DataSource, no 'slice' method in xml response

[Fabián]

Hello, I´m new using kendo mobile and I´m trying to invoke a wcf rest service, using xml.

For instance, this login invocation:
            
             var username = "admin";
             var password = "admin";

             var remoteDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
                type: "xml",
                schema: {
                    type: "xml",
                    data: function (response) {
                        return response;
                    }
                },
                transport: {
                    read: "http://localhost/MyService.svc/Security/Login?" +
                        "user=" + username + "&password=" + encrypted,
                    success: function (result) {
                        options.success(result);
                    },
                    error: function (result) {
                        options.error(result);
                    }
                }
            });

            remoteDataSource.fetch();

Where service response has this structure:

<UserData>
    <IsSuccess>true</IsSuccess>
</UserData>

That code is executed in a button event and when debugging, success and error functions are never reached.
This call remoteDataSource.fetch() raises an unhandled exception: "Javascript exception: object has no method 'slice'"

Any help is appreciated about using DataSource when response is xml data.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Fabian,

The Kendo UI DataSource, does not have implemented the success and error functionality that you are trying to use. Please check this documentation article that will get you more familiar with the dataSource API:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/framework/datasource

As for the XML data, please check the following demo, showing how to implement Kendo UI DataSource binding to XML:
