Current behavior For the above code Angular 9 running in strict mode reports the type error: "Type '"checkbox"' is not assignable to type 'SelectionType'." Also, IntelliJ IDE detects the same error. As a result I cannot build this app in strict mode. It builds with fullTemplateTypeCheck enabled. The UI works as expected with this syntax.

I got it to work in ng9 strict mode by importing SelectionType...

import {DatatableComponent, SelectionType} from '@swimlane/ngx-datatable';

And using this syntax...

[selectionType]="SelectionType.checkbox"

[vinayakshedgeri]

Import it import { SelectionType } from '@swimlane/ngx-datatable';

Declare it

  selection: SelectionType;

initialize it constructor() { this.selection = SelectionType.checkbox; };
