ng build --prod

The log given by the failure.

ERROR in Error encountered resolving symbol values statically. Reference to a local (non-exported) symbol 'VarName'...

Mention any other details that might be useful.

I have an application that has a dynamic template 'determined' at runtime and by various factors. The possibilities are infinite to hard-code them. Before i upgraded the cli - my prod build would just work fine. It appears that the current version performs some static code validation/analysis for AOT compliance and hence is breaking it.

I am not planning to run this particular app in AOT since the template cannot be determined at runtime.

I would need a way to disable static analysis during build so I would be able to achieve the desired result.

Appreciate your input on this.
