Extract Profile-to-Recordtype association using apex

Hi,

 

I understand that using Salesforce UI, we can associate certain record types (of an object) to a particular user profile. Once that is set, is there a way to extract that information using apex code?

 

For example:

Account object has 2 record types (Individual & Business)

Profile "Western Sales Rep" has access to only "Business" record type.

 

From Apex code, how can I identify the record types for a given profile and object?

 

Thanks.

You can access this type of information from the Metadata API but it is declarative in nature. Unfortunately it is not available via Apex.
