Don't see icons, when run with aot: true (or build --prod --aot="true")

[denysSlobodianykAVA]

I'm submitting a...

[ ] Regression (a behavior that used to work and stopped working in a new release)
[ ] Support request

Current behavior

No icons inside in production build

Expected behavior

Icons exist inside in production build

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

• Install Angular 8.2.14, ngneat svg-icon 3.2.0.

• run locally with aot: true (inside angular.json: architect -> build -> options -> aot: true) , or build --prod --aot="true")

• when aot=true - no icon

  

• when aot=false - icon exist

  

Tried to reproduce the code in stackblitz. But here somehow it works ( https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-d2mmak?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.html

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

It works fine for me. If you still have an issue, feel free to reopen it.

@NetanelBasal hi, yes it still doesn't work for me (in - - prod build) . Smth went strange. Can it be, because of Angular 8 and not using Ivy?

[NetanelBasal]

Sounds weird. Why you're still on v8?

[denysSlobodianykAVA]

Yea, I know). I am using 'set' on ContentChildren <Directive>, and it does not work fine on Angular 9, if I am changing count of templates with this directive in runtime. That is why). But someday soon I will update ng and hope not have issue with icons
