debugInfoEnabled(false) conflicts with AngularActor and broadcast/emit

[rofreytag]

Hey there!

As described in the angular documentation I configured my app for production use like this:

anglar.module('app').config(['$compileProvider', function ($compileProvider) {
  $compileProvider.debugInfoEnabled(false);
}]);

When doing this, I cannot getAngularActor to work. Specifically scope.broadcastand emit do nothing. My guess is, lift-ng uses some angular routines that are considered debug-only, like $element.scope().

Tell me if you have problems reproducing. Regards Robert

Thanks for the report, Robert! I'm not yet sure if I'll laugh or cry if it turns out lift-ng can't work when angular is in production mode. Hopefully I can investigate soon.

Seems to me that I'll have to go back to the drawing board because according to this issue, it's just how it is.

Just thinking on the top of my head, I suspect I could rewrite future/promise support to use Lift 3's round trips once I drop 2.x support (could do that really soon). Not entirely sure about the binding actors tho.

After talking to you online earlier, I reviewed that issue above and borrowed a directive that seems to make some of the cases work. I'm still sorting through all the features that were depending on this debug mode, but looks promising thus far.

Glad I could give some directions here!

Got a working version here: #41 Take it for a spin when you get time.
