I am using Angular 1.5.7 version.
I have a directive that takes in the controller name and view name as strings to then invoke the controller respectively. I am not able to bind username to the invoking controller from the previous controller, I see the value available in my previous controller (i am able to print the value). Please can you advise what could be the issue? I have tried setting the username inside the scope as well without the bindToController construct, but that still does not pass in username to the second controller. In the first controller username is available as a resolved variable. I also tried setting it to vm.username = username (as below) in the first controller but that was not of much help either. FIRST CONTROLLER angular .module('refdata.legalentity') .controller('PendingRequestsController', PendingRequestsController); PendingRequestsController.$inject = ['username']; function PendingRequestsController(username) { var vm = this; vm.username = username; DIRECTIVE, where in I pass the second controller and view by name myApp.directive("pendingRequests", function() { return { restrict: 'E', controller: "@", name: "controllerName", controllerAs: 'pendingReqCtrl', scope: {}, bindToController: { username: '=username' }, templateUrl: function(tElement, tAttrs) { return tAttrs.templateUrl; } };}); -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Angular and AngularJS discussion" group.
