Compile Error: Incompatible types since an instance of SObject is never an instance of Campaign

Hi,

 

I'm trying to create a controller extension for Campaigns and get the following error:


Compile Error: Incompatible types since an instance of SObject is never an instance of Campaign at line 7 column 32 

 

My extension class is the following:

public class CampaignControllerExtension {
    private ApexPages.standardController controller {get;set;}
    private Campaign currentTraining;
    
    public CampaignControllerExtension(ApexPages.StandardController stdController) {
        controller = stdController;
        this.currentTraining = (Campaign)stdController.getRecord();
    }
}

 Apparently there is an exception on Campaigns Sobject but I didn't find any clue on how to correct this.

 Any Ideas?

 

thanks,

Sorry this was a mistyping, I corrected, but the problem is still there.

Cloudy,

 

Check your Apex classes-my assumption is that you have an Apex class named 'Campaign' that is causing this issue. In this case, the apex logic you have written would be trying to cast the SObject to an instance of this custom Campaign class, rather than to an instance of the standard Campaign object as you intend. Hope that helps!
