ionic 3, custom component and ngClass binding issue

Question

I tried to make a simple component in Ionic3 to display dots to indicate on which page we are. I'd used the ionic generate command to generate this component :

import { Component, Input } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'panel-indicator',
  templateUrl: 'panel-indicator.html'
})
export class PanelIndicatorComponent {

  @Input() page: number;

  constructor() {
    console.log('Hello PanelIndicatorComponent Component');
    this.page = 1;
  }

}

and this is the template part :

<div class="indicator-list">
  <div class="indicator selected" [ngClass]="{'selected': page === 1}"></div>
  <div class="indicator" [ngClass]="{'selected': page === 2}"></div>
  <div class="indicator" [ngClass]="{'selected': page === 3}"></div>
</div>

when i remove ngclass attribute, there is no problems. but, when i add it, i have the following error :

Can't bind to 'ngClass' since it isn't a known property of 'div'. ("
<div class="indicator-list">

  <div class="indicator selected" [ERROR ->][ngClass]="{'selected': page === 1}"></div>

i haven't find anything about this issue. So, if you have an idea, you're welcome.

thanks for reading.

You need to add BrowserModule

@NgModule(
  imports: [BrowserModule, /* other imports */] from '@angular/platform-browser',
  ...
)

If it is in a child module import CommonModule.

import { CommonModule } from "@angular/common"
