Initial ng-model value not set in select

Question

I have an enum (I code using TypeScript):

export enum AddressType
{
    NotSet = 0,

    Home = 1,
    Work = 2,
    Headquarters = 3,

    Custom = -1,
}
         


        

Answer 1

Found the problem:

The array returned by Ctrl.getAddressTypes() was an array of strings:

["0", "1", "2", "3", "1"]

and what was stored in Ctrl.type was of type number.

AngularJS compares the array supplied to ng-options to the value supplied to ng-model using the '===' operator. 3 does not equal to "3" in that case - that's why it did not work.
