The name of the property which contains a response message. This property is optional.

Available since: 3.4.0

The name of the property which contains the Array of row objects. For JSON reader it's dot-separated list of property names. For XML reader it's a CSS selector. For array reader it's not applicable.

By default the natural root of the data will be used. The root Json array, the root XML element, or the array.

The data packet value for this property should be an empty array to clear the data or show no data.

Defaults to: ''

Name of the property from which to retrieve the success attribute. Defaults to success. See Ext.data.proxy.Server.exception for additional information.

Defaults to: 'success'

Available since: 4.0.0

Name of the property from which to retrieve the total number of records in the dataset. This is only needed if the whole dataset is not passed in one go, but is being paged from the remote server. Defaults to total.

Defaults to: 'total'

Defaults to: true

Available since: 4.0.0

The raw data object that was last passed to readRecords. Stored for further processing if needed

Get the reference to the current class from which this object was instantiated. Unlike statics, this.self is scope-dependent and it's meant to be used for dynamic inheritance. See statics for a detailed comparison

Ext.define('My.Cat', {
    statics: {
        speciesName: 'Cat' // My.Cat.speciesName = 'Cat'
    },

    constructor: function() {
        alert(this.self.speciesName); / dependent on 'this'

        return this;
    },

    clone: function() {
        return new this.self();
    }
});


Ext.define('My.SnowLeopard', {
    extend: 'My.Cat',
    statics: {
        speciesName: 'Snow Leopard'         // My.SnowLeopard.speciesName = 'Snow Leopard'
    }
});

var cat = new My.Cat();                     // alerts 'Cat'
var snowLeopard = new My.SnowLeopard();     // alerts 'Snow Leopard'

var clone = snowLeopard.clone();

        alert(statics.speciesName);     // always equals to 'Cat' no matter what 'this' refers to
                                        // equivalent to: My.Cat.speciesName
