grid empty result response handling

[Michael]

Any one else noticed that if the grid receives an empty result set crashes? Say one of the filters returns zero results it all goes south, is there a way to save it? It returns this error : Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined  

[Michael]

so no one else has a similar issue? The grid becomes unusable this way and i think that the admins should give us a hint on how to prevent this.

I am looking for the same as well.

Note this similar post for the error:

Here is a solution posted in another thread I came up with for handling empty grid data:

Thanks for that, but not exactly a clean solution, i have gone this way eventually, but i don't like the way it turned out. Appart from the extra code, you have to control the grid from the "outside" which is not the best idea when you want to take advantage of the component.

The following worked for me. Inside the schema config do this :
data : function(data) {
     if (data.results.length == 0) {
    return [];
    }
return data.results;
}

provided of course that you expect the results note as a source for the grid
