Model in Model View Controller

Question

I came across multiple choice for sample exam But was not sure whether Custom Component comes under Model in MVC ? Choose two

Options were

1. Custom Object

2. Custom Component

3. Apex

4. Controller Extension

Answer 1

The correct answers are Custom Object and Apex, assuming that by Apex the writer behind the question meant the Apex properties inside controllers and extensions.

I won't bore you with what you can already find on Wikipedia about MVC, so on to Salesforce!

• Visualforce pages and components are views
• Apex controllers and extensions are all considered controllers
• Your Sobject classes (e.g., OpportunityLineItem, AccountTeamMember) are the models. A model represents all the data transmitted between the page/component and the controller/extensions via properties.

Answer 2

I would say that Custom Object and Custom Component are the correct answers. Apex and Controller Extension are Controllers.
