Current behavior
On re-selection of the same dropdown item, onChange event is fired

Expected behavior
onChange should be fired only when the selection changes. Re-selection of the same item is technically not a change.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions
This is not needed I guess as the implementation is fairly straightforward.

Please tell us about your environment:
Windows 10, VS 2017, NPM v3.10.9

• Angular version: 4.1.1

• PrimeNG version: 4.0.0

• Browser: [all]

• Language: [TypeScript 2.3.2]

• Node (for AoT issues): node --version = 7.2.0

I can replicate the issue.The onchange event is emitted on click of list, thats why the same item selection also causes the change event.

So is this accepted as a bug?

@sudheerj Is this going to be fixed in the next release?

Hi,

I have still this problem while selecting same item.

Is this issue fixed, or not?

How could i realize selecting same item?

Thanks
