/**
* Instantiates a single {@link Component} type and inserts its Host View into current View.
* `NgComponentOutlet` provides a declarative approach for dynamic component creation.
*
* `NgComponentOutlet` requires a component type, if a falsy value is set the view will clear and
* any existing component will get destroyed.
*
* ### Fine tune control
*
* You can control the component creation process by using the following optional attributes:
*
* * `ngOutletInjector`: Optional custom {@link Injector} that will be used as parent for the
* Component.
* Defaults to the injector of the current view container.
*
* * `ngOutletProviders`: Optional injectable objects ({@link Provider}) that are visible to the
* component.
*
* * `ngOutletContent`: Optional list of projectable nodes to insert into the content
* section of the component, if exists. ({@link NgContent}).
*
*
* ### Syntax
*
* Simple
* ```
* <ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="componentTypeExpression"></ng-container>
* ```
*
* Customized
* ```
* <ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="componentTypeExpression;
* injector: injectorExpression;
* content: contentNodesExpression">
* </ng-container>
* ```
*
* # Example
*
* {@example common/ngComponentOutlet/ts/module.ts region='SimpleExample'}
*
* A more complete example with additional options:
*
* {@example common/ngComponentOutlet/ts/module.ts region='CompleteExample'}
*
* @experimental
