+/**
+ * @author Ed Spencer
+ * @class Ext.data.reader.Array
+ * @extends Ext.data.reader.Json
+ * 
+ * <p>Data reader class to create an Array of {@link Ext.data.Model} objects from an Array.
+ * Each element of that Array represents a row of data fields. The
+ * fields are pulled into a Record object using as a subscript, the <code>mapping</code> property
+ * of the field definition if it exists, or the field's ordinal position in the definition.</p>
+ * 
+ * <p><u>Example code:</u></p>
+ * 
+<pre><code>
+Employee = Ext.define('Employee', {
+    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
+    fields: [
+        'id',
+        {name: 'name', mapping: 1},         // "mapping" only needed if an "id" field is present which
+        {name: 'occupation', mapping: 2}    // precludes using the ordinal position as the index.        
+    ]
+});
+
+var myReader = new Ext.data.reader.Array({
+    model: 'Employee'
+}, Employee);
+</code></pre>
+ * 
+ * <p>This would consume an Array like this:</p>
+ * 
+<pre><code>
+[ [1, 'Bill', 'Gardener'], [2, 'Ben', 'Horticulturalist'] ]
+</code></pre>
+ * 
+ * @constructor
+ * Create a new ArrayReader
+ * @param {Object} meta Metadata configuration options.
