What is entryComponents in angular ngModule?

Question

I am working on an Ionic app ( 2.0.0-rc0 ) which depends on angular 2 . So the new introduction of ngModules is included.

Answer 1

The entryComponents array is used to define only components that are not found in html and created dynamically. Angular requires this hint to find entry component and compile them.

There are two main types of entry components:

• The bootstrapped root component.
• A component you specify in a route definition.
