An inline type-check block is required when a reference to a component class
cannot be emitted from an ngtypecheck shim file, but the logic to detect this
situation did not consider the configured `rootDir`. When a `rootDir` is
configured the reference emitter does not allow generating an import outside
this directory, which meant that a shim file wouldn't be able to reference
the component class. Consequently, type-check block generation would fail
with a fatal error that is unaccounted for, as gathering diagnostics should
be non-fallible.
This commit fixes the problem by leveraging the existing `canReferenceType`
logic of the type-checking `Environment`, instead of the rudimentary check
whether the class is exported as top-level symbol (`checkIfClassIsExported`).
Instead, `canReferenceType` pre-flights the generation of an import using the
`ReferenceEmitter` to tell exactly whether it will succeed or not; thus taking
into account the `rootDirs` constraint as well.

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.

When an external template is read, adds the template file to to the project which contains.
This is necessary to keep the projects open when navigating away from HTML files.
Since a `tsconfig` cannot express including non-TS files,
we need another way to indicate the template files are considered part of the project.
Note that this does not ensure that the project in question _directly_ contains the component
file. That is, the project might just include the component file through the program rather
than directly in the `include` glob of the `tsconfig`. This distinction is somewhat important
because the TypeScript language service/server prefers projects which _directly_ contain the TS
file (see `projectContainsInfoDirectly` in the TS codebase). What this means it that there can
possibly be a different project used between the TS and HTML files.
For example, in Nx projects, the referenced configs are `tsconfig.app.json` and
`tsconfig.editor.json`. `tsconfig.app.json` comes first in the base `tsconfig.json` and
contains the entry point of the app. `tsconfig.editor.json` contains the `**.ts` glob of all TS
files. This means that `tsconfig.editor.json` will be preferred by the TS server for TS files
but the `tsconfig.app.json` will be used for HTML files since it comes first and we cannot
effectively express `projectContainsInfoDirectly` for HTML files.
We could consider also updating the language server implementation to attempt
to select the project to use for the template file based on which project
contains its component file directly, using either the internal `project.projectContainsInfoDirectly`
or as a workaround, check `project.isRoot(componentTsFile)`.
Finally, keeping the projects open is hugely important in the solution style config case like
Nx. When a TS file is opened, TypeScript will only retain `tsconfig.editor.json` and not
`tsconfig.app.json`. However, if our extension does not also know to select
`tsconfig.editor.json`, it will automatically select `tsconfig.app.json` since it is defined
first in the `tsconfig.json` file. So we need to teach TS server that we are (1) interested in
keeping projects open when there is an HTML file open and (2) optionally attempt to do this
_only_ for projects that we know the TS language service will prioritize in TS files (i.e.,
attempt to only keep `tsconfig.editor.json` open and allow `tsconfig.app.json` to close)
and prioritize that project for all requests.

In PR #45405, the Angular Package Format (APF) was updated so that
secondary entry-points (such as `@angular/common/http`) do not have
their own `package.json` file, as they used to. Instead, the paths to
their various formats and types are exposed via the primary
`package.json` file's `exports` property. As an example, see the v13
[@angular/common/http/package.json][1] and compare it with the v14
[@angular/common/package.json > exports][2].
Previously, `ngcc` was not able to analyze such v14+ entry-points and
would instead error as it considered such entry-points missing.
This commit addresses the issue by detecting this situation and
synthesizing a `package.json` file for the secondary entry-points based
on the `exports` property of the primary `package.json` file. This data
is only used by `ngcc` in order to determine that the entry-point does
not need further processing, since it is already in Ivy format.

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.

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",
version: "13.3.0",
type: TestComponent,
selector: "ng-component",
ngImport: i0,
template: ``,
isInline: true,
dependencies: [
{ kind: "directive", type: i1.SomeDir, selector: "[some-dir]" },
{ kind: "component", type: i1.SomeCmp, selector: "some-cmp" },
{ kind: "pipe", type: i2.AsyncPipe },
],
});
```
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.

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.
