by which the compiler is able to
determine the impact of a change by comparing it to the prior
compilation. To achieve this, a new graph is maintained that tracks all
public API information of all Angular decorated symbols. During an
incremental compilation this information is compared to the information
that was captured in the most recently succeeded compilation. This
determines the exact impact of the changes to the public API, which
is then used to determine which files need to be re-emitted.
Note that the file dependency graph remains, as it is still used to
track the dependencies of analysis data. This graph does no longer track
the implicit NgModule dependencies, which allows for better reuse of
analysis data.
These changes also fix a bug where template type-checking would fail to
incorporate changes made to a transitive base class of a
directive/component. This used to be a problem because transitive base
classes were not recorded as a transitive dependency in the file
dependency graph, such that prior type-check blocks would erroneously
be reused.
This commit also fixes an incorrectness where a change to a declaration
in NgModule `A` would not cause the declarations in NgModules that
import from NgModule `A` to be re-emitted. This was intentionally
incorrect as otherwise the performance of incremental rebuilds would
have been far worse. This is no longer a concern, as the compiler is now
able to only re-emit when actually necessary.

This is a pre-requisite for #40360. Given the following template which has a listener
that references a variable from a parent template (`name`):
```
<ng-template let-name="name">
<button (click)="hello(name)"></button>
</ng-template>
```
We generate code that looks that looks like. Note how we access `name` through `ctx`:
```js
function template(rf, ctx) {
if (rf & 1) {
const r0 = ɵɵgetCurrentView();
ɵɵelementStart(0, "button", 2);
ɵɵlistener("click", function() {
ɵɵrestoreView(r0);
const name_r0 = ctx.name; // Note the `ctx.name` access here.
const ctx_r1 = ɵɵnextContext();
return ctx_r1.log(name_r0);
});
ɵɵelementEnd();
}
}
```
This works fine at the moment, because the template context object can't be changed after creation.
The changes in #40360 allow for the object to be changed, which means that the `ctx` reference
inside the listener will be out of date, because it was bound during creation mode.
This PR aims to address the issue by accessing the context inside listeners through the saved
view reference. With the new code, the generated code from above will look as follows:
```js
function template(rf, ctx) {

If the template parse option `leadingTriviaChars` is configured to
consider whitespace as trivia, any trailing whitespace of an element
would be considered as leading trivia of the subsequent element, such
that its `start` span would start _after_ the whitespace. This means
that the start span cannot be used to mark the end of the current
element, as its trailing whitespace would then be included in its span.
Instead, the full start of the subsequent element should be used.
To harden the tests that for the Ivy parser, the test utility `parseR3`
has been adjusted to use the same configuration for `leadingTriviaChars`
as would be the case in its production counterpart `parseTemplate`. This
uncovered another bug in offset handling of the interpolation parser,
where the absolute offset was computed from the start source span
(which excludes leading trivia) whereas the interpolation expression
would include the leading trivia. As such, the absolute offset now also
uses the full start span.

Currently when analyzing the metadata of a directive, we bundle together the bindings from `host`
and the `HostBinding` and `HostListener` together. This can become a problem later on in the
compilation pipeline, because we try to evaluate the value of the binding, causing something like
`@HostBinding('class.foo') public true = 1;` to be treated the same as
`host: {'[class.foo]': 'true'}`.
While looking into the issue, I noticed another one that is closely related: we weren't treating
quoted property names correctly. E.g. `@HostBinding('class.foo') public "foo-bar" = 1;` was being
interpreted as `classProp('foo', ctx.foo - ctx.bar)` due to the same issue where property names
were being evaluated.
These changes resolve both of the issues by treating all `HostBinding` instance as if they're
reading the property from `this`. E.g. the `@HostBinding('class.foo') public true = 1;` from above
is now being treated as `host: {'[class.foo]': 'this.true'}` which further down the pipeline becomes
`classProp('foo', ctx.true)`. This doesn't have any payload size implications for existing code,
because we've always been prefixing implicit property reads with `ctx.`. If the property doesn't
have an identifier that can be read using dotted access, we convert it to a quoted one (e.g.
`classProp('foo', ctx['is-foo']))`.

Previously, if a component had an external template with a hard error, the
compiler would "forget" the link between that component and its NgModule.
Additionally, the NgModule would be marked as being in error, because the
template issue would prevent the compiler from registering the component
class as a component, so from the NgModule it would look like a declaration
of a non-directive/pipe class. As a combined result, the next incremental
step could fix the template error, but would not refresh diagnostics for the
NgModule, leading to an incrementality issue.
The various facets of this problem were fixed in prior commits. This commit

Previously, if a trait's analysis step resulted in diagnostics, the trait
would be considered "errored" and no further operations, including register,
would be performed. Effectively, this meant that the compiler would pretend
the class in question was actually undecorated.
However, this behavior is problematic for several reasons:
1. It leads to inaccurate diagnostics being reported downstream.
For example, if a component is put into the error state, for example due to
a template error, the NgModule which declares the component would produce a
diagnostic claiming that the declaration is neither a directive nor a pipe.
This happened because the compiler wouldn't register() the component trait,
so the component would not be recorded as actually being a directive.
2. It can cause incorrect behavior on incremental builds.
This bug is more complex, but the general issue is that if the compiler
fails to associate a component and its module, then incremental builds will
not correctly re-analyze the module when the component's template changes.
Failing to register the component as such is one link in the larger chain of
issues that result in these kinds of issues.
3. It lumps together diagnostics produced during analysis and resolve steps.
This is not causing issues currently as the dependency graph ensures the
right classes are re-analyzed when needed, instead of showing stale
diagnostics. However, the dependency graph was not intended to serve this
role, and could potentially be optimized in ways that would break this
functionality.
This commit removes the concept of an "errored" trait entirely from the
trait system. Instead, analyzed and resolved traits have corresponding (and
separate) diagnostics, in addition to potentially `null` analysis results.
Analysis (but not resolution) diagnostics are carried forward during
incremental build operations. Compilation (emit) is only performed when
a trait reaches the resolved state with no diagnostics.
This change is functionally different than before as the `register` step is
now performed even in the presence of analysis errors, as long as analysis
results are also produced. This fixes problem 1 above, and is part of the
larger solution to problem 2.

This commit implements partial compilation of components, together with

This commit does not yet enable accurate source maps into external
templates. This requires additional work to account for escape sequences
which is non-trivial. Inline templates that were represented using a
string or template literal are transplated into the partial declaration
output, so their source maps should be accurate. Note, however, that
the accuracy of source maps is not currently verified in tests; this is

When the `preserveWhitespaces` is not true, the template parser will
process the parsed AST nodes to remove excess whitespace. Since the

Currently when we encounter an implicit method call (e.g. `{{ foo(1) }}`) and we manage to resolve
its receiver to something within the template, we assume that the method is on the receiver itself
so we generate a type checking code to reflect it. This assumption is true in most cases, but it
breaks down if the call is on an implicit receiver and the receiver itself is being invoked. E.g.
```
<div *ngFor="let fn of functions">{{ fn(1) }}</div>
```
These changes resolve the issue by generating a regular function call if the method call's receiver
is pointing to `$implicit`.

In order to more accurately map from a node in the TCB to a template position,
we need to provide more span information in the TCB. These changes are necessary
for the Language Service to map from a TCB node back to a specific
locations in the template for actions like "find references" and
"refactor/rename". After the TS "find references" returns results,
including those in the TCB, we need to map specifically to the matching
key/value spans in the template rather than the entire source span.
This also has the benefit of producing diagnostics which align more
closely with what TypeScript produces.
The following example shows TS code and the diagnostic produced by an invalid assignment to a property:
```
let a: {age: number} = {} as any;
a.age = 'laksjdf';
^^^^^ <-- Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'.
```
A corollary to this in a template file would be [age]="'someString'". The diagnostic we currently produce for this is:
```
Type 'number' is not assignable to type 'string'.
1 <app-hello [greeting]="1"></app-hello>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
```
Notice that the underlined text includes the entire span.
If we included the keySpan for the assignment to the property,
this diagnostic underline would be more similar to the one produced by TypeScript;
that is, it would only underline “greeting”.

ngtsc will avoid emitting generated imports that would create an import
cycle in the user's program. The main way such imports can arise is when
a component would ordinarily reference its dependencies in its component
definition `directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs`. This requires adding imports,
which run the risk of creating a cycle.
When ngtsc detects that adding such an import would cause this to occur, it
instead falls back on a strategy called "remote scoping", where a side-
effectful call to `setComponentScope` in the component's NgModule file is
used to patch `directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs` onto the component. Since the
NgModule file already imports all of the component's dependencies (to
declare them in the NgModule), this approach does not risk adding a cycle.
It has several large downsides, however:
1. it breaks under `sideEffects: false` logic in bundlers including the CLI
2. it breaks tree-shaking for the given component and its dependencies
See this doc for further details: https://hackmd.io/Odw80D0pR6yfsOjg_7XCJg?view
In particular, the impact on tree-shaking was exacerbated by the naive logic
ngtsc used to employ here. When this feature was implemented, at the time of
generating the side-effectful `setComponentScope` call, the compiler did not
know which of the component's declared dependencies were actually used in
its template. This meant that unlike the generation of `directiveDefs` in
the component definition itself, `setComponentScope` calls had to list the
_entire_ compilation scope of the component's NgModule, including directives
and pipes which were not actually used in the template. This made the tree-
shaking impact much worse, since if the component's NgModule made use of any
shared NgModules (e.g. `CommonModule`), every declaration therein would
become un-treeshakable.
Today, ngtsc does have the information on which directives/pipes are
actually used in the template, but this was not being used during the remote
scoping operation. This commit modifies remote scoping to take advantage of
the extra context and only list used dependencies in `setComponentScope`
calls, which should ameliorate the tree-shaking impact somewhat.

When a class with a custom decorator is transpiled to ES5, it looks something like this:
```
var SomeClass = (function() {
function SomeClass() {...};
var SomeClass_1 = __decorate([Decorator()], SomeClass);
SomeClass = SomeClass_1;
return SomeClass;
})();
```
The problem is that if the class also has an Angular decorator that refers to the class itself
(e.g. `{provide: someToken, useClass: SomeClass}`), the generated `setClassMetadata` code will
be emitted after the IIFE, but will still refer to the intermediate `SomeClass_1` variable from
inside the IIFE. This happens, because we generate the `setClassMetadata` call directly from
the source AST which contains identifiers that TS will rename when it emits the ES5 code.
These changes resolve the issue by looking through the metadata AST and cloning any `Identifier`
that is referring to the class. Since TS doesn't have references to the clone, it won't rename
it when transpiling to ES5.

Currently expressions `$event.foo()` and `this.$event.foo()`, as well as `$any(foo)` and
`this.$any(foo)`, are treated as the same expression by the compiler, because `this` is considered
the same implicit receiver as when the receiver is omitted. This introduces the following issues:
1. Any time something called `$any` is used, it'll be stripped away, leaving only the first parameter.
2. If something called `$event` is used anywhere in a template, it'll be preserved as `$event`,
rather than being rewritten to `ctx.$event`, causing the value to undefined at runtime. This
applies to listener, property and text bindings.
These changes resolve the first issue and part of the second one by preserving anything that

Prior to this fix, incremental rebuilds could fail to type check due to
missing ambient types from auto-discovered declaration files in @types

optional `directoryExists` methods. As a result, auto-discovery of types
would not be working correctly, and this would retain into the

This commit fixes the issue by forcing the custom `ts.CompilerHost` used
for type checking to properly delegate into the original
`ts.CompilerHost`, even for optional methods. This is accomplished using
a base class `DelegatingCompilerHost` which is typed in such a way that
newly introduced `ts.CompilerHost` methods must be accounted for.

In Ivy, template type-checking has 3 modes: basic, full, and strict. The
primary difference between basic and full modes is that basic mode only
checks the top-level template, whereas full mode descends into nested
templates (embedded views like ngIfs and ngFors). Ivy applies this approach
to all of its template type-checking, including the DOM schema checks which
validate whether an element is a valid component/directive or not.
View Engine has both the basic and the full mode, with the same distinction.
However in View Engine, DOM schema checks happen for the full template even
in the basic mode.
Ivy's behavior here is technically a "fix" as it does not make sense for
some checks to apply to the full template and others only to the top-level
view. However, since g3 relies exclusively on the basic mode of checking and
developers there are used to DOM checks applying throughout their template,
this commit re-enables the nested schema checks even in basic mode only in
g3. This is done by enabling the checks only when Closure Compiler
annotations are requested.
Outside of g3, it's recommended that applications use at least the full mode
of checking (controlled by the `fullTemplateTypeCheck` flag), and ideally
the strict mode (`strictTemplates`).

Prior to this change, the template type checker would always use a
type-constructor to instantiate a directive. This type-constructor call
serves two purposes:
1. Infer any generic types for the directive instance from the inputs
that are passed in.
2. Type check the inputs that are passed into the directive's inputs.
The first purpose is only relevant when the directive actually has any
generic types and using a type-constructor for these cases inhibits
a type-check performance penalty, as a type-constructor's signature is
quite complex and needs to be generated for each directive.
This commit refactors the generated type-check blocks to only generate
a type-constructor call for directives that have generic types. Type
checking of inputs is achieved by generating individual statements for
all inputs, using assignments into the directive's fields.
Even if a type-constructor is used for type-inference of generic types
will the input checking also be achieved using the individual assignment
statements. This is done to support the rework of the language service,
which will start to extract symbol information from the type-check
blocks.
As a future optimization, it may be possible to reduce the number of
inputs passed into a type-constructor to only those inputs that
contribute the the type-inference of the generics. As this is not a
necessity at the moment this is left as follow-up work.

When using the safe navigation operator in a binding expression, a temporary
variable may be used for storing the result of a side-effectful call.
For example, the following template uses a pipe and a safe property access:
```html
<app-person-view [enabled]="enabled" [firstName]="(person$ | async)?.name"></app-person-view>
```
The result of the pipe evaluation is stored in a temporary to be able to check
whether it is present. The temporary variable needs to be declared in a separate
statement and this would also cause the full expression itself to be pulled out
into a separate statement. This would compile into the following
pseudo-code instructions:
```js
var temp = null;
var firstName = (temp = pipe('async', ctx.person$)) == null ? null : temp.name;
property('enabled', ctx.enabled)('firstName', firstName);
```
Notice that the pipe evaluation happens before evaluating the `enabled` binding,
such that the runtime's internal binding index would correspond with `enabled`,
not `firstName`. This introduces a problem when the pipe uses `WrappedValue` to
force a change to be detected, as the runtime would then mark the binding slot
corresponding with `enabled` as dirty, instead of `firstName`. This results
in the `enabled` binding to be updated, triggering setters and affecting how
`OnChanges` is called.
In the pseudo-code above, the intermediate `firstName` variable is not strictly
necessary---it only improved readability a bit---and emitting it inline with
the binding itself avoids the out-of-order execution of the pipe:
```js
var temp = null;
property('enabled', ctx.enabled)
('firstName', (temp = pipe('async', ctx.person$)) == null ? null : temp.name);
```

For attribute bindings that target a directive's input, the template
type checker is able to verify that the type of the input expression is
compatible with the directive's declaration for said input. This
checking adheres to the `strictNullChecks` flag as configured in the
TypeScript compilation, such that errors are reported for expressions
that include `undefined` or `null` in their type if the input's
declaration does not include those types.
There was a bug with this level of type-checking for directives that
also declare coercion members, where binding an expression that includes
the `undefined` type to a directive's input that does not include the
`undefined` type would not be reported as error.
This commit fixes the bug by changing the type-constructor in type-check
code to use an intersection type of regular inputs and coerced inputs,
instead of a union type. The union type would inadvertently allow
`undefined` types to be assigned into the regular inputs, as that would
still satisfy the characteristics of a union type.
As a result of this change, you may start to see build failures if
`strictTemplates` is enabled and `strictInputTypes` is not disabled.
These errors are legitimate and some action is required to achieve a
successful build:
1. Update the templates for which an error is reported and introduce the
non-null assertion operator at the end of the expression. This
removes the `undefined` type from the expression's type, making it
appear as a valid assignment.
2. Disable `strictNullInputTypes` in the compiler options. This will
implicitly add the non-null assertion operators similar to option 1,
but all templates in the compilation are affected.
3. Update the directive's input declaration to include the `undefined`
type, if the directive is not implemented in an external library.

Roll forward of #38147.
This allows Closure compiler to tree shake unused constructor calls to `NgModuleFactory`, which is otherwise considered
side-effectful. The Angular compiler generates factory objects which are exported but typically not used, as they are
only needed for compatibility with View Engine. This results in top-level constructor calls, such as:
```typescript
export const FooNgFactory = new NgModuleFactory(Foo);
```
`NgModuleFactory` has a side-effecting constructor, so this statement cannot be tree shaken, even if `FooNgFactory` is
never imported. The `NgModuleFactory` continues to reference its associated `NgModule` and prevents the module and all
its unused dependencies from being tree shaken, making Closure builds significantly larger than necessary.
The fix here is to wrap `NgModuleFactory` constructor with `noSideEffects(() => /* ... */)`, which tricks the Closure
compiler into assuming that the invoked function has no side effects. This allows it to tree-shake unused
`NgModuleFactory()` constructors when they aren't imported. Since the factory can be removed, the module can also be
removed (if nothing else references it), thus tree shaking unused dependencies as expected.
The one notable edge case is for lazy loaded modules. Internally, lazy loading is done as a side effect when the lazy
script is evaluated. For Angular, this side effect is registering the `NgModule`. In Ivy this is done by the
`NgModuleFactory` constructor, so lazy loaded modules **cannot** have their top-level `NgModuleFactory` constructor
call tree shaken. We handle this case by looking for the `id` field on `@NgModule` annotations. All lazy loaded modules
include an `id`. When this `id` is found, the `NgModuleFactory` is generated **without** with `noSideEffects()` call,
so Closure will not tree shake it and the module will lazy-load correctly.

This allows Closure compiler to tree shake unused constructor calls to `NgModuleFactory`, which is otherwise considered
side-effectful. The Angular compiler generates factory objects which are exported but typically not used, as they are
only needed for compatibility with View Engine. This results in top-level constructor calls, such as:
```typescript
export const FooNgFactory = new NgModuleFactory(Foo);
```
`NgModuleFactory` has a side-effecting constructor, so this statement cannot be tree shaken, even if `FooNgFactory` is
never imported. The `NgModuleFactory` continues to reference its associated `NgModule` and prevents the module and all
its unused dependencies from being tree shaken. This effectively prevents all components from being tree shaken, making
Closure builds significantly larger than they should be.
The fix here is to wrap `NgModuleFactory` constructor with `noSideEffects(() => /* ... */)`, which tricks the Closure
compiler into assuming that the invoked function has no side effects. This allows it to tree-shake unused
`NgModuleFactory()` constructors when they aren't imported. Since the factory can be removed, the module can also be
removed (if nothing else references it), thus tree shaking unused components as expected.

Large strings constants are now wrapped in a function which is called whenever used. This works around a unique
limitation of Closure, where it will **always** inline string literals at **every** usage, regardless of how large the
string literal is or how many times it is used.The workaround is to use a function rather than a string literal.
Closure has differently inlining semantics for functions, where it will check the length of the function and the number
of times it is used before choosing to inline it. By using a function, `ngtsc` makes Closure more conservative about
inlining large strings, and avoids blowing up the bundle size.This optimization is only used if the constant is a large
string. A wrapping function is not included for other use cases, since it would just increase the bundle size and add
unnecessary runtime performance overhead.

When the `NgIf` directive is used in a template, its context variables
can be used to capture the bound value. This is sometimes used in
complex expressions, where the resulting value is captured in a
context variable. There's two syntax forms available:
1. Binding to `NgIfContext.ngIf` using the `as` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="enabled && user as u">{{u.name}}</span>
```
2. Binding to `NgIfContext.$implicit` using the `let` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="enabled && user; let u">{{u.name}}</span>
```
Because of the semantics of `ngIf`, it is known that the captured
context variable is truthy, however the template type checker
would not consider them as such and still report errors when
`strict` is enabled.
This commit updates `NgIf`'s context guard to make the types of the
context variables truthy, avoiding the issue.

Prior to this commit, duplicated styles defined in multiple components in the same file were not
shared between components, thus causing extra payload size. This commit updates compiler logic to
use `ConstantPool` for the styles (while generating the `styles` array on component def), which
enables styles sharing when needed (when duplicates styles are present).

This commit updates synthetic host property and listener instruction names to better align with other instructions.
The `ɵɵupdateSyntheticHostBinding` instruction was renamed to `ɵɵsyntheticHostProperty` (to match the `ɵɵhostProperty`
instruction name) and `ɵɵcomponentHostSyntheticListener` was renamed to `ɵɵsyntheticHostListener` since this
instruction is generated for both Components and Directives (so 'component' is removed from the name).

Fixes the following issues related to how we validate properties during JIT:
- The invalid property warning was printing `null` as the node name
for `ng-content`. The problem is that when generating a template from
`ng-content` we weren't capturing the node name.
- We weren't running property validation on `ng-container` at all.
This used to be supported on ViewEngine and seems like an oversight.
In the process of making these changes, I found and cleaned up a
few places where we were passing in `LView` unnecessarily.

The `fs.relative()` method assumed that the file-system is a single tree,
which is not the case in Windows, where you can have multiple drives,
e.g. `C:`, `D:` etc.
This commit changes `fs.relative()` so that it no longer forces the result
to be a `PathSegment` and then flows that refactoring through the rest of
the compiler-cli (and ngcc). The main difference is that now, in some cases,
we needed to check whether the result is "rooted", i.e an `AbsoluteFsPath`,
rather than a `PathSegment`, before using it.

Currently when the `plural` or `select` keywords in an ICU contain trailing spaces (e.g. `{count, select , ...}`), these spaces are also included into the key names in ICU vars (e.g. "VAR_SELECT "). These trailing spaces are not desirable, since they will later be converted into `_` symbols while normalizing placeholder names, thus causing mismatches at runtime (i.e. placeholder will not be replaced with the correct value). This commit updates the code to trim these spaces while generating an object with placeholders, to make sure the runtime logic can replace these placeholders with the right values.

During AOT compilation, the value of some expressions need to be known at
compile time. The compiler has the ability to statically evaluate expressions
the best it can, but there can be occurrences when an expression cannot be
evaluated statically. For instance, the evaluation could depend on a dynamic
value or syntax is used that the compiler does not understand. Alternatively,
it is possible that an expression could be statically evaluated but the
resulting value would be of an incorrect type.
In these situations, it would be helpful if the compiler could explain why it
is unable to evaluate an expression. To this extend, the static interpreter
in Ivy keeps track of a trail of `DynamicValue`s which follow the path of nodes
that were considered all the way to the node that causes an expression to be
considered dynamic. Up until this commit, this rich trail of information was
not surfaced to a developer so the compiler was of little help to explain
why static evaluation failed, resulting in situations that are hard to debug
and resolve.
This commit adds much more insight to the diagnostic that is produced for static
evaluation errors. For dynamic values, the trail of `DynamicValue` instances
is presented to the user in a meaningful way. If a value is available but not
of the correct type, the type of the resolved value is shown.

Commit 4213e8d5 introduced shim reference tagging into the compiler, and
changed how the `TypeCheckProgramHost` worked under the hood during the
creation of a template type-checking program. This work enabled a more
incremental flow for template type-checking, but unintentionally introduced
several regressions in performance, caused by poor incrementality during
`ts.Program` creation.
1. The `TypeCheckProgramHost` was made to rely on the `ts.CompilerHost` to
retrieve instances of `ts.SourceFile`s from the original program. If the
host does not return the original instance of such files, but instead
creates new instances, this has two negative effects: it incurs
additional parsing time, and it interferes with TypeScript's ability to
reuse information about such files.
2. During the incremental creation of a `ts.Program`, TypeScript compares
the `referencedFiles` of `ts.SourceFile` instances from the old program
with those in the new program. If these arrays differ, TypeScript cannot
fully reuse the old program. The implementation of reference tagging
introduced in 4213e8d5 restores the original `referencedFiles` array
after a `ts.Program` is created, which means that future incremental
operations involving that program will always fail this comparison,
effectively limiting the incrementality TypeScript can achieve.
Problem 1 exacerbates problem 2: if a new `ts.SourceFile` is created by the
host after shim generation has been disabled, it will have an untagged
`referencedFiles` array even if the original file's `referencedFiles` was
not restored, triggering problem 2 when creating the template type-checking
program.
To fix these issues, `referencedFiles` arrays are now restored on the old
`ts.Program` prior to the creation of a new incremental program. This allows
TypeScript to get the most out of reusing the old program's data.
Additionally, the `TypeCheckProgramHost` now uses the original `ts.Program`
to retrieve original instances of `ts.SourceFile`s where possible,
preventing issues when a host would otherwise return fresh instances.
Together, these fixes ensure that program reuse is as incremental as
possible, and tests have been added to verify this for certain scenarios.
An optimization was further added to prevent the creation of a type-checking
`ts.Program` in the first place if no type-checking is necessary.

We recently added a transformer to NGC that is responsible for downleveling Angular
decorators and constructor parameter types. The primary goal was to mitigate a
TypeScript limitation/issue that surfaces in Angular projects due to the heavy
reliance on type metadata being captured for DI. Additionally this is a pre-requisite
of making `tsickle` optional in the Angular bazel toolchain.
See: 401ef71ae5 for more context on this.
Another (less important) goal was to make sure that the CLI can re-use
this transformer for its JIT mode compilation. The CLI (as outlined in
the commit mentioned above), already has a transformer for downleveling
constructor parameters. We want to avoid this duplication and exported
the transform through the tooling-private compiler entry-point.
Early experiments in using this transformer over the current one, highlighted
that in JIT, class decorators cannot be downleveled. Angular relies on those
to be invoked immediately for JIT (so that factories etc. are generated upon loading)
The transformer we exposed, always downlevels such class decorators
though, so that would break CLI's JIT mode. We can address the CLI's
needs by adding another flag to skip class decorators. This will allow
us to continue with the goal of de-duplication.

Previously, when an entry-point was ignored via an ngcc config, ngcc
would scan sub-directories for sub-entry-points, but would not use the
correct `packagePath`. For example, if `@angular/common` was ignored, it
would look at `@angular/common/http` but incorrectly use
`.../@angular/common/http` as the `packagePath` (instead of
`.../@angular/common`). As a result, it would not retrieve the correct
ngcc config for the actual package.
This commit fixes it by ensuring the correct `packagePath` is used, even
if the primary entry-point corresponding to that path is ignored. In
order to do this, a new return value for `getEntryPointInfo()` is added:
`IGNORED_ENTRY_POINT`. This is used to differentiate between directories
that correspond to no or an incompatible entry-point and those that
correspond to an entry-point that could otherwise be valid but is
explicitly ignored. Consumers of `getEntryPointInfo()` can then use this
info to discard ignored entry-points, but still use the correct
`packagePath` when scanning their sub-directories for secondary
entry-points.

Currently Angular internally already handles `InjectionToken` as
predicates for queries. This commit exposes this as public API as
developers already relied on this functionality but currently use
workarounds to satisfy the type constraints (e.g. `as any`).
We intend to make this public as it's low-effort to support, and
it's a significant key part for the use of light-weight tokens as
described in the upcoming guide: https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36144.
In concrete, applications might use injection tokens over classes
for both optional DI and queries, because otherwise such references
cause classes to be always retained. This was also an issue in View
Engine, but now with Ivy, this pattern became worse, as factories are
directly attached to retained classes (ultimately ending up in the
production bundle, while being unused).
More details in the light-weight token guide and in: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/16866.

In v7 of Angular we removed `tsickle` from the default `ngc` pipeline.
This had the negative potential of breaking ES2015 output and SSR due
to a limitation in TypeScript.
TypeScript by default preserves type information for decorated constructor
parameters when `emitDecoratorMetadata` is enabled. For example,
consider this snippet below:
```
@Directive()
export class MyDirective {
constructor(button: MyButton) {}
}
export class MyButton {}
```
TypeScript would generate metadata for the `MyDirective` class it has
a decorator applied. This metadata would be needed in JIT mode, or
for libraries that provide `MyDirective` through NPM. The metadata would
look as followed:
```
let MyDirective = class MyDir {}
MyDirective = __decorate([
Directive(),
__metadata("design:paramtypes", [MyButton]),
], MyDirective);
let MyButton = class MyButton {}
```
Notice that TypeScript generated calls to `__decorate` and
`__metadata`. These calls are needed so that the Angular compiler
is able to determine whether `MyDirective` is actually an directive,
and what types are needed for dependency injection.
The limitation surfaces in this concrete example because `MyButton`
is declared after the `__metadata(..)` call, while `__metadata`
actually directly references `MyButton`. This is illegal though because
`MyButton` has not been declared at this point. This is due to the
so-called temporal dead zone in JavaScript. Errors like followed will
be reported at runtime when such file/code evaluates:
```
Uncaught ReferenceError: Cannot access 'MyButton' before initialization
```
As noted, this is a TypeScript limitation because ideally TypeScript
shouldn't evaluate `__metadata`/reference `MyButton` immediately.
Instead, it should defer the reference until `MyButton` is actually
declared. This limitation will not be fixed by the TypeScript team
though because it's a limitation as per current design and they will
only revisit this once the tc39 decorator proposal is finalized
(currently stage-2 at time of writing).
Given this wontfix on the TypeScript side, and our heavy reliance on
this metadata in libraries (and for JIT mode), we intend to fix this
from within the Angular compiler by downleveling decorators to static
properties that don't need to evaluate directly. For example:
```
MyDirective.ctorParameters = () => [MyButton];
```
With this snippet above, `MyButton` is not referenced directly. Only
lazily when the Angular runtime needs it. This mitigates the temporal
dead zone issue caused by a limitation in TypeScript's decorator
metadata output. See: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/27519.
In the past (as noted; before version 7), the Angular compiler by
default used tsickle that already performed this transformation. We
moved the transformation to the CLI for JIT and `ng-packager`, but now
we realize that we can move this all to a single place in the compiler
so that standalone ngc consumers can benefit too, and that we can
disable tsickle in our Bazel `ngc-wrapped` pipeline (that currently
still relies on tsickle to perform this decorator processing).
This transformation also has another positive side-effect of making
Angular application/library code more compatible with server-side
rendering. In principle, TypeScript would also preserve type information
for decorated class members (similar to how it did that for constructor
parameters) at runtime. This becomes an issue when your application
relies on native DOM globals for decorated class member types. e.g.
```
@Input() panelElement: HTMLElement;
```
Your application code would then reference `HTMLElement` directly
whenever the source file is loaded in NodeJS for SSR. `HTMLElement`
does not exist on the server though, so that will become an invalid
reference. One could work around this by providing global mocks for
these DOM symbols, but that doesn't match up with other places where
dependency injection is used for mocking DOM/browser specific symbols.
More context in this issue: #30586. The TL;DR here is that the Angular
compiler does not care about types for these class members, so it won't
ever reference `HTMLElement` at runtime.

When the compiler encounters a function call within an NgModule imports
section, it attempts to resolve it to an NgModule-annotated class by
looking at the function body and evaluating the statements there. This
evaluation can only understand simple functions which have a single
return statement as their body. If the function the user writes is more
complex than that, the compiler won't be able to understand it and
previously the PartialEvaluator would return a "DynamicValue" for
that import.
With this change, in the event the function body resolution fails the
PartialEvaluator will now attempt to use its foreign function resolvers to
determine the correct result from the function's type signtaure instead. If
the function is annotated with a correct ModuleWithProviders type, the
compiler will be able to understand the import without static analysis of
the function body.
