User Profile LicenseType

Hi,

I have created a controller for visual force page as follows:

public class ControllerLicenseTypeTest {

   public Profile getProfile(){

     Profile p = [Select Id, LicenseType from Profile  Limit 1];

     return p;

   }

}



In above method I am trying to fetch the license type of a user profile. But when execute this code I found this error message :

Error: Compile Error: No such column 'LicenseType' on entity 'Profile'. If you are attempting to use a custom field, be sure to append the '__c' after the custom field name. Please reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names. at line 3 column 15


Where as this query '
Select Id, LicenseType from Profile  Limit 1' return the record in sforce Explorer.

Please fix this problem.
Looking for quick response.

Thanks
Yogesh

reference information about the user's profile such as license

type or name.

Visualforce:

Hi,

Thanks for your quick response.

Could you please give me some sample code or example to find out LicenseType in Visual Force using  $Profile.LicenseType ?
