The parse function of kendo.data.Model not triggered when create a new Model

[qu]

Hello, Kendo Team
  I'm studying Kendo UI Mobile data binding features and has a problem,when define a parse function for  kendo.data.Model  in "fields" section,the function has not triggered when create a new instance of the Model.

var Person = kendo.data.Model.define({
    fields: {
        name: {
            editable: true,
            from:"name",
            parse:function(v){
               console.log('parse name..., v=' + v);
               return v;
            }
        },
        age:{
        type:"number"
        }
    }
});



var person = new Person( {
    name: "John Doe",
    age: 42
});

In above code,the parse function is not triggered when create a new Person.
My question is:
How about he parse function works, any advices for parse function usage?

Hello,

The parse function will be invoked when you try to set a field via the set method of the model e.g.

person.set("name", "value");
