public class ProductComparisonList
extends ComparisonList

ProductComparisonList extends ComparisonList and manages list elements Entry that are specifically designed for comparing catalog-based category/product/sku tuples rather than simple Java objects.

This class includes convenience methods that take product, category, and sku id's and retrieve the corresponding objects from the product catalog, making it easier to write form handlers and droplet that manipulate the list contents. It also endows each list element with an unambiguous unique id and allows callers to remove elements by specifying their ids, which eases the task of writing form handlers that display a sorted list of product entries with "remove" buttons or checkboxes associated with Entry.

Example:

The following JHTML fragment displays the names, category names, and inventory availability of all of the items in a product comparison list:

 <droplet bean="ForEach">
  <param name="array" value="bean:ComparisonList.items">
  <param name="sortProperties" value="bean:ComparisonList.sortString">
  <oparam name="output">
    Product: <valueof param="element.product.displayName">unknown</valueof><br>
    Category: <valueof param="element.category.displayName">none</valueof><br>
    Inventory: <valueof param="element.inventoryInfo.availabilityStatusMsg">unknown</valueof><
  </oparam>
 </droplet>

public void setSiteURLManager(SiteURLManager pSiteURLManager)

getItems

public ProductComparisonList.Entry getItems(int pEntryId)

Get a product comparison Entry given its uid. This method is structured to present "items[id]" as an indexed bean property so it can be used within JHTML pages to retrieve a given Entry using syntax like "bean:/path/to/ProductList.items[param:id]".

Parameters:

pEntryId - The unique id of the Entry to return.

Returns:

The Entry whose id matches pUID, or null if there is no matching Entry.

add

public boolean add(java.lang.String pProductId,

                   java.lang.String pCatalogKey)
            throws RepositoryException

Add a product to the product comparison list, optionally specifying an associated category and sku. If the category is not specified, the product's default category will be used if possible. If the sku is not specified, the first sku in the product's sku list will be used if possible.

Parameters:

pProductId - The repository id of the product being added.

pCategoryId - The repository id of the parent category to use for this Entry. If null, the product's default parent category will be used instead. If the product has no default parent category, the category in the Entry will be null.

pCatalogKey - An optional key that is passed to the CatalogTools component, which uses it to locate an alternate product catalog from which to add the product. If null, the default catalog is used.

Returns:

True if the item was added to the list, false if it was not, either because no such product with the given id was found, or because the category/product/sku triplet already existed in the list.

Throws:

RepositoryException - if there is any repository error while looking up categories, products, or skus.

contains

public boolean contains(java.lang.String pProductId,
                        java.lang.String pCategoryId,

                        java.lang.String pCatalogKey)
                 throws RepositoryException

Return true if the product comparison list contains an Entry for the given product id, category id, and sku id. A null category id matches the product's default parent category, if any. A null sku id matches the product's default sku, if any.

The behavior of contains therefore parallels the behavior of add, so that calling add(productId, categoryId, skuId) and then calling contains(productId, categoryId, skuId)> with the same values will return true.

The pCatalogKey parameter is used to select a product catalog in cases where it is necessary to locate a product's default parent category or default sku. A null value means use the default product catalog.

Throws:

RepositoryException

                        boolean pMatchSku)
                 throws RepositoryException

Return true if the product comparison list contains an Entry for the given product id, category id, and sku id. A null category id matches the product's default parent category, if any. A null sku id matches the product's default sku, if any. If pMatchSku is false, then no check on sku is hold.

The behavior of contains therefore parallels the behavior of add, so that calling add(productId, categoryId, skuId) and then calling contains(productId, categoryId, skuId)> with the same values will return true.

The pCatalogKey parameter is used to select a product catalog in cases where it is necessary to locate a product's default parent category or default sku. A null value means use the default product catalog.

The pMatchSku indicates is pSkuId parameter is used. If pMatchSku is false, then no ckek on sku.

setPreloadInventoryData

public void setPreloadInventoryData(boolean pPreloadInventoryData)

Specifies whether to load inventory data for each Entry in the product comparison list when that Entry is created, or to leave the inventory information empty until a call is made to refreshInventoryData.

If your pages explicitly refresh the inventory data before displaying product comparison information, you can set this property to false and avoid one extra query to the inventory manager when each item is created. If your pages do not explicitly refresh the inventory data, you should set this property to true so your comparison list entries will contain a snapshot of the inventory data at the time each Entry was added to the list.

The default value for preloadInventoryData is true.

isPreloadInventoryData
