### BREAKING CHANGES

* Platform pipes can only contain types and arrays of types,
  but no bindings any more.
* When using transformers, platform pipes need to be specified explicitly
  in the pubspec.yaml via the new config option
  `platform_pipes`.
* `Compiler.compileInHost` now returns a `HostViewFactoryRef`
* Component view is not yet created when component constructor is called.
  -> use `onInit` lifecycle callback to access the view of a component
* `ViewRef#setLocal` has been moved to new type `EmbeddedViewRef`
* `internalView` is gone, use `EmbeddedViewRef.rootNodes` to access
  the root nodes of an embedded view
* `renderer.setElementProperty`, `..setElementStyle`, `..setElementAttribute` now
  take a native element instead of an ElementRef
* `Renderer` interface now operates on plain native nodes,
  instead of `RenderElementRef`s or `RenderViewRef`s

After
Now, Angular runs in the dev mode by default, and you can enable the prod mode by calling enableProdMode.

# 2.0.0-alpha.54 (2015-12-15)


### Bug Fixes

* **bundles:** don't include RxJS in System.register bundles ([77b7cae](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/77b7cae))

* **docs,benchmarks:** remove invalid </input> closing tags ([5b63b67](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/5b63b67))


### BREAKING CHANGES

* System.register testing bundle was renamed:
`testing.js` -> `testing.dev.js`

* UMD bundles were renamed:
* `angular2.umd.js` -> `angular2-all.umd.js`
* `angular2-testing.umd.js` -> `angular2-all-testing.umd.js`

* RxJS used to be bundled with Angular 2 code and this is not the case
any more. RxJS needs to be loaded explicitly.

* Previously `angular2.js`, `angular2.min.js` and `angular2.dev.js` bundles
would have zone.js and reflect-metadata pre-appended. New bundles don't
contain zone.js nor reflect-metadata - those external dependencies can
be easily loaded into a browser using `angular2-polyfills.js`

* `ngUpgrade` related symbols are no longer part of the `angular2.js`
bundle. `ngUpgrade` has a dedicated `upgrade.js` bundle now.

* The following symbols are not exported from angular2/angular2 any more:
`UrlResolver`, `AppRootUrl`, `getUrlScheme`, `DEFAULT_PACKAGE_URL_PROVIDER`.

* **testing:** export useful properties from componentFixture ([e9f873a](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/e9f873a))
* **typings:** import global-es6.d.ts in core ([22e9590](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/22e9590))


### BREAKING CHANGES

* `<whatever />` used to be expanded to `<whatever></whatever>`.
The parser now follows the HTML5 spec more closely.
Only void and foreign elements can be self closed.

* End tags used to be tolerated for void elements with no content.
They are no more allowed so that we more closely follow the HTML5 spec.

* Before
import * as ng from 'angular2';
After
import * as core from 'angular2/core';

### BREAKING CHANGES

* previously http would only error on network errors to match the fetch
specification. Now status codes less than 200 and greater than 299 will
cause Http's Observable to error.

* Remove if statement support from actions.

* A few private helpers (e.g., platformCommon or applicationCommon) were removed or replaced with other helpers. Look at PLATFORM_COMMON_PROVIDERS, APPLICATION_COMMON_PROVIDERS, BROWSER_PROVIDERS, BROWSER_APP_PROVIDERS to see if they export the providers you need.

* AMBIENT_DIRECTIVES -> PLATFORM_DIRECTIVES
AMBIENT_PIPES -> PLATFORM_PIPES

* Previously, the controlsErrors getter of ControlGroup and ControlArray returned the errors of their direct children. This was confusing because the result did not include the errors of nested children (ControlGroup -> ControlGroup -> Control). Making controlsErrors to include such errors would require inventing some custom serialization format, which applications would have to understand.
Since controlsErrors was just a convenience method, and it was causing confusing, we are removing it. If you want to get the errors of the whole form serialized into a single object, you can manually traverse the form and accumulate the errors. This way you have more control over how the errors are serialized.

* A few private helpers (e.g., platformCommon or applicationCommon) were removed or replaced with other helpers. Look at PLATFORM_COMMON_PROVIDERS, APPLICATION_COMMON_PROVIDERS, BROWSER_PROVIDERS, BROWSER_APP_PROVIDERS to see if they export the providers you need.

* errors format has changed from validators. Now errors from
a control or an array's children are prefixed with 'controls' while errors
from the object itself are left at the root level.
Example:
Given a Control group as follows:
var group = new ControlGroup({
  login: new Control("", required),
  password: new Control("", required),
  passwordConfirm: new Control("", required)
});
Before:
group.errors
{
  login: {required: true},
  password: {required: true},
  passwordConfirm: {required: true},
}
After:
group.errors
{
  controls: {
    login: {required: true},
    password: {required: true},
    passwordConfirm: {required: true},
  }
}

* Before:
`1 + 1 | pipe:a | pipe:b` was parsed as `(1 + 1) | pipe:(a | pipe:b)`
After:
`1 + 1 | pipe:a | pipe:b` is parsed as `((1 + 1) | pipe:a) | pipe:b`

* S:
- deprecates these methods in NgZone: overrideOnTurnStart, overrideOnTurnDone, overrideOnEventDone, overrideOnErrorHandler
- introduces new API in NgZone that may shadow other API used by existing applications.

* S:
- you can no longer use a #foo or a var-foo to apply directive [foo], although
  it didn't work properly anyway.
This commit is fixing breakage caused by the switch to pre-compiler (exact SHA
unknown).

* Before:
ControlGroup.errors and ControlArray.errors returned a reduced value of their children controls' errors.
After:
ControlGroup.errors and ControlArray.errors return the errors of the group and array.
And ControlGroup.controlsErrors and ControlArray.controlsErrors return the reduce value of their children controls' errors.
