How to use nativescript-pdf-view in .ts files

[rabindhas007]

Hello Experts,
I am trying to use "nativescript-pdf-view" like below in one of my native script project .

import { PDFView } from 'nativescript-pdf-view';

// Create pdf display using External plugin
this._pdf = new PDFView();
this._StackLayout.addChild(this._pdf);

Howevere i am getting dump while trying to create the instance of pdf view as shown above (Its working fine when i create instance from .xml , as shown in the examples.).
Could you help me on how to create instance of nativescript-pdf-view in code behind files in native script.
