v3.0.0-alpha+1

3.0.0-alpha+1

New features

• We now use the formal <T> generic type syntax for methods, not /*<T>*/.

• Re-enabled strong-mode analysis within the project, and fixed some errors.

Breaking changes

• Removed viewBindings from Component. This has been interchangeable with
  viewProviders for a while now.

  BEFORE: dart @Component(viewBindings: const [])

  AFTER: dart @Component(viewProviders: const [])

• Removed EventManager from the public API. Code generation is now closer to
  document.addEventListener and having this interception layer would not
  allow further optimizations.

• Removed IterableDifferFactory and KeyValueDifferFactory from the public
  API. We have planned compiler optimizations that will no longer allow
  overriding our diffing implementations. Looking into alternatives before a
  final 3.0.0 release that are lower cost.

• ASYNC_VALIDATORS can no longer return a Stream instance, only Future.

• The experimental NgTestBed was removed. Use package:angular_test now.

• By default, the ExceptionHandler is a BrowserExceptionHandler, which
  prints exceptions to the console. If you don't want this behavior (i.e.
  releasing to production), make sure to override it.

Bug fixes

• When setting up a new NgControl, valueAccessor no longer can throw an NPE
