window.opener.$A syntax gives - permission denied to access property "$A" error

Problem statement:
When we try to access the 'window.opener.$A' property of lightning component present in the parent from a javascript snippet present in a child window (Visual force page) we get the error 'Permission denied to access property "$A"'

Task:
We intend to open a child window on click of a button present in a lightning component. The child window would present the user with certain selectable data. Once the user selects certain row, and clicks submit, the row data(obtained by the child window using callouts) has to be returned to the parent lightning component/App which opened the child window(containing VF page).

Activities completed:

We created a 'Application' level global access event named as 'ICDCodeSelected' (Syntax for which is as follows), which we want to utilize to pass data from child window to parent window's lightning component.

<aura:event type="APPLICATION" description="Event template" access="global">
    <aura:attribute name='CODE' type='String'/>
    <aura:attribute name='DESCRIPTION' type='String'/>
</aura:event>

As per mentioned in SF documentation(https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.lightning.meta/lightning/events_external.htm), we have added following code snippet to our Visualforce Page javascript which is as follows:

var myExternalEvent;
if(window.opener.$A && (myExternalEvent = window.opener.$A.get("e.c:ICDCodeSelected"))) {
    myExternalEvent.setParams({CODE:'M84.3',DESCRIPTION:'Home visit for the evaluation and management of a new pat..'});
    myExternalEvent.fire();
}

Note :
Please note that the error appears for 'window.opener.$A' only, when we include the lightning dependency application/component inside the VF page (child window) using lightning out, we can access the $A component ad hence can get the Event to fire it, but it fires only in the context of the child window, and their is not update on the parent lightning page.

Your inputs/comments/suggestions on the above issue resolutions would be pretty helpful for us.

Thanks

Turn off compatibility mode in IE9 programatically

Hi,

I have a requirement, under which I want to turn off the compatibility mode of IE9, so that when my visualforce page loads, the page displays in IE9 with compatibility mode off.

I investigated on achieving the task, and found that the following tag could be used inside the HTML header to turn off the compatibility mode

TAG :<head><meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"/></head>

But the problem is,

1)The tag is added to the header only if the 'showHeader' for the VF page is false

2)Even after adding the tag to the HTML header, by turning the 'showHeader' property of the page to 'true' the compatibility mode is not turned off for IE9

Any pointers on this issue would be of great help.

User Context for batchable classes

Hi,

I have a APEX class that implements the Database.batchable Interface.As per my knowledge the batch jobs run in system context, and are not limited by the sharing rules.

I wanted to know that, if a class implements the Database.batchable Interface then, is the constructor of this class run in system context or or not.

Any pointers on the same would be of great help.

Thanks

Is their any functionality parallel to 'runAs' available in apex classes

Hi.

I read the documentation for the ''runes'' method, and found that the method 'runes' can only be used in a test method.

I wanted to implement the same 'runes' functionality in the normal APEX class. That is , I wanted to execute certain block of code according to the user context specifid by me in the code.

So is this possible in normal APEX class? if yes then how can this be implemented.

Any pointers regarding this issue would be of great help.

Error 'sObject type 'Organization' is not supported. '

Hi,

I have encountered the Error 'sObject type Organization is not supported' .I investigated and found that the profile must have 'View All Data' permission to access the object.

I want to understand that is it possible to avoid the error on the 'Organization' object without giving the 'View All Data' permission to the profile or without removing the 'with Sharing' keyword from the class for which the error arises

Any pointers on the same would be of great help. Thanks in Advance.

Grouping contents in Salesforce Reports on basis of date .

Hi,

I wanted to filter the Salesforce report on basis of date ( suppose created date), so that the manual filtering through 'Time Frame' legend be avoided. I thought of using 'bucket filter' to accomplish the task but found that bucket filters cannot be applied for time,time/date formats.

So the question is that, is their any other way to accomplish the grouping of records in Salesforce Reports on basis of date without using the Salesforce 'Time Frame' legend ?

Any pointers on the same would be of great help. Thanks in advance.

Generation of Report that would show advanced/Regressed opportunities in given time period.

Hi,

I am trying to generate a custom report that would display opportunities in stage Value Proposition that have advanced(Their stage has increased in comparison to their prior stage.) or regressed (Their stage has decreased in comparison to their prior stage) for a given time interval.

I found a formula to obtain the regressed opportunities as follows:

OR(Amount < PRIORVALUE(Amount), Probability < PRIORVALUE(Probability), CloseDate > PRIORVALUE(CloseDate),CASE( StageName ,

"Prospecting",1,

"Qualification",2,

"Needs Analysis",3,

"Value Proposition",4,

"Id. Decision Makers",5,

"Perception Analysis",6,

"Proposal/Price Quote",7,

"Negotiation/Review",8,

"Closed Won",9,

"Closed Lost",9,0)

CASE(PRIORVALUE(StageName) ,

"Prospecting",1,

"Qualification",2,

"Needs Analysis",3,

"Value Proposition",4,

"Id. Decision Makers",5,

"Perception Analysis",6,

"Proposal/Price Quote",7,

"Negotiation/Review",8,

"Closed Won",9,

"Closed Lost",9,0))

I used this formula in the add formula section in Left side bar in a Summary report type, but it doesn't allow saving this formula.

Since this is not working so any pointers to achieve the above mentioned task would be of great help.

Thanks in advance.
