Overload Apex Class to be Controller AND Extension

July 24, 2009 by David Schach 2 Comments

Coding the new premium version of Mass Update Contacts (details to come), I replaced the two parts of the page with Apex Components. This will allow the app to support custom address fields and international address formats. I didn't want to write one ControllerExtension for the main page, a CustomController for the view section component, and another CustomController for the pageblocktable component. So here is the overloaded class constructor. Note that this works because an extension passes the StandardController to the constructor, and a CustomController passes nothing:

Email Inbox Version 2

July 15, 2009 by David Schach 1 Comment

Well, it took about ten minutes from the release of Email Inbox Version 1 for people to request additional features, screenshots, etc. Version 2 includes some neat icons, and this post has the multiple-times-requested screenshots we promised. First, a teaser screenshot. (There's a better one below the code.) Here's the updated Visualforce code: The Apex […]

Visualforce Email Inbox

July 14, 2009 by David Schach 4 Comments

Sonny Cloward, SysAd at Rainforest Alliance, approached us about writing a Visualforce page to display all incoming emails for a given Case Queue. This led to quite a few interesting discoveries. Here's how we handled the project:

Ubiquity Plugin for developer.force.com

February 5, 2009 by David Schach 4 Comments

Inspired by Gina Tripani’s release of a Ubiquity plug-in to search Lifehacker via Google, I used her code as a base (thanks, Gina) and created a Ubiquity plug-in to search developer.force.com.

Project: Change Owner Button in Visualforce

November 13, 2008 by David Schach 7 Comments

Drawing upon some code I found in the Developers Guide, I have written a Visualforce page to mass-change the owner of all selected records to any active User in Salesforce. Yes, it only works with Contacts for now, but my next step will be to use Dynamic Apex to pass the sObject name to the page and its extension/controller, allowing me to reuse one bit of code for multiple objects. We'll see how it goes. But in the meantime, enjoy this page that lets you perform a search, check which records you want to transfer, and then input a User. I've tested it with 50 records at once, so that should suffice for most uses.

Project: Lookup to Picklist

November 11, 2008 by David Schach Leave a Comment

In the first installment of post-Dreamforce projects, I present a mechanism to present the user with all available Lookup options in a picklist. This should simplify some Visualforce pages. (Credit to the Developers Guide from the new post-Dreamforce Library.) The key to the code is the ability to customize the SOQL statement to focus as […]
