problem binding XML to Grid , when xml node having duplicate elements

[Selvamani]

my sample xml is 

<id> 
  <r rn="1">
   <vw n="address" v="Mycomp" />
   <vw n="description" v="AdminOU" />
   <vw n="identifier" v="1" />
 </r>
 <r rn="2">
     <vw n="address" v="Mycomp" />
   <vw n="description" v="SASDesignOU" />
   <vw n="identifier" v="2" />
 </r>
 </id>

i have 3 columns in my grid , 
{
                type: 'xml',
                data: '/id/r/vw',
                model: {
                    id: 'rn',
                    fields: {
                        id:     '@rn',
                      address:   { field:    '@v'},
                      description: '@v',
      identifier  : '@v'
                        
                    }
                }
            }

since my <element> having duplicated in the <r> node, the output is coming as

address        description     identifire
---------         --------------     -----------
Mycomp       Mycomp         Mycomp

AdminOU       AdminOU       AdminOU
  1                    1                    1

Hi Selvamani,

I'm afraid that this scenario is not fully supported as the columns are described by multiple elements with same name. Although you may use schema similar to the following to described this:

           type: 'xml',
   data: '/id/r',
   model: {

          fields: {

            rn: '@rn',

            address:{ field: '/vw/[0]/@v'},

            description: '/vw/[1]/@v',

            identifier  : '/vw/[2]/@v'           

          }

        }

I suggest you to consider either combining column values as attributes of a single element or renaming the elements with names of the separate fields.All the best,
