The static `ɵprov` field emitted on `@Injectable()` classes uses `ɵɵInjectableDeclaration<T>`.
When a subclass extends a generic `@Injectable()` base class with contravariant parameters
(such as callback/transformer methods depending on generic type parameters), TypeScript's
static side inheritance check (`typeof Sub extends typeof Super`) fails with `TS2417` because
`ɵɵInjectableDeclaration<Sub>` is not assignable to `ɵɵInjectableDeclaration<Super<any>>`.
Using `any` (`o.DYNAMIC_TYPE`) in `createInjectableType` avoids strict variance checks on
static inheritance for internal Ivy definitions and aligns with other Ivy declaration types.
Implement support for `FormUiComponent`s in both Reactive and Template-driven
forms. This allows components that use the new signal-based form control
architecture to be used seamlessly within existing Angular form paradigms.
Key changes:
- Integrated `ɵngControlCreate` and `ɵngControlUpdate` lifecycle hooks into
`NgModel`, `FormControlDirective`, and `FormControlName`.
- Implemented branching logic to choose between the traditional `ControlValueAccessor` (CVA) path and the new FVC path based on the host element's capabilities.
- Added comprehensive unit tests for FVC integration in both Reactive (`reactive_fvc.spec.ts`) and Template-driven (`template_fvc.spec.ts`) forms, covering:
- Value synchronization (model -> view and view -> model).
- Status synchronization (touched, dirty, valid, invalid, pending, required).
- Error propagation and `parseErrors` support.
- Fallback behavior to native DOM properties (disabled, required) when FVC inputs are missing.
- Graceful fallback to CVA when no FVC pattern is detected.
- Refined `NgModel` to correctly handle `required` validation via its existing `RequiredValidator` directive while supporting FVC for other properties.
Update `NgControl` to support binding to custom controls via the new `ngControlCreate` and
`ngControlUpdate` lifecycle hooks. This will allow Reactive and Template-driven forms to integrate
with components that use the new `FormValueControl` (FVC) binding convention.
Key changes:
- Implement synchronization of control state between `FormControl` and custom controls.
- Add support for `parseErrors` signals from custom controls, integrating them into the Reactive
Forms validation loop via a dynamic validator.
- Convert Reactive Forms errors into `ReactiveValidationError` objects for consumption by custom
controls.
- Update `NgModel`, `FormControlDirective`, and `FormControlName` to provide necessary dependencies
(`Injector`, `Renderer2`) to `NgControl`.
- Rename `setUpControl` to `setUpControlValueAccessor` to clarify its role in the traditional
CVA path.
Delay the selection of a CVA until after the `ɵɵcontrol` instruction has a chance to execute.
This is necessary to delay the error that would be thrown for a missing CVA until after we have a
chance to recognize we're actually on an FVC/FCC.
If `FormsModule` or `ReactiveFormsModule` is present in the scope of a
template, plain `<input>` and other form elements will get default CVA
directives added. This commit adds an `ngNoCva` attribute as a negative
selector for those directives, so `<input ngNoCva>` elements will not have
them matched.
The `FormArrayDirective` will allow to have a `FormArray` as a top-level form object.
* `NgControlStatusGroup` directive will be applied to the `FormArrayDirective`
* `NgForm` will still create a `FormGroup`
Fixes angular#30264
BREAKING CHANGE: This new directive will conflict with existing FormArray directives or formArray inputs on the same element.

Enables users to add an array of FormControls to a FormArray using its existing .push() method,
instead of pushing each new FormControl one by one triggering events along the way.

This change also decorelate the `reset` type argument from `TValue` by adding a 3rd generic parameter to `AbstractControl`.
This improves the typings overall.
PR Close#55860
This aligns with how angular/components marks their hidden APIs.
`@nodoc` has been broken since the switch to adev, this change should
properly hide the APIs again.
PR Close#61194
Adds the `markAllAsDirty` method to the `AbstractControl` class. This method will mark the control and all its
descendants as dirty.
I pretty much just duplicated the behaviour and tests of `markAllAsTouched`.

Instead of relying on Microsoft's API extractor for `d.ts` bundling,
we are switching to Rollup-based `.d.ts` bundling.
This allows us to support code spliting, even for `.d.ts` files,
allowing for relative imports to be used between entry-points, without
ending up duplicating `.d.ts` definitions in two files. This would otherwise cause
problems with assignability of types.
It also nicely integrates into our existing rollup configuration, and
overall simplifies the `ng_package` rule even further!
Notably `tsup` also uses this rollup plugin, and it seems to work well.
Keep in mind that Microsoft's API extractor is pretty hard to integrate,
caused many problems in the past, and isn't capable of code splitting.
This aligns our d.ts bundling with the .mjs bundling (great alignment).

This commit makes the host bindings of `NgControlStatus[Group]`
compatible with `OnPush` components. Note that this intentionally _does not_
expose any new APIs in the forms module. The goal is only to remove
unpreventable `ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenCheckedError` in the forms
code that developers do not have control over.
