Kendo is removing my prototype

[Zohar]

Hi,

 I am trying to use Restangular with a Kendo grid. I have my datasource returning Restangular objects that are being displayed in the grid. The problem I am having is that the data object that is passed into the datasource `update`, and `destroy` methods is stripped of its Restangular prototype.  

Why is this happening and is there a way to prevent the overwriting of the prototype?

 

Thanks!

Hello,

Indeed the Kendo UI DataSource wraps its data items as kendo.data.ObservableObject instances. Then it passes them as plain JavaScript objects to the update and destroy methods so they can be easily serialized to JSON. Your objects are not overwritten - the data source just clones them as ObservableObjects and uses those clones instead. This behavior cannot be disabled.
