Cannot bind fields using InputField [Fieldsets issue]
Hi all,
I'm using an apex repeat to build a modal using a fieldset.
The following works fine:
I see the field values as placeholder text in my fields.
However, due to the fieldset containing a lookup field, I would like to bind the values to input fields like so:
However, this gives the following error:
currentCase is a property defined as so:
However I do not think this is the issue, due to the first piece of code working. Does anybody have any insight into what is going on?
Additional Info:
This is how I'm populating currentCase (which is working):
I'm using an apex repeat to build a modal using a fieldset.
The following works fine:
<apex:repeat value="{!currentFieldSet}" var="C">
<apex:outputLabel >{!C.Label}</apex:outputLabel>
<apex:inputText html-placeholder="{!currentCase[C.fieldPath]}"></apex:inputText>
</apex:repeat>
I see the field values as placeholder text in my fields.
However, due to the fieldset containing a lookup field, I would like to bind the values to input fields like so:
<apex:repeat value="{!currentFieldSet}" var="C">
<apex:outputLabel >{!C.Label}</apex:outputLabel>
<apex:inputField styleClass="form-control" value="{!currentCase[C.fieldPath]}"/>
</apex:repeat>
However, this gives the following error:
Variable is not visible: [ITSSCnC].currentCase which is [Controller].PropertyName
currentCase is a property defined as so:
public static Case currentCase {get;set;} {currentCase = new Case();}
However I do not think this is the issue, due to the first piece of code working. Does anybody have any insight into what is going on?
Additional Info:
This is how I'm populating currentCase (which is working):
currentCase = [SELECT Subject, Status, Priority, Contact.Name FROM Case WHERE Id =: caseId LIMIT 1];This is how I'm populating the fieldset:
public static List<Schema.FieldSetMember> readFieldSet() {
Map<String, Schema.SObjectType> GlobalDescribeMap = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
Schema.SObjectType SObjectTypeObj = GlobalDescribeMap.get('Case');
Schema.DescribeSObjectResult DescribeSObjectResultObj =
SObjectTypeObj.getDescribe(); Schema.FieldSet fieldSetObj = DescribeSObjectResultObj.FieldSets.getMap().get(fieldSetName);
return fieldSetObj.getFields();
}
1) Input fields (if I recall correctly) use __c for lookups instead of __r, so if the field set is looking at __r instead, then that could be problematic.
2) Also, your Case variable is static, try removing the static keyword, and reorganizing your code a bit
3) To continue with the 2nd point, it's unclear to me, but it looks like you might be instanciating a new Case instance every time the get current case is called. If that's the case, then move this to the constructor, as it won't play nice with the apex:inputField tag.
