Debugging confusion for beginner in salesforce

Question

Hi I am a beginner on Salesforce.com Platform

I've written an Apex class:

public class FieldSetDemonstration {

public Resource__c merch { get; set; }

public FieldSetDemonstration() {
    this.merch = getMerchandise();
}

public List<Schema.FieldSetMember> getFields() {
    return SObjectType.Resource__c.FieldSets.Hello2.getFields();
}

private Resource__c getMerchandise() {
    String query = 'SELECT ';
    for(Schema.FieldSetMember f : this.getFields()) {
        query += f.getFieldPath() + ', ';
    }
    query += 'Id  FROM Resource__c LIMIT 1';
    System.debug('Hello world debug log');
    Resource__c res= Database.query(query);
    System.debug('Hello World Debug log'+''+res.name);
    return res;
}
}

this is a controller class in the visualforce page controller giving the right res.name value but in debug console i am getting only Hello world Debug log. Can any one please tell why its not showing res.name value in debug console. How to show it for debugging purposes?

Answer 1

ok finally i found instead of using res.name in System.debug() i have to use res.get('Name')

public class FieldSetDemonstration {

public Resource__c merch { get; set; }

public FieldSetDemonstration() { this.merch = getMerchandise(); }

public List getFields() { return SObjectType.Resource__c.FieldSets.Hello2.getFields(); }

private Resource_c getMerchandise() { String query = 'SELECT '; for(Schema.FieldSetMember f : this.getFields()) { query += f.getFieldPath() + ', '; } query += 'Id FROM Resource_c LIMIT 1'; System.debug('Hello world debug log'); Resource__c res= Database.query(query); System.debug('Hello World Debug log'+''+res.get('Name')); return res; } }

this code is working fine
