How do you use FormController#addControl ?

[Jean Dat]

Hi,

I'm using angular 1.2.28.

As I understand things, ngModel works only for standard form controls like input, checkbox, etc.

Nonetheless, it seems possible to create your own control with FormController#addControl. 

I'm guessing it accepts an instance of NgModelController as parameter.

Is there documentation and code sample for that out there.

I can't find anything.

Thanks.

I choose another path. You don't have to use addControl. Indeed, adding ng-model on any html tag add a new NgModelController instance to your FormController. However, you will have to define what update the view value with $setViewValue and what happens when model is updated with $render.
