Null check added to getBaseRef
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When using a customized Cosmos portal that included tabs, some of the Pega APIs were not available in the child frame and javascript errors were generated when calculating the clipboard path for live UI elements. This was traced to invalid references to "pega.api.ui.util.getBaseRef", and has been resolved by adding null checks to the getBaseRef API call to make sure javascript errors are not thrown.

Corrected duplicated select file label reading
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When using a screen reader, the select file button label was announced twice on focus. Investigation showed this was caused by the helper text and tooltip having the same content which sounded like a duplicate reading. To resolve this, the text is now differentiated.

Corrected links being replaced by KM rich text editor

Native calendar control works for Firefox on Android
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
When using Firefox with 'Use native control on mobile' checked, attempting to enter a date into the DateTime field highlighted the mm field but the date selector did not open and keyboard entry was not recognized. This was traced to the native calendar for date time control not opening in Firefox on Android. To correct this, type checks for date, time and datetime-local have been added to the isTextBox function in pzpega_ui_events_infra js.

VBD enhancements added to assist in cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
Running VBD for a long period of time will lead to accumulating partition summaries without a safe means to clean up. Enhancements have now been added to support the following:1) An API has been added to VBDService to support deletion of partitions from cache AND persistence prior to a date. This can be used as a building block for "keep last X days" functionality on a VBD dataset. 2) The Start Date will be used when loading Partition summary data when the service initially loads. Eviction logic has been implemented to remove partitions along with summary data (e.g. counts and dictionaries) for partition keys earlier than Start Date. Eviction occurs when Start Date moves ahead of partition's timestamp. If Start Date is updated backward by user and there exists data in Cassandra on these dates, then the partition summaries should be loaded into the cache. This requires a full cache reload which will be automatically triggered.

Prconfig added to control declarative behavior during page merge/copy
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
Declare-on change was getting triggered multiple times even though there was no change in the watched property. Investigation showed this happened when properties had the same value in source and target page. To resolve this, a prconfig has been added which may be used to disable declaratives while performing page merge operations for these properties. The setting name is clipboard/putAllKeepNew/doNotFireDeclaratives: when true, it will disable declaratives when there is no change in property value while performing page merge/copy operation with merge strategy PUTALL_KEEPNEW. The default value is false.

Handling added for eml attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
After being sent from a Pega activity, an email with a file attachment using the .eml format showed special characters instead of the text when viewed in Outlook. This has been resolved by updating the system to skip Content-Transfer-Encoding for eml attachments.

Revalidate of class rules successful after major version skimming
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
When performing a major ruleset version skim and revalidating all rules, most class rules were failing during the revalidation. This was a gap in how Ruleset List and Major Version Skim work together. When calling getRuleSetPrerequisites(“rulesetA:01-01-01”), the API uses uses the current application context to return a ruleset list from an application which owns rulesetA and its compatible version, but if no owning application was found from the current application context, a list of rulesetA and PegaRULES:XX-XX-XX was returned. This caused a conflict between what the system was trying to validate and the ruleset versions returned. To resolve this, an update has been made which will exclude the version number for this comparison if no owning application is found.
