Changes setting data yields e.slice error from 2013.3.1324 to 2015.3.111

[BitShift]

Im working on an existing project that was referencing kendo mvc and associated scripts etc version 2013.3.1324 and have since upgraded to 2015.3.1111

There a number of grids that use a datasource loaded via Ajax.  The datasource is populated similar to this:

MyDatasourceVar.data(data)

Where the data variable is that returned from the ajax request.

This results in a javascript error (e.slice is not a function)

If I simply change this code to something like this :  MyDatasourceVar.data = data, the error goes away.

Looking over the (current) docs for datasource
http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/data/datasource

I see mention of using the "data" property, but not a setter method like what has ben used in my project.  Was this a change in some version between the two mentioned?

Hello BitShift,

 

There is only data method for the DataSource. You can use it to get/set data from/to DataSource. When used as a setter the argument must always be an array. If it is not such error might appear.
