Type casting SObjectField to 'String' throws errors for non-string field types #495
Comments
Would love to have some feedback on this and the PR. Thanks, |
Apologies for the delay. I am DF24 and I am planning to get into this when I get back. |
😄 I had a feeling that everyone was busy with DF24. Wish I was there too! Enjoy, no worries we can talk more next week. Have a great DF24 and a nice weekend! |
Any chance we can look into this together? There are also some other discussions that would be nice to have feedback on. Thanks! |
I'm sorry to keep pushing but aside from this Issue I would like to have other discussions and proposals/questions but it looks like nobody is actually following this repo anymore. I know everyone is involved in something and busy with work and life and all but this library is something so valuable for (I guess) so many people and companies that it would be really disappointing if it wouldn't be maintained anymore. Thank you very much and sorry for tagging as many of you as I could find: |
G'day @cnwork -- Apologies for the delay. You are correct in saying that "...everyone is involved something and busy with work and life" but I have time coming up soon to focus on this and other questions with AEP/FFLIB that have been stacking up. I will look into this one this weekend and get you some feedback. |
Describe the bug
In the
fflib_SObjects
class, all these methods:are type casting SObjectFields to String. This is fine for all the field types that can be casted to String. However, type casting the number types to a String as all the above methods are doing:
(String) record.get(field)
throws errors likeInvalid conversion from runtime type Integer to String
, orInvalid conversion from runtime type Decimal to String
To Reproduce
Modify the
generateDomain
method from thefflib_SObjectsTest
class to include in the Accounts theNumberOfEmployees
field with a random Integer value and then run the entire test class. The tests for all the above methods will now fail.Steps to reproduce the behavior:
fflib_SObjectsTest.cls
to include theNumberOfEmployees
field with an interger value to one or more of the new Accounts and deploy the changesSystem.TypeException: Invalid conversion from runtime type Integer to String
Expected behavior
When the above methods are called for any field no matter its type, they correctly return the promised values or records.
Screenshots and text of error observed
Example of modified
generateDomain
method:and the error for one of the existing tests (more are needed to be added to show the extent of the failures)
