Calling "updateInitialValue" on an unitialized field throw a JavaScript error.

Hi,

First of all, thanks for the project.

Trying to use the updateInitialValue method with, at least, one field not initialized, crash with the following JavaScript error : "field.updateInitialValue is not a function".

It appears that the field is not initialized until the "hideExpression" becomes true.

Here is a JSBin example to reproduce the issue : http://jsbin.com/fimotu/edit?html,output

Or you can directly use the hide-fields example.

Thanks.

Hi, I have the same exact issue. formly code does the routine of calling the updateInitialValue on all fields, but if by default the field was disabled (using the hideExpression), that routine will go into exception since disabled fields are not properly initialized by formely, it did not wrap them with these formly functions.

Could anyone provide a fix, please?

Hi @dariusjb and @maxime-beguin,

Thanks for reporting this. It needs more investigation and possibly a fix.

Could anyone provide a fix, please?
