Task Based Trigger

Hi, 

 

    A scenario is i am receiving values like below in text field at opp. line level for 7 products

 

      Qty 7 (2010-11-14)   or Qty 5 (2010-11-14)  Qty 2 (2010-11-14)  or Qty 4 (2010-11-14) Qty 2 (2010-11-14) Qty 1(2010-11-14)

 

   [ number of receiving date are vary so i am not sure that we can use workflow or not ]

 

 So, i wrote a trigger for that :

 

 

 

trigger OppotunityProductFulfillmentDateTrigger on OpportunityLineItem (before update) {
  
    // list<opportunityLineItem> lineItems = Trigger.new;
     
     user  u = [select username from user where lastname = 'view'];
     
     
    for (opportunityLineItem line : trigger.new)
    {
         if (line.Delivery_Details__c != NULL && (trigger.oldmap.get(line.id).Delivery_Details__c!= line.Delivery_Details__c))
         {
       
         Integer len = line.Delivery_Details__c.length();
        
         string s = line.Delivery_Details__c;
        
            String[] s1 = s.split('\\(');
            
            for(Integer i=1;i<=s1.size();i=i+2)
         {    
         s1[i]=s1[i].replace('\\)','');         
         task t= new task();
         t.subject='Training Required';
         t.ownerid= u.id;
         t.status='In Progress';
         t.priority='high';
         t.ActivityDate = date.valueof(s1[i].substring(0,10));
         t.whatid=line.OpportunityID;
          //  t.description+=s1[i].substring(0,10);
         insert t;
        
         }
    
         }
    }
    
    
It work fine when text field has one date say Qty 5  (2010-11-14). But it the value is  Qty2(2010-12-11) Qty3(2010-12-14)
it throw following error
OppotunityProductFulfillmentDateTrigger: execution of BeforeUpdate

caused by: System.ListException: List index out of bounds: 3

Trigger.OppotunityProductFulfillmentDateTrigger: line 21, column 14
I am not sure abt. this error.
Appreciate your response.

Hi Thanks for that,

 

     And really sorry for using variable name like this.

 

      As per logic i have to use index '1' instead of  '0'. so i < s1.size()-1 satisfied the requirement.

 

      Again very thankful for replying.

 

Thanks,

Dhairya

Apex uses 0-indexed arrays.  You are starting at 1.  Seems like your loop should be more like

 

for(Integer i=0;i<s1.size();i++)

 

And as an aside you should probably use more descriptive variable names when you're doing stuff like this, otherwise it becomes hard to read very quickly.
