Angular version

[Werner Haltner]

Hi,

KendoUI comes with Angular v1.4. Can I replace that with Angular v1.5 without getting any issues with the KendoUI widgets?

Best Regards

Hello,

I am afraid that currently 1.5 is not supported due to some breaking changes in the ng-model directive. As soon as we add support for it a new release will be published.

Kiril, thanks for the information. Can you provide a rough idea about when this might be available. For instance, do you think it would be a Service Pack release or have to wait for the next major release?

Hi,

Generally speaking there is just one problem with AngularJS 1.5, and it is documented in the below article along with a workaround. Please take a look:

Yes I tried the workarounds for this and was mostly able to get them to work after a lot of tweaking. The one exception was a Combo Box enclosed inside a custom directive.

It used the same configuration and data source as my non-enclosed Combo Boxes, but it blew up complaining about "undefined value of form" or something to that effect. I spent quite a lot of time trying to get that to work before deciding that 1.4.8 worked well enough for me. If you are unaware of this issue I can try to create a reproduction.

Hi,

Indeed this is something new - it would be great if you send us a Kendo UI Dojo with a reproduction, so we can further investigate.
