Salesforce Certified Platform Developer II — Question 108

Choose the correct definition for <apex:pageMessage>.

Answer options

• A. Standard Salesforce formatting, throws a specific message on a page
• B. Standard Salesforce formatting, shows all errors that occur on page. Can add more messages through the "ApexPages.addMessage" function
• C. A single message, without formatting, that can be associated with a specific component on the page
• D. No formatting; displays all errors on a page

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because <apex:pageMessage> is designed to display specific messages using standard Salesforce formatting. Option B is incorrect as it describes the function of adding messages, which does not define <apex:pageMessage>. Option C misrepresents the formatting aspect, and option D does not accurately convey the purpose and formatting of <apex:pageMessage>.
