How to validate if the field is visible?

The page of Field-Level Security for profile shows if fields are visible. My question is how we validate this field's visibility. API has isCreatable(), isFilterable(), isNillable() and isUpdateable() for Field.

Thanks for any of help.

You have to look at the layout, see describeLayout

I tried to call describeLayout("product") but got the exception of "sObject type 'Product' is not supported in describeLayout". Other types such as "account" and "contact" work fine.

Thanks.

try product2, product is legacy and only there for backwards compat.
