Illegal assignment from List<AggregateResult> to List<AggregateResult> #2763

@eq-dsolari

eq-dsolari commented Nov 25, 2020

The Apex Language server shows an AggregateResult type returned by a SOQL statement and then assigned to a List as an illegal assignment.

From the Apex Developer documentation this is the intended use. An AggregateResult returned from a SOQL statement can be assigned to a collection of type: AggregateResult.

I receive a warning in the Problems output in Visual Studio Code

Thanks for logging this issue . I haven't been able to repro it using the code sample you provided (screenshot below). Can you provide a sample class/trigger where you are consistently seeing this behavior ? I think it might be an issue that's specific to a certain pattern I haven't been using while trying to repro this.

Also, could you copy/paste the stack traces from the Output panel for ?

Sorry, something went wrong.

Sharing my it experience, using aggregateresult in salesforce.

The aggregate functions COUNT(fieldname) , COUNT_DISTINCT() , SUM() , AVG() , MIN() and MAX() in SOQL return an AggregateResult object or a List of AggregateResult objects. We can use aggregate functions result in apex by using AggregateResult object.

Here is an example to use AggregateResult in Salesforce. In below example I’m using COUNT(fieldname) aggregate function in SOQL to show Account record respective number of Contacts.

Illegal assignment from list to list exception in salesforce.

We cannot create a class with the names Account, Contact, Opportunity, etc. These are Standard object names. They are reserved keywords in Salesforce. So, you cannot use reserved keywords for your class names.

Illegal assignment from List<> to List<>

At line no. 7 I got "Illegal assignment from List to List" querry. But When I replace Quote sObject to Account then it works fine how?

You likely have a class or variable named "Quote", which is causing the problem, due to Name Shadowing . Use Schema.Quote instead:

You may want to refactor the Quote class; it's not ideal to use names that match standard objects, like Account and Quote, or standard libraries, like Test or Math.

You can't assign, the types are incompatible. You can use the map constructor that takes a list as argument

or if you have existing map - you can call putAll on it.
