How to get countries in a list in APEX
Hi Have scanned the resources and cannot find a solution that works:
I know it has to be done along these lines here:
public static void getCountries()
{
Schema.DescribeFieldResult fieldResult = Contact.MailingCountryCode.getDescribe();
List<Schema.PicklistEntry> ple = fieldResult.getPicklistValues();
for(Schema.PicklistEntry s:ple){
System.debug('value: '+s.getLabel());
}
}
BUT I get this error : "Method does not exist or incorrect signature: void getDescribe() from the type String"
With VF Page including:
<apex:selectList value="{!Country}" size="1" required="true">
<apex:selectOptions value="{!Countriesj}"/>
</apex:selectList>
I have tried other code, like the one from @gregorz Skaruz
http://skaruz.com/en/2015/03/english-salesforce-how-to-access-state-and-country-picklists-values-in-apex/
It looks great, but is is coming up with an empty Select options List.
Any Help is appreciated.

Schema.sObjectType objType = Contact.getSObjectType();
Schema.DescribeSObjectResult objDescribe = objType.getDescribe();
map<String, Schema.SObjectField> fieldMap = objDescribe.fields.getMap();
list<Schema.PicklistEntry> values = fieldMap.get('MailingCountryCode').getDescribe().getPickListValues();
List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();
for (Schema.PicklistEntry v : values){
options.add(new SelectOption(v.getLabel(), v.getLabel()));
}
System.debug('---->'+options);
