NavController.pop ionViewDidEnter not fired

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hi all,

If the root page in the nav stack contains the ionViewDidEnter() function it is not fired at all when running NavController pop() or popToRoot(). Is this by design or a bug? I think this applies to any page displayed after NavController.pop() not just the root page.

My env:

cli packages:

@ionic/cli-plugin-cordova       : 1.6.2
@ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular : 1.4.1
@ionic/cli-utils                : 1.7.0
ionic (Ionic CLI)               : 3.7.0

global packages:

Cordova CLI : 6.5.0

local packages:

@ionic/app-scripts : 2.0.2
Cordova Platforms  : android 6.1.2 ios 4.1.1
Ionic Framework    : ionic-angular 3.5.3

System:

Android SDK Tools : 25.2.2
Node              : v6.9.4
OS                : macOS Sierra
npm               : 4.1.2

Thanks!
