Comparing Lists

Hi All,

 

Could anyone please help with the error below:

 

trigger createminutes on Event (after insert, after update)
{
List<Event> elist = [select id,Meeting_Unique_No__c from Event where Meeting_Status__c='Closed'];
List<Minute__c> milist = [select id, Meeting_Unique_No__c from Minute__c];
Set<String> eSet = new Set<String>();
Set<String> miSet = new Set<String>();

//For(string s1:elist)
{
//eSet.put(s1);    
}
//For(string s2:milist)
{
//miSet.put(s2);
}
If(miSet.containsall(eSet))
{
System.debug('');
}
else
{
System.debug('Please create notes');
}
}

 

Many thanks in advance.

What is the actually error being reported?

My guess is that it has something to do with the fact that you are trying to iterate over a list of Events but using a String for loop (s1)...


I assume you'll probably want to do:

 

for(Event e : elist){
    eSet.put(e.Meeting_Unique_No__c);
}
for(Minute__c mi : miList){
    miSet.put(mi.Meeting_Unique_No__c);
}

Error: Compile Error: Method does not exist or incorrect signature: [SET<String>].put(String) at line 10 column 1

 

Code:

 

trigger createminutes on Event (after insert, after update)
{
List<Event> elist = [select id,Meeting_Unique_No__c from Event where Meeting_Status__c='Closed'];
List<Minute__c> milist = [select id, Meeting_Unique_No__c from Minute__c];
Set<String> eSet = new Set<String>();
Set<String> miSet = new Set<String>();

For(Event e:elist)
{
eSet.put(e.Meeting_Unique_No__c);    
}
For(Minute__c mi:milist)
{
miSet.put(mi.Meeting_Unique_No__c);
}
If(miSet.containsall(eSet))
{
System.debug('');
}
else
{
System.debug('Please create Notes');
}
}

Hi All,

 

The following code is saving but the desired output is not showing:

 

trigger createminutes on Event (before insert,before update,after insert, after update)
{
List<Event> elist = [select id,Meeting_Unique_No__c from Event where Meeting_Status__c='Closed'];
List<Minute__c> milist = [select id, Meeting_Unique_No__c from Minute__c];
Set<String> eSet = new Set<String>();
Set<String> miSet = new Set<String>();

For(Event e:elist)
{
eSet.add(e.Meeting_Unique_No__c);    
}
For(Minute__c mi:milist)
{
miSet.add(mi.Meeting_Unique_No__c);
}
If(eSet.containsall(miSet))
{
system.debug('Thanks for creating Notes');
}
else
{
system.debug('Please create Notes');
}
}

 

Notes:

 

What has to happen is that on saving a record in event object, the above trigger should fire.

Each event has an unique ID - Meeting_Unique_No__c (datatype "auto number").

The same is used "Minute__c" object as well (datatype here is "text").

So when the trigger fires it lists all event records with the "Meeting_Unique_No__c"

Then it lists all minute_c records with "Meeting_Unique_No__c"

compares both the list, if they donot match, the error messages are displayed as shown above.

 

Problems:

 

1) So, now what is happening is, the error message is not being displayed, even though both lists donot match

2) This is a crude code as it is not bulkified and hence may easily hit governor limits(methinks, i may be wrong).

 

Kindly advice

 

Many thanks in advance.
