Ext.dataview.component.DataItem missing dataMap config ??

[pmarko]

Hello,

I've found another two issues.

First:

I can't find the dataMap config variable in config explorer for Ext.dataview.component.DataItem component and I can't add it as custom property due to existing reservation in architect.

Scond:

Ext.dataview.component.DataItem is not dropable into views in project explorer. I can drop it only to the top level in UI designer (I mean device frame) what places it to the views project category.

I'm using SA2 build 442.

Thanks.

Use an override. Note that this API is probably going to be deprecated in 2.1 (it will continue to work but a new improved way will be introduced).

This was reported (and fixed) yesterday and will be in our upcoming build.

Any word on what the new way to do this is?

I'd recommend using an updateRecord method on your dataitem.

In Sencha Touch 2.1 dataMap has been deprecated and marked for removal in favor of implementing an updateRecord method on your dataitem.

Would it be really nice if you could add an example of using "updateRecord", or just update and clearify the DataItem and DataView documentation!

Thanks

Attaching a basic test case in Touch 2.2 and Architect 2.2.2 that demonstrates usage of the updateRecord in this scenario.
