Support added for special characters in XML stream rules

Resolved in Pega Version 8.8

When using an XML Stream rule, node values were encoded for a broader set of characters than was required to create properly formed XML. Special characters were converted to ASCII characters when setting the XML to a property with Property-Set-XML. When the mode of the element was changed from Standard to Literal XML, the special character was retained but the element tag itself was missing. This has been resolved by adding a new "XML" encoding format in StreamBuilder. In ResponseTag.appendUnformattedValue(), use the XML mode when resolving to "NORMAL" format and the JSP base class is "Rule-Obj-XML". In StreamBuilderTools, the system will not encode '+' symbols when in XML mode.

Clarified SLA calendar error message

Resolved in Pega Version 8.8

If a calculated SLA date is out of calendar end date range, the error "Perhaps the business calendar of year XXXX is missing" is generated. When the provided start date is not the business day and the SLA was calculated by using a custom activity using addTime, isBusinessDay and pxGetSpecifiedTimeOnDate function, this message showed the current year calendar. When checked in the tracer the exception was thrown with the correct year calendar, but when the exception was written as an alert the message was changed and provided the misleading error on the screen. This has been resolved by addressing the misleading error message.

Agent tracing handling updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2

When attempting to trace agents the error "Unable to trace the agent" appeared on screen. Investigation showed that the data page used by the Tracer was not always available in a thread that was displaying the section, most commonly if the section was using deferred loading. This has been resolved by using a data page available in a thread that opens a Tracer's section.

Article on configuring display options for a harness updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

The documentation around the load behavior of a harness has been updated to reflect that the initialization settings only apply when using the harness as a landing page from the channel config.

Max number of rows setting properly honored

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7

The setting for the maximum number of rows to retrieve was still used in a report definition even when it was disabled. This was traced to the report definition being sourced from a data page and having pagination enabled, and has been resolved by updating the handling for this use case.
