Exception Handling and Error Codes
An exception is thrown when something goes wrong when executing a request. The exception will contain an error code and may also contain a short description which will help you understand what went wrong during the request. There are many reasons an exception may occur, below are some common reasons:
-
Your code expects a value from a field that is currently null
-
An insert or update statement fails to pass a validation rule
-
Assigning a query that returns no records
-
Accessing a list index that is out of bounds
