Creating data page unit tests in Internet Explorer 8

When creating data page unit tests, selecting a parent property does not automatically select the child properties when using Internet Explorer 8.

Page and page list properties to be included in a data page unit test are selected on the Create test screen by selecting a check box next to the property name. Normally, selecting the check box of a parent property automatically selects all subsequent child properties as well. When using Internet Explorer 8, child properties are not automatically selected when the parent property's check box is selected.

The solution requires selecting all of the desired child properties individually. Select the check box next to each child property to include it in the data page unit test.

Configuration required for data operations on external schema when using a Postgres database

When you use the API for data operations on external schema in the Postgres database, you must update the prconfig.xml file. No other platform requires a prconfig.xml update.

To update the prconfig.xml file:

1. Stop the server and add the following entry to the prconfig.xml file:
   env name="database/databases/postgres_ext/defaultSchema"
   value="externalschema"
   where postgres_ext is the external database that uses the external schema “externalschema”.
2. Restart the server.

Precision of Oracle Timestamp property when using RDB-Save

DateTime properties that are mapped to an Oracle Timestamp column will experience a loss of precision when they are saved using the RDB-Save method. When you use RDB-Save for an Oracle Timestamp, precision will be accurate to the second. For example, a value of 20171119T124745.006 will be saved as 20171119T124745. When you use Obj-Save, precision will be accurate to the millisecond. For more information, see DateTime property mapping in Oracle for Pega 7.
