ngSwitch and ngSwitchCase

Question

ngSwitch and ngSwitchCase, which one is structural directive?

Mahesh Verma · Answer

Hi Komal, ngSwitchCase is structural directive and ngSwitch is attribute directive. As per the angular.io website : (https://angular.io/guide/structural-directives) NgSwitch itself is not a structural directive. It's an attribute directive that controls the behavior of the other two switch directives. That's why you write [ngSwitch], never *ngSwitch. For more information about the directive, please have a look into this https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/overview-of-directives-in-angular/
