I am fairly junior to Apex and I am tgrying to build a random number. I found this Apex code online and saved it successfully in my Sandbox.
public with sharing class RandomNumberGenerator {
public static String generateRandomNumber() {
String randomNumber = generate();
if (randomNumber.length() < 6) {
String randomNumber2 = generate();
randomNumber = randomNumber + randomNumber2.substring(0, 10 - randomNumber.length());
}
return randomNumber;
}
public static String generateIdentifier(String prefix) {
return prefix + '-' + generateRandomNumber();
}
private static String generate() {
return String.valueOf(Math.abs(Crypto.getRandomInteger()));
}
}
I have a number field labeled
BIOS_Password__c on the asset object. How do I get this Apex class to populate this field on creation of the asset? Any help is much appreciated.Thanks,AaronYou'll need to put it into a trigger. Something like: trigger AddBIOSPassword on Asset (before insert)
{
for (Asset ast : Trigger.new) {
ast.BIOS_Password__c=RandomNumberGenerator.generateRandomNumber();
}
}
