Is there a way you can create/set the Id field of a new SObject before performing an insert DML statement?

I know you can set it to an existing Id like this:

SObject s = Database.query('Select Id from account limit 1')[0].getSObjectType().newSObject([SELECT Id FROM Account LIMIT 1][0].id);

But is there a way to set it for a newly created SObject?

I need to create a few objects, retrieve their Ids and then send them to another system via a web service callout. I cannot issue a web service callout after the DML statement (without using @future call), so I'm trying to get the Ids and send them before actually making the insert DML statements

Any help would be appreciated, even it if it's "You can't do that."

Thanks,

I'm trying to write some validation code for a contact object. I'd like to be able to access different class variables by running through a for loop and validating each variable without having to write out each one.

Below is some sample code:

public class ContactRecord {
    public String FirstName;
    public String LastName;
    public String Phone;
    public String Email;
}

public static ErrorEntry[] validateContact(ContactRecord contact) {
    ErrorEntry[] errors = new ErrorEntry[]{};
    
    Set<String> reqParams = new Set<String>{'FirstName', 'LastName', 'Email', 'Phone'};
    for (String reqParam : reqParams) {
       if (contact.[reqParam] == null) {
           // log error
       }
    }
    
    return errors;
}

I'm using Apex classes with the "with sharing" enabled.

I have an Event SObject in the variable "event" that is at least viewable by a user. 

How do I check whether that record can be updated without attempting to do a "update event" call and catching the exception?

I have a series of callouts that need to be performed to update an external system, but I only want to do those callouts if the current Event record is writeable.

Thanks,

I have a VF page in a new section of the Event Detail Page Layout. I would like to get the retURL parameter (and another custom parameter) of the parent page from within the VF page, but that does not seem to be possible.

I realize that due cross-domain Javascript security issues this is normally not allowed, but was wondering if there was a way around this in Salesforce. Salesforce does provide me the Id parameter from the parent.

Thanks,

Is there a way to have a managed package provide an Email Template that can then be modified be a Standard User?

I realized the the template can be edited using the Send Email interface during the process of sending the email, but I'd like to the user to be able to save edits to an email template where the emails are sent via Apex and not using the standard Send Email interface.

Any help would be appreciated.

       }
    }
    
    return errors;
}

I've been struggling to find an answer to a pretty simple question:

Can Apex Code that makes callouts to external web services be installable in PE?

Apex would be a part of managed certified package.

Hi, ForceIDE is listed in the catalog of Pulse (www.poweredbypulse.com). The ForceIDE update site recently had an upgrade and as part of that process some of the metadata became incorrectly updated. The main problem is the size of some of your artifacts does not correspond to the actual artifact sizes

 osgi.bundle,com.salesforce.id

 com.salesforce.ide.branding

 org.eclipse.update.feature,com.salesforce.ide.feature

We wanted to report the problem here to see if the site could please be upated. 

Thanks in advance!
