Ext.data.Record.create fails

[dgherrig]

Hi,
From everything I can tell about reading the docs and checking the forums, the following should work:

var MyRecord = Ext.data.Record.create(
[
{name: "id", type: "string"},
{name: "action", type: "string"},
{name: "category", type: "string"},
{name: "authorized", type: "boolean"}
]
);
However in chrome I see the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'items' of undefined

fields = me.fields.items;Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'items' of undefined



length = fields.length;


In FF:

TypeError: me.fields is undefined

Any idea what I am doing wrong here.

Thanks in advance for any help or pointers on this.

What you want to accomplish with that?

Use Model instead.

I was trying to add a record/data entry to the store. The above way is what the documentation and the forums said to do. However I later found out that:

var record = ({
id: Ext.id(),
action: "startnow",
categroy: "red-dog",
authorized: true
});

store.add(record);

works just fine. It not clear why the documentation showed the other way.

Are you sure you are looking into ExtJS4 / Touch 2 documentation?

In SA you should create a Model then use it like:

var record = Ext.create("Mymodel", {...});

store.add() can receive an object or model instance.
