Apex error message through normal function

Hi,

 

Can a normal function send an apex error message to the Visualforce Page.

 

EX : 

public void abc (){

 

 ApexPages.addmessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.severity.error,'Error!!!!!!));

 

}

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

No, you cannot send error msg to page from any class. Class must be set either as controller or extensions.

here the context of class does matter.

Hi Alok_vibrant,

 

I have set the above class a s an controller, but the method which is passing the message to VF shoud it  have a return type as "Pagereference" or can it be anything.

 

Thanks in advance.

Kavya - As i guess this method is being execute on some of the event from page like button click right ?

Return type of method can be either PageReference or void, apart from that you also need to include <apex:pageMessages/> vf tag in the page, probably top of the page.
