Background
I have a list of sObjects I need to insert, but I must first check if the insert will be successful. So, I'm setting a database save point before performing the insert and checking the save results (for the insert statement). Because, I don't want to process if any errors occurred, if there were any errors in the insert results, the database is rolled back to the save point.
Problem & Question
I need to collect the errors for each save (insert) result and associate each error to the specific sObject record that caused the error. According to the documentation Save results contain a list of errors, the Salesforce ID of the record inserted (if successful), and a success indicator (boolean).
How do I associate the Save Result to the original sObject record inserted?
Code/Example
Here's an example I put together that demonstrates the concept. The example is flawed, in that the InsertResults
don't always match the sObjectsToInsert
. It's not exactly the code I'm using in my custom class, but it uses the same logic.
Map<Id,sObject> sObjectsToInsert; // this variable is set previously in the code
List<Database.SaveResult> InsertResults;
Map<String,sObject> ErrorMessages = new Map<String,sObject>();
System.SavePoint sp = Database.setSavepoint();
// 2nd parameter must be false to get all errors, if there are errors
// (allow partial successes)
InsertResults = Database.insert(sObjectsToInsert.values(), false);
for(Integer i=0; i < InsertResults.size(); i++)
{
// This method does not guarantee the save result (ir) matches the sObject
// I need to make sure the insert result matches
Database.SaveResult ir = InsertResults[i];
sObject s = sObjectsToInsert.values()[i];
String em = null; // error message
Integer e = 0; // errors
if(!ir.isSuccess())
{
system.debug('Not Successful');
e++;
for(Database.Error dbe : ir.getErrors()) { em += dbe.getMessage()+' '; }
ErrorMessages.put(em, s);
}
}
if(e > 0)
{
database.rollback(sp);
// log all errors in the ErrorMessages Map
}
