Get Data From Visualforce Controller Extension Without SOQL Query

Biswajeet   December 21, 2017   No Comments on Get Data From Visualforce Controller Extension Without SOQL Query

When a Visualforce page is loaded, the fields accessible to the page are based on the fields referenced in the Visualforce markup. But we can use StandardController.addFields(List fieldNames) method, which adds a reference to each field specified in fieldNames so that the controller can explicitly access those fields as well.

public with sharing class AccountControllerExt {
    public Account acc {get; set;}
    
    public AccountControllerExt(ApexPages.StandardController controller) {
        List<String> accFieldList = new List<String>();
        //Passing a list of field names to the standard controller
        controller.addFields(new List<String>{'Id', 'Name', 'AccountNumber', 'Website', 'Phone','Type', 'Industry'});
        //Standard controller to retrieve the field data of the record
        acc = (Account)controller.getRecord();
    }
}

Add Fields in ApexPages.StandardController

If you want any fields value then you need add the field API name in standard controller.

public with sharing class AccountControllerExt
{
	public Account acc {get;set;}
	 
	public AccountControllerExt(ApexPages.StandardController stdController)
	{
		stdController.addFields(new List<String>{'Name', 'Region__c', 'TAX_ID_Number__c'});
		this.acc = (Account)stdController.getRecord();
	}
}

Biswajeet   January 15, 2015   No Comments on Get the List of Visualforce Pages defined with the standardController

To get the list of Visualforce Page which are defined with the standardController attribute, we can write SOQL query on ApexPage object with passing ControllerType field value Standard.

Sample SOQL:

SELECT Name, ApiVersion, ControllerKey, ControllerType, Description, NamespacePrefix, MasterLabel, CreatedDate FROM ApexPage Where ControllerType = 'Standard'
