Major changes:
- make API more reusable
- format output nicely
- only force gc if needed
Regarding forcing gc:
Forcing gc can change script execution time.
We now don't force gc at first and ignore results where gc happens during script execution.
When we ignored too many results, we switch to forcing gc.
Closes#339
- use performance log of chromedriver / appium to get timeline data
for calculating metrics for benchmarks
- change all benchmarks to be made of a standalone application
and a protractor test that collectes timeline data
- fix and simplify benchmarks
- add dart2js to build
- remove benchpress
Closes#330
simplify:
- use same html file for dart and JS
- build benchmarks automatically when doing `gulp build`
- centralize configuration
modularize:
- move all build tasks into separate node.js modules under
`tools/build`.
changes:
- the `build` folder is now the `dist` folder
Closes#284
This used to be valid code:
```
class Foo {
constructor() {
this.bar = ‘string’;
}
}
```
This will now fail since ‘bar’ is not explicitly
defined as a field. We now have to write:
```
class Foo {
bar:string; // << REQUIRED
constructor() {
this.bar = ‘string’;
}
}
```
Supports:
- binds text nodes, element properties and directive properties
- locates decorator, component and template directives.
- inline templates of components
The compiler is built using a pipeline design,
see core/src/compiler/pipeline package.
Integration tests to show how the compiler, change_detection and DI work
together:
core/test/compiler/integration_spec.js
For Karma, the source mapa are inlined inside each source file.
For `build/*` output, separate `*.map` file is created.
This changes the API of `tools/transpiler/index.js`. I believe this API
is only used in `gulp-traceur.js` and `karma-traceur-preprocessor.js`.
Instead of returning the transpiled string, `compile()` returns a result
object such as:
```js
{
js: ‘transpiled code’,
sourceMap: null || {}
}
```
