apex:repeat all fields from Object

Hello.

I would like to render all fields in a VF page and I think the repeat function might be the easiest.
<apex:repeat value="{!$ObjectType.Account.Fields.}" var="f">
            <apex:outputfield value="{!Account[f]}"> 
            </apex:outputfield>
        </apex:repeat>
I am missing the last bit though. Is that achievable, or would it need a class that gets all fields and then the repeat function referencing it?

Thanks!

Hi Tobias Hagge

setup>customize>account>fieldset>new>
give the name and description
and drag fields that you want and save it.

Then write thiscode 

  <apex:repeat value="{!$ObjectType.task.Account.fieldsetname}" var="f">                                          
                                        <apex:inputfield value="{!Account[f]}" />
     </apex:repeat> 

Will work

Hi,
I suggest you to create a field set in account and add all the fields that you want to use in this VF.
Then this is the code of your VF

<apex:page>
<apex:repeat value="{!$ObjectType.Account.FieldSets.FieldSetName}" var="f">
<apex:outputText>{!f.Label}</apex:outputText>    
</apex:repeat>
</apex:page> 

Hope this helps
Jerome

The problem for that is that I want to have every single field to be in there (no exception) and this are over 300. Also I would not have to add fields manually to the field set every time I create a new field.

Then you'll have to do it with Apex,

SObjectType accountType = Schema.getGlobalDescribe().get('Account');
Map<String,Schema.SObjectField> mfields = accountType.getDescribe().fields.getMap();

Gives the following error message:
 
SObject row was retrieved via SOQL without querying the requested field: Account.Account_ID__c

Account_ID__c is a custom formula field. I assume that the function has a general problem with formula fields? Is there a good way to exclude the formula field type from the expression?

Thanks

can you share your code.
what do you want to display in your VF in the end ? the list of fields of Account Object ?

List<String> AccountFields {get; set;}

AccountFields = new List<String>();
Map<String, Schema.SObjectField> schemaFieldMap = Schema.SObjectType.Account.fields.getMap();
for(String MyFieldName : schemaFieldMap.keyset()){
     AccountFields.add(MyFieldName);
}

then you use this list in you VF, with
<apex:repeat value="{!AccountFields}" var="field">
     <apex:outputText value="{!field}"/><br></br>
</apex:repeat>

Thanks for the help. Hopefully we can find a fix.
 
public Map<String, Schema.SObjectField> all_fields {get; set;}

all_fields = getFields();

    public List<String> getFields()
    {
		Map<String,Schema.SObjectField> mfields = accountType.getDescribe().fields.getMap();
		List<String> fieldNames = List<String>();
		
    	for(String field: mfields.keySet())
        {
            fieldNames.add(field);
        }
                    
        return fieldNames;
    }
