Sorry where can this sample be downloaded:

Can’t find it in the source.

@Peter Stoev: My comment is not a criticism but seeking to understand as I’m new to both ng2 and your widgets. I was basically using widgets of another vendor jquery based but evaluating jqwidgets as an option as my old provider will not have ng2 compatible widgets for a while.

Now your write-up at http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-documentation/documentation/angular2/angular2.htm?search= suggests that ViewChild, AfterViewChecked need to be used with any widget used. In some other libraries I’ve seen, these are not explicitly utilized. Can you just make it simple for me to understand?

Thanks but some things are a bit confusing for a newbie to both ng2 and jaw like me. For instance, why are you not using ngModules (I know it’s kind of optional). Also why must use of jaw widgets surface obscure features like ViewChild and AfterViewChecked?

Hello Peter,

I’ve waited ages for the ng2 widgets but no joy: what you released seems to be for RC1 but we are on RC5 today and there are huge changes. Or have I misunderstood what it says at http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-documentation/documentation/angular2/angular2.htm?search= especially at:

var ngVer = ‘@2.0.0-rc.1’; // lock in the angular package version; do not let it float to current!
