When given a category, product, and SKU, the ProductListContains servlet bean queries whether a product comparison list includes the given product.
By default, ATG Commerce includes a globally-scoped instance of ProductListContains, located in Nucleus at /atg/commerce/catalog/comparison/ProductListContains.
The ProductListContains servlet bean accepts the following input parameters:
productList(Required)
TheProductComparisonListobject to examine.productID(Required)
The repository ID of the product to look for inproductList.categoryID
The repository ID of the category to look for inproductList.If you don’t specify a category ID for the given product, then
ProductListContainslooks for a list entry whosecategoryproperty matches either the given product’s default category or null if there is no default category for the given product.skuID
The repository ID of the SKU to look for inproductList.If you don’t specify a SKU for the given product, then
ProductListContainslooks for a list entry whoseskuproperty matches either the given product’s first child SKU or null if there are no SKUs for the given product.repositoryKey
The key to pass toCatalogToolsto select a product catalog repository in which to look for the item. The key-to-catalog mapping is defined inCatalogTools. If this parameter is unset, the default product catalog repository is used.This optional parameter is useful for localization, which often requires the use of alternate product catalogs for different locales.
ProductListContains doesn’t set any output parameters. However, it renders one of the following open parameters:
true
Rendered if the product comparison list contains the specific product, category, and SKU.false
Rendered if the product comparison list doesn’t contain the specified product, category, and SKU.
