import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { getInstance } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { ListBox } from '@syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns';

@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `<div class="e-section-control">
                <button id="enableitem" (click)="btnclick()" class="e-btn">ENABLE ITEMS</button>
               <ejs-listbox id="listbox" [dataSource]="data" (created)="created()"></ejs-listbox></div>`
})

export class AppComponent {
public data: { [key: string]: Object }[] = [
    { text: 'Hennessey Venom', id: 'list-01' },
    { text: 'Bugatti Chiron', id: 'list-02' },
    { text: 'Bugatti Veyron Super Sport', id: 'list-03' },

   let listboxobj:ListBox = getInstance((document as any).getElementById("listbox"), ListBox) as ListBox;
    listboxobj.enableItems(['Bugatti Veyron Super Sport', 'SSC Ultimate Aero'], false);
}

btnclick():void{
  let listboxobj:ListBox = getInstance((document as any).getElementById("listbox"), ListBox) as ListBox;
  listboxobj.enableItems(['Bugatti Veyron Super Sport', 'SSC Ultimate Aero'], true);
}
}
