Description

Model-View Databinding changed from 5.2.0 to 5.2.1

<Alloy>
  <Model src="contact" id="contact" instance="true" />
  <Window>
    <Label text="$.contact.name" />
  </Window>
</Alloy>

*Derived file:* +In 5.2.0+

$.__alloyId5.text = _.isFunction($.contact.transform) ? $.contact.transform()["name"] : _.template("<%=contact.name%>", {
  contact: $.contact.toJSON()
});

+In 5.2.1+ ({color:red}{$.{color} got not translared to <%=)

 $.__alloyId407.text = _.isFunction($.contact.transform) ? $.contact.transform()["name"] : _.template("{$.contact.name}", {
  contact: $.contact.toJSON()
});

Now the underscore _.template function would never work so it ist required to implement a transform function in all collections

transform: function(){				
  return this.toJSON();
}
