/**
 * @class Ext.direct.PollingProvider
 * @extends Ext.direct.JsonProvider
 *
 * <p>Provides for repetitive polling of the server at distinct {@link #interval intervals}.
 * The initial request for data originates from the client, and then is responded to by the
 * server.</p>
 * 
 * <p>All configurations for the PollingProvider should be generated by the server-side
 * API portion of the Ext.Direct stack.</p>
 *
 * <p>An instance of PollingProvider may be created directly via the new keyword or by simply
 * specifying <tt>type = 'polling'</tt>.  For example:</p>
 * <pre><code>
var pollA = new Ext.direct.PollingProvider({
    type:'polling',
    url: 'php/pollA.php',
});
Ext.Direct.addProvider(pollA);
pollA.disconnect();

Ext.Direct.addProvider(
    {
        type:'polling',
        url: 'php/pollB.php',
        id: 'pollB-provider'
    }
);
var pollB = Ext.Direct.getProvider('pollB-provider');
 * </code></pre>
