I'm looking for a way to display in a VisualForce page the records from a list, including the content of the subquery in it.
public class MyController {
public List<SObject> myList {get;set;}
/* Constructor */
public MyController() {
myList = [SELECT p.Name, p.Twitter__c, (SELECT a.Id FROM Attachments a LIMIT 1) FROM Power__c];
}
}
I'm looking to get (with the subquery) the Id of the latest Attachment, get the URL of this attachment in the VF page (with {!URLFOR($Action.Attachment.Download, '#')}
). Also, I would be interested to get a list of attachment information (if there is more than one attachment).
Any idea?

Possible Suggestion/Solution #1
Visualforce bindings are quite flexible and can work their way into related records retrieved via subqueries or related records. There is also good support for List and Map data types, for more info look here.
<apex:page controller="LatestAttachmentController" >
<apex:dataTable value="{!Records}" var="Record">
<apex:column >
<apex:facet name="header">Name</apex:facet>
<apex:outputText value="{!Record.Name}"/>
</apex:column>
<apex:column >
<apex:facet name="header">Latest Attachment Download</apex:facet>
<apex:outputText rendered="{!IF(Record.Attachments.size > 0, TRUE, FALSE)}">
<apex:outputLink value="{!URLFOR($Action.Attachment.Download, Record.Attachments[0].Id)}">Download</apex:outputLink>
<apex:outputText value="(more)" rendered="{!IF(Record.Attachments.size > 1, TRUE, FALSE)}"/>
</apex:outputText>
</apex:column>
</apex:dataTable>
</apex:page>
The controller is much the same as yours, I use an Order By to get the latest one.
public with sharing class LatestAttachmentController
{
public List<Test__c> Records {get; set;}
public LatestAttachmentController()
{
Records =
[Select Name,
(Select Id, LastModifiedDate
From Attachments
Order By LastModifiedDate DESC)
From Test__c t];
}
}
Enhancement to Show More Attachments
I thought I would go for the bonus part of the question and provide a means to show more attachments! The original subquery loaded not one but all Attachments (but not the file data of course) so in addition to indicating more attachments exist, you can also list them. Here is the extended code...
This is the extended controller to support the 'showMore' action...
public with sharing class LatestAttachmentController {
public List<Test__c> Records { get; set; }
public Id MoreRecordId {get; set; }
public Test__c MoreRecord {get; set;}
public LatestAttachmentController()
{
Records =
[Select Name,
(Select Id, Name, LastModifiedDate
From Attachments
Order By LastModifiedDate DESC)
From Test__c t
Order By Name];
}
public PageReference showMore()
{
MoreRecord = new Map<Id, Test__c>(Records).get(MoreRecordId);
return null;
}
}
This is the extended Visualforce page...
<apex:page controller="LatestAttachmentController" tabStyle="Test__c">
<apex:form >
<apex:pageBlock >
<apex:pageBlockSection title="Records">
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!Records}" var="Record">
<apex:column >
<apex:facet name="header">Name</apex:facet>
<apex:outputText value="{!Record.Name}"/>
</apex:column>
<apex:column >
<apex:facet name="header">Latest Attachment Id</apex:facet>
<apex:outputText rendered="{!IF(Record.Attachments.size > 0, TRUE, FALSE)}">
<apex:outputLink value="{!URLFOR($Action.Attachment.Download, Record.Attachments[0].Id)}">Download</apex:outputLink>
<apex:commandLink action="{!showMore}" rendered="{!IF(Record.Attachments.size > 1, TRUE, FALSE)}" value="(more)">
<apex:param name="recordId" assignTo="{!MoreRecordId}" value="{!Record.Id}"/>
</apex:commandLink>
</apex:outputText>
</apex:column>
</apex:pageBlockTable>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
</apex:pageBlock>
<apex:pageBlock id="moreattachments" rendered="{!NOT(ISNULL(MoreRecord))}">
<apex:pageBlockSection title="More Attachments - {!MoreRecord.Name}">
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!MoreRecord.Attachments}" var="Attachment">
<apex:column >
<apex:facet name="header">Name</apex:facet>
<apex:outputText value="{!Attachment.Name}"/>
</apex:column>
<apex:column >
<apex:facet name="header">Download</apex:facet>
<apex:outputLink value="{!URLFOR($Action.Attachment.Download, Attachment.Id)}">Download</apex:outputLink>
</apex:column>
</apex:pageBlockTable>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>
