Email Tempate, VF Component, and Controller

I am trying to set up an email template that uses a component which references a class. I think I'm very close, but I can't seem to pass the argument to the class. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

If I replace :partnerid in the class with an actual string value....it all works fine.

 

The Class

//```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

public with sharing class findPartnerAccountsByPartnerName {

private final List<Account> accounts;

public String partnerid {
      get; set;
    }    

public findPartnerAccountsByPartnerName() {
    
accounts = [select Name,ShippingCity,ShippingState,ShippingPostalCode,
            Type,industry,ShippingCountry,partner_id__c from Account

where Partner_ID__c = :partnerid
 and Inactive_Account__c = False
order by type asc, Name asc];

}
public List<Account> getAccounts() {
return accounts;
}

}

 

//````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

 

The Component (snipet)

<apex:component controller="findPartnerAccountsByPartnerName" access="global">
<apex:attribute name="mypartnerid"
    description="This is the ID of the partner."
    type="String" assignTo="{!partnerid}" />
<apex:dataTable cellspacing="5"  value="{!Accounts}" var="a">

 

//````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

 

The Email Template

<messaging:emailTemplate subject="Current List of Tactician Customers and Prospects"
 recipientType="Contact" relatedToType="Account"
>
<messaging:htmlEmailBody >
 <html>
 <body >
<p>Below is a list of ...</p>

<c:PartnerCustomers mypartnerid="{!relatedTo.PartnerConnect__c}">
</c:PartnerCustomers>

</body>
</html>
</messaging:htmlEmailBody>
</messaging:emailTemplate>

Hey,

 

Your constructor is always being called before your getter is set (it's an order of execution thing). Try this instead:

 

public with sharing class findPartnerAccountsByPartnerName {

public List<Account> accounts{

  get{

    if(accounts == null){

accounts = [select Name,ShippingCity,ShippingState,ShippingPostalCode ,
            Type,industry,ShippingCountry,partner_id__c from Account

where Partner_ID__c = :partnerid
 and Inactive_Account__c = False
order by type asc, Name asc];

    }

   return accounts;

  } set; }

 

public String partnerid {
      get; set;
    }    

public findPartnerAccountsByPartnerName() { 

}

}

Thank you so much. I wouldn't have come up with that. Your solution worked perfectly.

 

Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it.
