I'm using primeng in an angular 2 application and facing this issue (stackoverflow question)

Although the plunkr provided in the accepted answer works but it doesn't in my scenario. I have a separate component that loads the based on an input from the parent component. I want to toggle the visibility flag when the child component is closed/hidden.

Here's the code snippet

 <p-dialog header="Assets Management" [(visible)]="showDialog" modal="modal" [closable]="true" (onHide)="close()" appendTo="body">
          .. some content ..
  </p-dialog>

In component, I have:

@Component({
    selector: 'view-car-colors',
    templateUrl: '/view-car-colors.html',
    inputs: ['showDialog'],
    outputs: ["onCloseDialog"],
})
export class ViewCarColorsComponent {
    private showDialog: boolean = false;    //default close
    private onCloseDialog: EventEmitter<any> = new EventEmitter();

    public close(): void {
        this.showDialog = false;
        //emit this to its parent
        this.onCloseDialog.emit({ hasChanges: true });
    }
}

And finally in my parent component, I am calling it like:

<view-car-colors [showDialog]="showCarColorsDialog" (onCloseDialog)="onCarColorsCloseDialog($event)"></view-car-colors>

Where showCarColorsDialog is changed based on a button click.

private onCarColorsCloseDialog($event: any): void {
    this.showCarColorsDialog = false;
    if ($event.hasChanges) {
        //fetch the changes again
        this.getCarColors();
    }
}

I have used the primeng controls on multiple places and they all work fine but just has this issue so I'm sure it can't be because of the version.

After onHide didn't worked, I found a workaround using getter/setter like:

In my child component:

private _showDialog: boolean = false;

set showDialog(_show: boolean) {
        let result: boolean = this._showDialog != _show;
        if (result == true) {
            this._showDialog = _show;
            this.onCloseDialog.emit({ hasChanges: this.hasChanges, state: this._showDialog });
        }
    }
    get showDialog(): boolean{
        return this._showDialog;
    }

And in parent template:

<!--View Car Colors Dialog In Parent Component-->
<view-car-colors [showDialog]="showCarColorsDialog" (onCloseDialog)="onCarColorsCloseDialog($event)"></view-car-colors>

In Component, I receive the emit event:

private onCarColorsCloseDialog($event: any): void {
    let result = this.showCarColorsDialog != $event.state;
    if (result == true) {
        this.showCarColorsDialog = $event.state;
        if ($event.hasChanges) {
            this.getCarColors();
        }
    }
}

try to implement:

export class ViewCarColorsComponent {
    @Output() onCloseDialog: EventEmitter<any> = new EventEmitter<any>();
.
.
.

}

and change modal="modal" to modal="true" in html file

use a get/set

public _displayDialog: boolean = false;
get displayDialog() { return this._displayDialog; }
set displayDialog(value) {
  this._displayDialog = value;
  if (this._displayDialog == false) {
    alert("hide")
  }
};
