Hi, I am trying to create a trigger to start an approval process after insert if a certain field is checked - we are getting this save error: 'Expression cannot be assigned'

 

 

MDFSubmitForApproval on MDF__c (after insert) {

for (MDF__c a : trigger.new) {


if (MDF__c.Submitted__c = 'true') {


Approval.ProcessSubmitRequest app = new Approval.ProcessSubmitRequest();app.setObjectId(a.id);
Approval.ProcessResult result = Approval.process(app);
}
}
}

 

Not sure where we are going wrong with this?  Any help much appreciated.

<apex:page controller="exampleCon" cache="false">
  <apex:dataTable value="{!contacts}" var="c" id="theTable" rowClasses="odd,even" styleClass="tableClass">

        <apex:column><apex:facet name="header">Name</apex:facet>
            <apex:outputText value="-{!c.Name}"/>
        </apex:column>

        <apex:column>
            <apex:facet name="header">Phone</apex:facet>
            <apex:outputText value="-{!c.Phone}"/>

        </apex:column>

    </apex:dataTable>

</apex:page>


And my controller:

public class exampleCon {

    List<Contact> contacts;

    public List<Contact> getcontacts() {
        contacts = [select Name, Phone from Contact limit 10];     
        return contacts;
    }
}

Hi All,

 Is the value of code coverage given by "Estimate your organization's code coverage" represents the complete code coverage of the org ? It seems that percentage shown is only for the classes which have at least more than 0% code coverage.

7 days behind todays 12:00 am.

How can we make salesforce to send the user creation email to user when we create a user from apex code.

I could send the Reset Password mail using System.ReSetPassword method.

im getting a http response in the form of JSON array,, is there any support for parsing it in apex class.

I have a some apex classes which i want to install as a package to a another org.

And there are some custom fields which are reffered by these classes.

They already exist in the org which i'm going to install the package.

So when i try to install it gives a duplicate error.

Is there any way to remove these custom fields from the package or overwrite the existing fileds.

So here's the thing, I realize that salesforce does not support the running of getContentAsPDF from a trigger -- which consiquently, is a royal pain. That said, I decided to embark on a journey to accomplish the task anyway. I've gone a bit into it, and had some success, but wanted to share with some other apex coders that are more versed than I the result, hoping to see if anyone can lend some extra ideas/insight to accomplish this.

 

Thus far, I've been able to actually run the getcontentasPDF as the reslt of a trigger, however, I've been stonewalled in that the returned document is blank (it's a PDF with nothing in it). I've tried it two different ways, and have gotten the same result (blank PDF). So my question is, any ideas on how to make it so the returned PDF is not blank (when you view the VF page normally, it shows properly) or am I stuck?

 

The two ways I am able to run getContentAsPDF:

 

1) When the trigger runs, I have a class that has a function that runs the getContentAsPDF function as a @future method. This works but has the issue of returning a blank pdf.

 

2) Thinking that was their systems way of blocking it, I decided to do a more convoluted and tricky route. The second method is from the trigger I call a visualforce page that has an autorun function that calls getContentAsPDF. This also works successfully, but again, the returned PDF is blank.

 

Any one have any ideas as to why the PDF may be turning up blank?

 

Thanks for any input!

When I render a vf page normally with Chinese characters on it, everything works fine.  If I attempt to render it as a PDF however, the Chinese characters are skipped.
 
The challenge here is that we are rolled out globally, with hundreds of users in China.  A number of accounts and contacts are entered in Chinese. 
 
page rendered as HTML:
 
 
 
page rendered as PDF, missing the Account Name:
 
 
 
 
Is there any way to support multi-character sets when rendering to a PDF?
