title: kendo ui transport data is null
body: <p>Can anyone explain to me why the obj parameter in the httpGet values are null/undefined! I'm using vb so there equal to Nothing! I don't understand why I can get the correct values from the data. </p>
  
  <pre><code>var newGridDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
      transport: {
          read: {
              url: "/api/Stuff/",
              dataType: "json",
              data: 
                  function(){
  
                      return { name: "Bob" };
                  }
  
          }
      }
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My visual basic code is</p>
  
  <pre><code>Structure g
      Public name As String
  End Structure
  
  
  &lt;HttpGet&gt;
  Function returnGrid(&lt;FromBody()&gt; obj As g) As  HttpResponseMessage
  
      Return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK)
  End Function
