SOQL Quick Question

I have the following 3 custom objects

Parent
Child
GrandChild

GrandChild has a lookup relationship with Child.
Child has a MD relationship with Parent (Parent is Master)

Objective : I want to traverse from grandchild to parent.

select gc.name,c.name,p.name
from grandchild__c g,  g.child__r c,   c.parent__r p

I am getting sample output like below

Name                child__r.Name                      child__r.parent__r.Name
"Test GC"         "Test C"                                   [object Object]

Can anyone tell me why am I getting "[object Object]" instead of the parent's name ???

can u post ur original code or query???
SRKSRK

Intresting..... So do you look what is the body of this Object is 

like you say that child__r.parent__r.Name return you [object Object] then this object must have some body like a wrapper

beacus as per my understnanding it must return you an string only

select gc.name,c.name,p.name
from grandchild__c gc,gc.child__r c,c.parent__r p

Hi Subramani,SRK,

Plz take a look at the screenshot and the query and let me know if you need anything.

From the SFDC doc (as of V27.0):



In each specified relationship, only one level of parent-to-child relationship can be specified in a query. For example, if the FROM clause specifies Account, the SELECT clause can only specify the Contact or other objects at that level. It could not specify a child object of Contact.

Hi

I tried doing from grandchild to child to parent relationship also but still nothing..but i get [Object Object] only :(

select grandchild__c.id,grandchild__c.name,grandchild__c.child__r.name,grandchild__c.child__r.parent__r.column1__c
from grandchild__c

Also I agree that we have one level traversal when we move from parent to child though.

did you try the same SOQL in  in Apex and system.debug ??
Nurav1982Nurav1982
Yes
System.debug([select id,name,grandchild__c.child__r.name,grandchild__c.child__r.parent__r.name from grandchild__c]);

Output
15:50:46:072 USER_DEBUG [1]|DEBUG|(GrandChild__c:{Name=TEST lookup, Id=a0G9000000EOWQREA5, Child__c=a099000000NZeC5AAL})

Still no parent name

And if i do it like this what it shows

List<grandchild__c> TempLst = [select id,name,grandchild__c.child__r.name,grandchild__c.child__r.parent__r.name from grandchild__c];

System.debug('#@!#@#!@#!@$@#@#'+TempLst[0].child__r.name);
System.debug('#@!#@#!@#!@$@#@#'+TempLst[0].grandchild__c.child__r.parent__c);
System.debug('#@!#@#!@#!@$@#@#'+TempLst[0].grandchild__c.child__r.parent__r.name);
