Reworks the way
MatSelect
handles syncing its selected state between its child options and theSelectionModel
, making it easier to follow and generally more robust. Previously we kept syncing the selected state in parallel between the options themselves and the selection model, which meant that we had to prevent infinite loops by ignoring any non-user changes to the options'selected
state. This made theMatOption.select
andMatOption.deselect
methods useless to consumers and was very error prone. The new approach makes theselect
anddeselect
methods usable and allows us to turn theMatOption.selected
property into an input, getting it closer to the nativeoption
API.These changes also address the following issues that I bumped into along the way:
MatOption.onSelectionChange
was emitting even if the selection hadn't changed.SelectionModel.sort
wasn't sorting its values if the consumer hadn't attempted to access theselected
value since the last time it changed.Fixes #9314.
