 *
 * AjaxProxy is one of the most widely-used ways of getting data into your application. It uses AJAX requests to load
 * data from the server, usually to be placed into a {@link Ext.data.Store Store}. Let's take a look at a typical setup.
 * Here we're going to set up a Store that has an AjaxProxy. To prepare, we'll also set up a {@link Ext.data.Model
 * Model}:
 *
 *     Ext.define('User', {
 *         extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
 *         fields: ['id', 'name', 'email']
 *     });
 *
 *     //The Store contains the AjaxProxy as an inline configuration
 *     var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
 *         model: 'User',
 *         proxy: {
 *             type: 'ajax',
 *             url : 'users.json'
 *         }
 *     });
 *
 *     store.load();
 *
 * Our example is going to load user data into a Store, so we start off by defining a {@link Ext.data.Model Model} with
 * the fields that we expect the server to return. Next we set up the Store itself, along with a
 * {@link Ext.data.Store#proxy proxy} configuration. This configuration was automatically turned into an
 * Ext.data.proxy.Ajax instance, with the url we specified being passed into AjaxProxy's constructor.
 * It's as if we'd done this:
 *
 *     new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         url: 'users.json',
 *         model: 'User',
 *         reader: 'json'
 *     });
 *
 * A couple of extra configurations appeared here - {@link #model} and {@link #reader}. These are set by default when we
 * create the proxy via the Store - the Store already knows about the Model, and Proxy's default {@link
 * Ext.data.reader.Reader Reader} is {@link Ext.data.reader.Json JsonReader}.
 *
 * Now when we call store.load(), the AjaxProxy springs into action, making a request to the url we configured
 * ('users.json' in this case). As we're performing a read, it sends a GET request to that url (see
 * {@link #actionMethods} to customize this - by default any kind of read will be sent as a GET request and any kind of write
 * will be sent as a POST request).
 *
 * # Limitations
 *
 * AjaxProxy cannot be used to retrieve data from other domains. If your application is running on http://domainA.com it
 * cannot load data from http://domainB.com because browsers have a built-in security policy that prohibits domains
 * talking to each other via AJAX.
 *
 * If you need to read data from another domain and can't set up a proxy server (some software that runs on your own
 * domain's web server and transparently forwards requests to http://domainB.com, making it look like they actually came
 * from http://domainA.com), you can use {@link Ext.data.proxy.JsonP} and a technique known as JSON-P (JSON with
 * Padding), which can help you get around the problem so long as the server on http://domainB.com is set up to support
 * JSON-P responses. See {@link Ext.data.proxy.JsonP JsonPProxy}'s introduction docs for more details.
 *
 * # Readers and Writers
 *
 * AjaxProxy can be configured to use any type of {@link Ext.data.reader.Reader Reader} to decode the server's response.
 * If no Reader is supplied, AjaxProxy will default to using a {@link Ext.data.reader.Json JsonReader}. Reader
 * configuration can be passed in as a simple object, which the Proxy automatically turns into a {@link
 * Ext.data.reader.Reader Reader} instance:
 *
 *     var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         model: 'User',
 *         reader: {
 *             type: 'xml',
 *             root: 'users'
 *         }
 *     });
 *
 *     proxy.getReader(); //returns an {@link Ext.data.reader.Xml XmlReader} instance based on the config we supplied
 *
 * # Url generation
 *
 * AjaxProxy automatically inserts any sorting, filtering, paging and grouping options into the url it generates for
 * each request. These are controlled with the following configuration options:
 *
 * - {@link #pageParam} - controls how the page number is sent to the server (see also {@link #startParam} and {@link #limitParam})
 * - {@link #sortParam} - controls how sort information is sent to the server
 * - {@link #groupParam} - controls how grouping information is sent to the server
 * - {@link #filterParam} - controls how filter information is sent to the server
 *
 * Each request sent by AjaxProxy is described by an {@link Ext.data.Operation Operation}. To see how we can customize
 * the generated urls, let's say we're loading the Proxy with the following Operation:
 *
 *     var operation = new Ext.data.Operation({
 *         action: 'read',
 *         page  : 2
 *     });
 *
 * Now we'll issue the request for this Operation by calling {@link #read}:
 *
 *     var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         url: '/users'
 *     });
 *
 *     proxy.read(operation); //GET /users?page=2
 *
 * Easy enough - the Proxy just copied the page property from the Operation. We can customize how this page data is sent
 * to the server:
 *
 *     var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         url: '/users',
 *         pageParam: 'pageNumber'
 *     });
 *
 *     proxy.read(operation); //GET /users?pageNumber=2
 *
 * Alternatively, our Operation could have been configured to send start and limit parameters instead of page:
 *
 *     var operation = new Ext.data.Operation({
 *         action: 'read',
 *         start : 50,
 *         limit : 25
 *     });
 *
 *     var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         url: '/users'
 *     });
 *
 *     proxy.read(operation); //GET /users?start=50&limit;=25
 *
 * Again we can customize this url:
 *
 *     var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         url: '/users',
 *         startParam: 'startIndex',
 *         limitParam: 'limitIndex'
 *     });
 *
 *     proxy.read(operation); //GET /users?startIndex=50&limitIndex;=25
 *
 * AjaxProxy will also send sort and filter information to the server. Let's take a look at how this looks with a more
 * expressive Operation object:
 *
 *     var operation = new Ext.data.Operation({
 *         action: 'read',
 *         sorters: [
 *             new Ext.util.Sorter({
 *                 property : 'name',
 *                 direction: 'ASC'
 *             }),
 *             new Ext.util.Sorter({
 *                 property : 'age',
 *                 direction: 'DESC'
 *             })
 *         ],
 *         filters: [
 *             new Ext.util.Filter({
 *                 property: 'eyeColor',
 *                 value   : 'brown'
 *             })
 *         ]
 *     });
 *
 * This is the type of object that is generated internally when loading a {@link Ext.data.Store Store} with sorters and
 * filters defined. By default the AjaxProxy will JSON encode the sorters and filters, resulting in something like this
 * (note that the url is escaped before sending the request, but is left unescaped here for clarity):
 *
 *     var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *         url: '/users'
 *     });
 *
 *     proxy.read(operation); //GET /users?sort=[{"property":"name","direction":"ASC"},{"property":"age","direction":"DESC"}]&filter;=[{"property":"eyeColor","value":"brown"}]
 *
 * We can again customize how this is created by supplying a few configuration options. Let's say our server is set up
 * to receive sorting information is a format like "sortBy=name#ASC,age#DESC". We can configure AjaxProxy to provide
 * that format like this:
 *
 *      var proxy = new Ext.data.proxy.Ajax({
 *          url: '/users',
 *          sortParam: 'sortBy',
 *          filterParam: 'filterBy',
 *
 *          //our custom implementation of sorter encoding - turns our sorters into "name#ASC,age#DESC"
 *          encodeSorters: function(sorters) {
 *              var length   = sorters.length,
 *                  sortStrs = [],
 *                  sorter, i;
 *
 *              for (i = 0; i < length; i++) {
 *                  sorter = sorters[i];
 *
 *                  sortStrs[i] = sorter.property + '#' + sorter.direction
 *              }
 *
 *              return sortStrs.join(",");
 *          }
 *      });
 *
 *      proxy.read(operation); //GET /users?sortBy=name#ASC,age#DESC&filterBy;=[{"property":"eyeColor","value":"brown"}]
 *
 * We can also provide a custom {@link #encodeFilters} function to encode our filters.
 *
 * @constructor
 * Note that if this HttpProxy is being used by a {@link Ext.data.Store Store}, then the Store's call to
 * {@link Ext.data.Store#method-load load} will override any specified callback and params options. In this case, use the
 * {@link Ext.data.Store Store}'s events to modify parameters, or react to loading events.
 *
 * @param {Object} config (optional) Config object.
 * If an options parameter is passed, the singleton {@link Ext.Ajax} object will be used to make the request.
