Shanmuga Prasath Pushpanathan showing the custom object picklist value in a standard controller Visualforce page
I have implemented the below code which is working fine, but client want simpler code without cmplexity like using the inputfield tag
Controller :
public String selectedpicklistvalue{get; set;}
public List<selectOption> getpicklistvalue() {
List<SelectOption> picklistvalue= new List<SelectOption>();
Schema.DescribeFieldResult picklistvalueResult = customobject__c.picklist_field__c.getDescribe();
List<Schema.PicklistEntry> replace = picklistvalueResult .getPicklistValues();
picklistvalue.add(new SelectOption('',label.None_for_Picklist));
for( Schema.PicklistEntry r : replace) {
picklistvalue.add(new SelectOption(r.getLabel(), r.getValue()));
}
return picklistvalue;
}
VF page :
<apex:selectList id="selectedpicklistvalue" value="{!selectedpicklistvalue}" label="Picklist Value" size="1">
<apex:selectOptions value="{!picklistvalue}">
</apex:selectOptions>
</apex:selectList>
Controller :
public String selectedpicklistvalue{get; set;}
public List<selectOption> getpicklistvalue() {
List<SelectOption> picklistvalue= new List<SelectOption>();
Schema.DescribeFieldResult picklistvalueResult = customobject__c.picklist_field__c.getDescribe();
List<Schema.PicklistEntry> replace = picklistvalueResult .getPicklistValues();
picklistvalue.add(new SelectOption('',label.None_for_Picklist));
for( Schema.PicklistEntry r : replace) {
picklistvalue.add(new SelectOption(r.getLabel(), r.getValue()));
}
return picklistvalue;
}
VF page :
<apex:selectList id="selectedpicklistvalue" value="{!selectedpicklistvalue}" label="Picklist Value" size="1">
<apex:selectOptions value="{!picklistvalue}">
</apex:selectOptions>
</apex:selectList>
Greetings to you!
The easiest way to display an SObject field that is of type picklist is:
<apex:inputField value="{!Customobject__c.Picklist_field__c}"/>The framework will recognize that it is a picklist field and render a select list and the options defined for the field automatically without you having to do any more work. It is only necessary to use apex:selectOptions or apex:selectOption if you want to build the options list yourself.

Thanks for the quick response
Yes, You are right for the scenerio which I have mentioned above, but the thing is I have to get the selected picklist value in the controller and map it to other object.
Note : As this is a Standard controller for case object, I'm not sure how to get the selected custom object's picklist value to the controller.
