== Why is this an issue?

An Apex trigger may be called with a batch of records. This for example happens when a bulk DML is executed. All records provided by the triggers should be processed.


This rule raises an issue when specific records from the ``++Trigger++`` are referenced, i.e. when it finds one of the following patterns:

* ``++Trigger.new[x]++``
* ``++Trigger.old[x]++``
* ``++Trigger.oldmap.get(x)++``
* ``++Trigger.newmap.get(x)++``

where ``++x++`` is a hardcoded number.


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,apex]
----
trigger CaseTrigger on Case (before insert, before update) {

    //This only handles the first record in the Trigger.new collection
    //But if more than 1 Case initiated this trigger, those additional records
    //will not be processed
    Case c1 = Trigger.old[0]; // Noncompliant
    Case c2 = Trigger.new[0]; // Noncompliant
    Case c3 = Trigger.oldmap.get(1); // Noncompliant
    Case c4 = Trigger.newmap.get(1); // Noncompliant
     // ...
 }
----


=== Compliant solution

[source,apex]
----
trigger CaseTrigger on Case (before insert, before update) {
    List<String> Names = new List<String>{};

    //Loop through all records in the Trigger.new collection
    for(Case c: Trigger.new){ // Good: Iterate through the trigger.new array instead
       c.Subject = c.Number + ':' + c.Status
    }
 }
