Format of datepicker not being used on render. about md2 HOT 2 CLOSED

It seems like writeValue is being called before the format is set from the component so it uses the default.

Right now in my app I am proxying the writeValue for the DatePicker to have the correct format (as a hack) before this gets fixed in the library.

This is my current hack:

const _dateFormat = 'MM/DD/YYYY';
const writeValue = Md2Datepicker.prototype.writeValue;

// need to override this function because the format is set wrong here
Md2Datepicker.prototype.writeValue = function (value): void {
    this.format = _dateFormat;
    writeValue.call(this, value);
};

from md2.

➕1️⃣ I had the issue in my demo project.
