I have this trigger on a custom object
trigger mytrigger on Merchandise__c (after insert) {
merchandise__c m = [select name from merchandise__c where id =:trigger.new[0].id];
m.name = 'hi';
delete m;
}
As per this documentation,above should have given a run time error Link: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_triggers.htm
Additionally, if you update or delete a record in its before trigger, or delete a record in its after trigger, you will receive a runtime error. This includes both direct and indirect operations. For example, if you update account A, and the before update trigger of account A inserts contact B, and the after insert trigger of contact B queries for account A and updates it using the DML update statement or database method, then you are indirectly updating account A in its before trigger, and you will receive a runtime error
Here i am deleting the record in an after insert and when i try creating a record from standard UI and save it doesnt give me run time error but below message
Record deleted
The record you attempted to access has been deleted. The user who deleted this record may be able to recover it from the Recycle Bin. Deleted data is stored in the Recycle Bin for 15 days.
Can see record simply gets deleted ,no run time error Now my query is ,documentation is not correct? or are they talking about a completely different thing?
