Method Details ​

containsKey ​

apex
global override Boolean containsKey(String name)

Checks if the map contains a key with namespace handling enabled by default.

Parameters:

  • name (String) - The key to check.

Returns: Boolean - true if the key exists, false otherwise.

Example:

apex
Boolean result = instance.containsKey('myName');

containsKey ​

apex
global override Boolean containsKey(String name, Boolean implyNamespace)

Checks if the map contains a key with optional namespace handling.

System.debug(objType?.getDescribe().name); // Outputs: Account

keySet ​

apex
global override Set<String> keySet()

Returns the key set of the map with namespace handling disabled by default.

Returns: String - A set of keys in the map.

Since: 1.0

Example:

apex
Set<String> result = instance.keySet();

keySet ​

apex
global override Set<String> keySet(Boolean implyNamespace)
