Soozee issues with getContent()
Hi, I have an Apex class that creates a PDF attachment for each id that it is passed.
This works great when only 50 or so IDs are passed in, but any more than that and I get a Heap error.
I read somewhere that I could create a webservice in Apex to get around this, but I can't find any documentation about calling a salesforce webservice from within the same salesforce org.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, or suggest a different solution, that would be greatly appreciated!
I wasn't able to figure out a way around it, so I am just limiting the PDF creation to 100 records at a time.

You could use a class that implements Database.batchable.
You basically schedule a batch job to run on its own, say, 50 records at a time, to avoid hitting the ceiling limits.
See this page for a more detailed explanation:

Hi. Thanks, but getContent() is not supported in Batch Apex. So, that won't work.
