FieldSetMember Class
Namespace
Usage
Use the methods in the Schema.FieldSetMember class to get
details about fields contained within a field set, such as the field
label, type, a dynamic SOQL-ready field path, and so on. The following
example shows how to get a collection of field set member describe
result objects for a specific field set on an sObject:
1List<Schema.FieldSetMember> fields =
2 Schema.SObjectType.Account.fieldSets.getMap().get('field_set_name').getFields();If you know the name of the field
set in advance, you can access its fields more directly using an explicit
reference to the field set:
1List<Schema.FieldSetMember> fields =
2 Schema.SObjectType.Account.fieldSets.field_set_name.getFields();FieldSetMember Methods
