[Table] Does not work when targetting ES6 since Angular Material 6.4.2-6.4.5 (6.4.1 is working fine)

[Lukespacewalker]

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

[Table] Does not work when targeting ES6 since Angular Material 6.4.2-6.4.5 (6.4.1 is working fine)

What is the expected behavior?

Angular Material Table should be rendered correctly
(I have to revert @angular/material back to 6.4.1 as 6.4.2 - 6.4.5 are unable to render the table.

What is the current behavior?

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

I do have the same issue with v6.4.5 targeting es5 but only on spec, but works correctly if served under develop

All my table spec tests failed with the mentioned error.

[epelc]

Any update on this? It's kind of a big deal not being able to target ES6.

[tarmo-randma]

Still unable to use ES6 on v7.0.2. MatTableModule throws "ctorParameters.map is not a function"

[epelc]

@tarmo-randma There was 2 fixes one didn't make it into 7.0.2 but it should be good on master or the next release.

See our discussion here #13709 (comment)

And the updated fix #13834

[Frozen-byte]

Related to angular/angular-cli#12832
