Pure pipes as well as arrays and maps are
implemented via proxy functions. This is
faster than the previous implementation
and also generates less code.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- pipes now take a variable number of arguments, and not an array that contains all arguments.
Update the version of zone.js to @0.6.12 that contains the new FakeAsyncTestZoneSpec.
The new fakeAsync zone handles errors better and clearPendingTimers() is no longer required to be called after handling an error and is deprecated.
The fakeAsync test zone will now throw an error if an XHR is attemtped within the test since that cannot be controlled synchronously in the test(Need to be mocked out with a service implementation that doesn't involve XHRs).
This commit also allows fakeAsync to wrap inject to make it consistent with async test zone.
BREAKING CHANGE:
inject can no longer wrap fakeAsync while fakeAsync can wrap inject. So the order in existing tests with inject and fakeAsync has to be switched as follows:
Before:
```
inject([...], fakeAsync((...) => {...}))
```
After:
```
fakeAsync(inject([...], (...) => {...}))
```
Closes#8142
This changes Angular so that it can be used without reflection (assuming a codegen for injectors).
BREAKIKNG CHANGE:
- Drops `APP_COMPONENT` provider. Instead, inject
`ApplicationRef` and read its `componentTypes` property.
- long form bootstrap has changed into the following:
```
var platform = createPlatform(ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate(BROWSER_PROVIDERS));
var appInjector =
ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate([BROWSER_APP_PROVIDERS, appProviders], platform.injector);
coreLoadAndBootstrap(appInjector, MyApp);
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Injector was renamed into `ReflectiveInjector`,
as `Injector` is only an abstract class with one method on it
- `Injector.getOptional()` was changed into `Injector.get(token, notFoundValue)`
to make implementing injectors simpler
- `ViewContainerRef.createComponent` now takes an `Injector`
instead of `ResolvedProviders`. If a reflective injector
should be used, create one before calling this method.
(e.g. via `ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate(…)`.
This adds the feature for `@ViewChild`/`@ViewChildren`/`@ContentChild`/`@ContentChildren` to define what to read from the queried element.
E.g. `@ViewChild(`someVar`, read: ViewContainerRef)` will locate the element with a variable `someVar` on it and return a `ViewContainerRef` for it.
Background: With this change, Angular knows exactly at which elements there will be `ViewConainerRef`s as the user has to ask explicitly of them. This simplifies codegen and will make converting Angular templates into server side templates simpler as well.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoLocation` has been removed. Use `@ViewChild(‘myVar’, read: ViewContainerRef)` to get hold of a `ViewContainerRef` at an element with variable `myVar`.
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToLocation` now takes a `ViewContainerRef` instead of an `ElementRef`.
- `AppViewManager` is renamed into `ViewUtils` and is a mere private utility service.
