$timeout has a better name ($defer got often confused with something related to $q) and
is actually promise based with cancelation support.
With this commit the $defer service is deprecated and will be removed before 1.0.
Closes#704, #532
$position marker doesn't work well in cases when we have just one item
in the list because then the item is both the first and last. To solve
this properly we need to expose individual $first and $middle and $last
flags.
BREAKING CHANGE: $position is not exposed in repeater scopes any more
To update, search for $position and replace it with one of $first,
$middle or $last.
Closes#912
Since angular attaches scope/injector/controller
into DOM it should clean up after itself. No need
to complain about memory leaks, since they can
only happened on detached DOM. Detached DOM would
only be in tests, since in production the DOM
would be attached to render tree and removal
would automatically clear memory.
When using inject/module helper methods in tests, these methods would
leave the injector laying around after the test. Since injector is
the application it can grow very large.
The url used for location parsing was quite strict and did not support
custom url schemes like "chrome-extension://". With this change the only
requirement for scheme is that it doesn't contain ":" character.
The real issue is in FF, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407172.
FF overly encodes stuff which breaks our expectations and then we fail .url() != currentUrl.absUrl()
comparison unexpectidly, which leads to infinite digest.
The workaround is to correct for this inconsistency in $browser and decode any single quotes in urls.
Closes#920
IE9 ignores setAttribute('src', val) calls on img if "ng:src" attribute
is present. It only fetches the image if element property is updated as well.
Closes#935
On IE9 the input event is not fired when backspace or delete key are pressed or when
cut is performed. This makes listening on the input event unreliable and therefore
it's better for us to just use keydown/change events instead.
Closes#879
the old implementation didn't reattach jquery/jqlite data which caused
things like to be lost
I tried various implementations but it appears that by reattaching the data
to the new node by copying the expando property is the most reliable of all.
