JR49618: Preprocess does not generate the correct list for parentCatgroup_id_search

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The preprocess code populates the TI_APGROUPincorrectly when
  category id's are similar. For example:
  
   10001_123456 and 10001_12345
  
   Category 10001_123456 will not be added because preproces uses
  "contains" rather than comparing the whole object. Here is an
  example from the trace:
  
   1899607=10201_125723;10201_12551;10201_12572;10201_60547;10201_
  12551;102
   01_60539;10201_76568;11558_125727;11558_85264;11558_85277
  
   The category 10201_125723 is not added to the final list that
  is inserted into the TI_APGROUP table.
  

Local fix

• Ensure that you do not have any category id's as the example
  above.
  

Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED:
   WebSphere Commerce users running preprocess with similar
  category id's in the same catalog.
  
   PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
   Preprocess does not generate the correct list for
  parentCatgroup_id_search
  
   BUSINESS IMPACT:
   Preprocess will not populate the TI_APGROUP table correctly
  causing solr documents to be incorrect for some products
  affecting searches.
  
   RECOMMENDATION:
  

Problem conclusion

• The CatalogHierarchyDataImportPreprocessor code was modified so
  that the list is populated correctly.
