Dojo data stores can be used in General Interface through their native API or via a CDF interface provided by jsx3.xml.DojoDataStore.

To access a Dojo data store via a CDF interface, create an instance of jsx3.xml.DojoDataStore and set its store and the query that retrieves the data from the source, as in the following example:

var cdf = jsx3.xml.DojoDataStore();
cdf.setStore(new dojox.data.JsonRestStore({target:"/RestData"});
cdf.setQuery("?price<10");
var recordIds = cdf.getRecordIds();
var firstRecord = cdf.getRecord(recordIds[0]);

jsx3.xml.DojoDataStore is not a descendant of class jsx3.xml.Document, so it cannot be used directly as the data source of Matrix and other descendants of jsx3.xml.Cacheable. To use a Dojo data source to populate a Matrix, first construct an XML document by iterating over the records in a DojoDataStore instance.
