BootStrap Modal Dialog Does Not Work with Angular 2 Components

Question

I have a very strange problem. I have an Angular 2 application where I want to display a dialog box on one of the button clicks on one of the components.

Below is the code that I use in the template metadata section and it does not work.

<div class="container">
    <h2>Modal Example</h2>
    <!-- Trigger the modal with a button -->
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-info btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>

    <!-- Modal -->
    <div class="modal fade" id="myModal" role="dialog">
        <div class="modal-dialog">

            <!-- Modal content-->
            <div class="modal-content">
                <div class="modal-header">
                    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
                    <h4 class="modal-title">Modal Header</h4>
                </div>
                <div class="modal-body">
                    <p>Some text in the modal.</p>
                </div>
                <div class="modal-footer">
                    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
                </div>
            </div>

        </div>
    </div>

</div>

When I write all this code in an HTML file and use templateUrl in my @Component decorator, the code works fine and I get a dialog when I click a button.

In both cases, I use the following Javascripts links in the index.html file.
