Problem :- How can I display a table of records with a check box and then process only the records that are selected?
Solution:- Wrapper class.
A wrapper or container class is a class, data structure, or an abstract data type whose instances are a collections of other objects.It is a custom object defined by Salesforce developer where he defines the properties of the wrapper class. Within Apex & Visualforce this can be extremely helpful to achieve many business scenarios within the Salesforce CRM software.
Using Wrapper classes we can have the ability to check few records from the displayed list and process them for some action
public with sharing class WrapperDemoController {
public List<AccountWrapper> listAccountWrapper {get; set;}
public List<Account> selectedAccounts{get;set;}
public WrapperDemoController ()
{
listAccountWrapper = new List<AccountWrapper>();
searchRecord();
}
public void searchRecord()
{
listAccountWrapper.clear();
for(Account a: [select Id, Name,BillingState, Website, Phone ,Active__c from Account limit 10])
{
listAccountWrapper.add(new AccountWrapper(a));
}
}
public void processSelected()
{
selectedAccounts = new List<Account>();
selectedAccounts.clear();
for(AccountWrapper wrapAccountObj : listAccountWrapper)
{
if(wrapAccountObj.selected == true)
{
selectedAccounts.add(wrapAccountObj.acc);
}
}
}
public void ActivateData()
{
for(Account acc : selectedAccounts )
{
acc.Active__c ='Yes';
}
update selectedAccounts ;
searchRecord();
}
public void DeActivateData()
{
for(Account acc : selectedAccounts )
{
acc.Active__c ='No';
}
update selectedAccounts ;
searchRecord();
}
// This is our wrapper/container class.
public class AccountWrapper
{
public Account acc {get; set;}
public Boolean selected {get; set;}
public AccountWrapper(Account a)
{
acc = a;
selected = false;
}
}
}
If we have such kind of scenrio when we have to expose list of records from controller to VF page and that list contains different set of fields values from several objects. To achieve this scenrio, we create a wrapper class in our controller or we can say a inner class, In that inner class, we form a list of records with different fields from different objects and expose that list on vf page.
A wrapper class (is an apex class that you create) that allows you to programmatically extend an sobject (for example) with additional properties without having to create fields on the actual object itself. For example, it is useful when displaying selectable records on visualforce pages as it allows you to add boolean property called 'Selected' in the objects wrapper class where you want to capture which record the user has selected. It is good practise to always use them in visualforce pages as it makes it easier to extend at a later without having to go through and update all your references to the sobject.
There are to many post available on Google for Wrapper classes. Please check below post. I hope that will help you
