ng-option issue

[rgolea]

Hi people... I came with this problem before but I haven't been taken seriously.

Ng-option doesn't work properly. I should be able to compare objects rather than put my selection in a different variable.

It should see that if I declare a parameter in, for example a users variable, where I declare what that user works, and then I declare all the jobs out there, it should compare that property and not make me work around it.

Please take me seriously this time.
Thanks.

PS: Really good job.

Some example to illustrate what you're saying would be swell!!

My HTML

<select ng-model="selected" ng-option="color.name for color in colors"></select>

My Controller

$scope.colors = [
      {name:'black', shade:'dark'},
      {name:'white', shade:'light'},
      {name:'red', shade:'dark'},
      {name:'blue', shade:'dark'},
      {name:'yellow', shade:'light'}
    ];

//next line is how it works
$scope.selected = $scope.colors[2];

//next line is how I really need it to work

$scope.selected = {name:'red', shade:'dark'};

I've been searching everywhere in the API. If there is a method and I haven't found it please put an example in the API. On other sites I could only find workarounds.

Thank you.

So, you want to "COPY" the selected object?

[rgolea]

Well... first of all I am copying the object to my database. Now I'm trying to edit it so I need to compare both objects.

This is the wrong repo. I think you may want to start on StackOverflow first or AngularJS repo.
