Object Functions

Property values can be accessed directly or by using a generic set or get method.

  • A get function for each field in the object. For example, an Account object has a get("Name") function. This can be used instead of object.Field (for example, account.Name).
  • A set function for each field in the object. For example, an Account object has a set("Name) function. This can be used instead of object.Field = value.

For example, you can get the value of the Name field from an Account using either of these methods:

  • account.get("Name")
  • account.Name
  • account["Name"]

You can set the value of the Name field from an Account using either of these methods:

  • account.set("Name", "MyAccount");
  • account.Name = "MyAccount";
  • account["Name"]="MyAccount";
