16.0.0-next.3 (2023-03-16)

Breaking Changes

core

• The APP_ID token value is no longer randomly generated. If you are bootstrapping multiple application on the same page you will need to set to provide the APP_ID yourself.

  bootstrapApplication(ComponentA, {
    providers: [
     { provide: APP_ID, useValue: 'app-a' },
     // ... other providers ...
    ]
  });

router

• ComponentFactoryResolver has been removed from Router APIs.
  Component factories are not required to create an instance of a component
  dynamically. Passing a factory resolver via resolver argument is no longer needed
  and code can instead use ViewContainerRef.createComponent without the
  factory resolver.

Deprecations

core

• EnvironmentInjector.runInContext is now deprecated, with
  runInInjectionContext functioning as a direct replacement:

  // Previous method version (deprecated):
  envInjector.runInContext(fn);
  // New standalone function:
  runInInjectionContext(envInjector, fn);

platform-browser

• BrowserModule.withServerTransition has been deprecated. APP_ID should be used instead to set the application ID.
  NB: Unless, you render multiple Angular applications on the same page, setting an application ID is not necessary.

  Before:

  imports: [
    BrowserModule.withServerTransition({ appId: 'serverApp' }),
    ...
  ]

  After:

  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    { provide: APP_ID, useValue: 'serverApp' },
    ...
  ],
