Question

This is a relatively straight forward question but one that has me stumped. In apex I am creating a new list of sObjects (see below):

public static sobjectPartnerSoapSforceCom.sObject_x[] retrieve(String fieldList, String sObjectType, String[] ids, String username, String password)

When I try to create a new sobjectPartnerSoapSforceCom.sObject_x I cant figure out how to pass the required parameters to the retrieve(…).

For example one of my attempts:
ListsObjectList = new List (‘id’, ‘Contact’, contactSobjectId , ‘blah’, ‘blah’) ;

throws an error with “expecting right parenthesis, found ‘,’.

How can I pass the required parameters to perform the retrieve statement?
Any help appreciated.

Answer 1

The first parameter to retrieve is a String, so your field list should probably be:

String fieldList = 'id, Contact, contactSobjectId , blah, blah';

Then you make an array of Strings for the contact IDs you want:

List<String> ids = new List<String> { 'contactId1', 'contactId2' };

Then make the retrieve call:

soapBinding.retrieve(fieldList, 'Contact', ids, '[e-mail]', 'thepassword');
