Added busy state reset to reenable buttons after custom frame cancel
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When using a custom iFrame in a section that called a third-party URL, clicking on cancel for the popup "Do you want to stay on this page or leave it?" caused the screen to freeze. This was traced to the cancellation of the dirty page setting a busy state which disabled all the buttons and did not have a path to recovery. This has been resolved by updating the busy state so it will reset when the user chooses to cancel the changes and reenable all the buttons.

Client side validation works with Reference page property
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
A reference page property in a 'when' rule was not evaluating properly for checking a Date field when client side validation or Client side template UI was checked on the Harness level. This was traced to pyRequired being boolean: the boolean being compared to a string false value yielded a wrong comparison, leading to the wrong validation type required. To resolve this, the system will use the === comparator to compare boolean false in datetime to remove the required validator.

Resolved Null Pointer Error in edited complex data transform
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2
While editing a data transform, using a "For Each Page" step with a "When" child step and a "Set" grandchild step along with checking "Also use each page as source context" on the "For Each Page" step, the expression builder for the set "Set" did not launch when initially clicked. Clicking to another tab in the Designer Studio and then back to the data transform allowed the expression builder to launch, but once launched it did not have the source value populated. Submitting, closing, or canceling the modal (regardless of whether or not changes were made) resulted in a popup indicating a Null Pointer Error. This was caused by a java script Null Pointer Error in the OpenRuleAdvanced_OverLabel control which led to the sourceElement value being reported as null in the mentioned scenario. This has been fixed.

Email listener update for Microsoft Exchange server
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade, TooManyObjectsOpenedException/MapiExceptionSessionLimit errors were seen when starting the email listener. Investigation showed that when the listener was started, two sessions were getting opened and then not closed properly. This was a method originally intended to allow the system to re-use the session to minimize performance overhead, but it is not well-suited for use with Microsoft Exchange server as the Exchange server is unable to cleanup idle sessions. As a result, too many MAPI sessions were opened and led to an authentication exception while opening additional sessions. To resolve this, an update has been made so the system will close the session while the listener sleeps. This stop, restart and graceful shutdown scenario for single threaded email listener scenarios will create a new session every time and close it properly.

Fallback added for calculating date after upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade, the date value returned from Stored procedure failed to be mapped to "date" type property. Stored Procedure was used to get data from an external Oracle database and then handed to a Data Transform to map the values. When the Data was fetched from the store procedure, the date properties were mapping correctly, but when these values were mapped from the clipboard into the usecase using a Data Transform, the data for date properties was becoming corrupted. This was traced to logic differences between the versions: 8.2 generated resolveToDate while in 8.5 generates resolveToBigDecimal. In this case, resolve to big decimal was being called with aType='D' and aValue=20200918, and the 20200918 number was being interpreted as days since 1 Jan 1970 instead of as a date. This has been resolved by adding a fallback for the date calculation.

Attachment gadget updated for Firefox
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2
When the Attachment gadget pops up using Firefox, it was not being correctly read with JAWS. This was an issue with the enter key press triggering a click event which did not have the expected code for Firefox. Changes have been made so the browser will consider the event object correctly.

Unneeded AUC error percentage calculation removed for better system performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When generating snapshots of the ADM models, an inefficiency in the metric calculation for the AUC error percentage caused an excessive amount of memory to be allocated which could cause slowdown or require a system reboot. This has been resolved by removing the problematic AUC error percentage calculation as it is not used in the UI.
