Model, DataSource and Date

[Luc]

Hello,

I'm trying to user the kendo.data.Model to make an observable object from a single object retrieved from a web service.
When I do a kendo.data.Model.define(...), the fields are entirely ignored, and the field containing the date is mapped to a string.

If I create a datasource with the exact same model, I retrieve a correct date.

I tried to put a custom parse function, and in the first case, nothing happen.
In the second scenario, I can see my parse method called.

Here is a sample of what I do :

var obj = {

    Id: "1",

    Name: "foo",

    Age: "28",

    Fire: "/Date(1348479856993)/"

};

 

var objModel = kendo.data.Model.define({

    id: "Id",

    fields: {

        Id: { type: "number" },

        Name: { type: "string", parse: function(e) {

                debugger;

                return e;

            }

        },

        Fire: { type: "date" },

        Age: { type: "number" }

    }

});

 

var obj1 = new objModel(obj);

console.log(obj1.get("Fire"));

 

var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({

    data: [ obj ],

    schema: {

        model: {

            id: "Id",

            fields: {

                Id: { type: "number" },

                Name: { type: "string", parse: function(e) {

                    debugger;

                    return e;

                }

            },

                Fire: { type: "date" },

                Age: { type: "number" }

            }

        }

    }

});

dataSource.read();

var obj2 = dataSource.at(0);

console.log(obj2.get("Fire"));

This make the following output to the console :

/Date(1348479856993)/
