Class Ext.data.XmlReader

Data reader class to create an Array of Ext.data.Record objects from an XML document based on mappings in a provided Ext.data.Record constructor.

Note: that in order for the browser to parse a returned XML document, the Content-Type header in the HTTP response must be set to "text/xml" or "application/xml".

Example code:

var Employee = Ext.data.Record.create([
   {name: 'name', mapping: 'name'},     // "mapping" property not needed if it is the same as "name"
   {name: 'occupation'}                 // This field will use "occupation" as the mapping.
]);
var myReader = new Ext.data.XmlReader({
   totalProperty: "results", // The element which contains the total dataset size (optional)
   record: "row",           // The repeated element which contains row information
   idProperty: "id"         // The element within the row that provides an ID for the record (optional)
   messageProperty: "msg"   // The element within the response that provides a user-feedback message (optional)
}, Employee);

This would consume an XML file like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataset>
 <results>2</results>
 <row>
   <id>1</id>
   <name>Bill</name>
   <occupation>Gardener</occupation>
 </row>
 <row>
   <id>2</id>
   <name>Ben</name>
   <occupation>Horticulturalist</occupation>
 </row>
</dataset>
