Angular 10.1.0‑next.5 Release Notes: Bug Fixes, New Features, and Breaking Changes
Angular 10.1.0‑next.5 has been released, bringing a set of bug fixes, new capabilities such as compiler‑CLI resource dependency tracking and language‑service enhancements, as well as breaking changes that tighten type safety in @angular/forms directives and AbstractControl.parent handling.
Angular 10.1.0‑next.5 has been released, providing a collection of bug fixes, new features, and breaking changes for developers.
Bug fixes
common: added boolean to valid JSON for testing.
core: migrated relative link resolution to use single quotes to align with the style guide.
forms: improved the type of the directive constructor’s arguments.
forms: included null in the abstract control’s .parent type.
language service: Ivy – mixed visitor should not find the let keyword.
router: correctly assigned ExtraOptions for the router in RouterTestingModule.
New features
compiler‑CLI: support for obtaining resource dependencies of source files.
forms: added migration for accessing AbstractControl.parent.
language service: added getDefinitionAndBoundSpan (go‑to‑definition).
language service: added quick‑info for inline templates in Ivy.
Breaking changes
forms: In the @angular/forms package, directives previously declared any[] as the type for validators and accepted an asyncValidators parameter of the same type; these parameters now have correct, stricter types, so code that relied on the old signatures may need updates for type safety.
forms: AbstractControl.parent type now includes null. If your code does not already handle this, the TypeScript compiler may raise errors. A v11 migration is available that adds non‑null assertion operators where necessary.
Additionally, null is now part of the .parent type; if you test against undefined, you should change the check to === null because the parent is explicitly initialized with null rather than undefined.
