dropdown not work with routerLinkActive in the same component cause multiple onInit are called

[jjlorenzo]

sorry for not having time right now for more details, basically the routerLinkActive directive trigger a view update that calls again the dropdown onInit and this second run it isn't handled properly, I see duplicated dom and the events doesn't works, this only happens on router navigation

call 1

call 2

duplicated dom elements

If I set container="body" it works but I like the inline styles

Thanks for note, I was not expecting ngOnInit run twice, can you check one thing: is ng on destroy is called in between?

[jjlorenzo]

not, I checked this trying to make some cleanup without luck because it isn't called twice, the component doesn't get destroyed, (forgive my lack off knoledge) is like gets inspected again for changes.
I can confirm that if in the router I disable(returning at method start) RouterLinkActive.update it works, look at the picture, my guess is that line 129 is the one that cause the twice call.

It seems to me that it is router activate issue, but I will provide a hack anyway

[jjlorenzo]

thanks! ​

@jjlorenzo please create an issue in angular repo and link it here
in meanwhile I will do a hack to block this behavior
