Cleaned up 'clear pages after non-use' function
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When the 'clear pages after non-use' option is selected, all the referencing threads should be closed and the page should be removed automatically. Instead, the document and threads were closed but the data page was not removed. This was traced to the Thread context not being present in the ThreadContainer during thread clean up, and has been corrected.

Next run in agent schedule updates after DB access issue
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
It was discovered that if access to the database was interrupted, the Next run in agent schedule was not updating and not being run. This has been fixed by updating AgentQueue.handleProblem() to handle unexpected errors and ensure delayDueToProblem() is invoked always.

Added handling for unknown UpdateDateType property
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
Saving a Flow stream triggers the pzTrackChangesForFlow activity call, which then reads the pxUpdateDateTime property and converts it to Big Decimal for comparison. This conversion requires mode of the property (i.e. DateTime (?M?) in this case) to be known, which is specified in blob as encoded format. When using a PCI framework where the mode of the pxUpdateDateTime property is unknown(???), a NumberFormatException was generated. This has been fixed.

Reworked config file search to prevent WebSphere looping
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
During server startup, the engine tries to populate the environment properties by reading the config files for the application server. A problem was found in some installations with WebSphere where trying to locate the XML file containing the information on the server port created an infinite loop that caused the engine startup to hang. To resolve this, the search function call now has been replaced by another method that tries to obtain the same information from config service without having to locate the XML file.

Removed primary page requirement for link-object activity
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When using the link-object activity method with the history checkmark and the specified step page without providing a primary page, the link-object activity method caused a null-pointer-exception when it attempted to fetch data from the pxRequestor page. This was caused by an unnecessary reference to the primary page, and the method to retrieve the value of pyUserIdentifier has been updated.

Corrected validation error for Extract rule field length
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
A validation error noting that the field length of the table was limited to 30 characters was occurring when trying to check in an Extract rule even if the field value had been shortened. While checking in the extract rule, a block of code in the Rule-Utility-Function validateTreeProperties was recomputing the pagelist's table name instead of using the one provided by the user. The Rule-Utility-Function validateTreeProperties function has been modified to fix the issue.

Survey Complex Question Definition properly displayed
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Selecting any Complex Question to look at the definition displayed a blank screen. This was traced to an issue with the ruleformtabs properties for the layout group used by complex questions, and has been resolved by changing the Layout Group display type from "Default" to "Tab".

Improved Page compare for page groups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Field level auditing on embedded properties sporadically did not report the "old" value when a property was modified even though the page was listed as "Modified". This has been resolved by adding logic to the pxComparePages algorithm to treat Lists and Groups differently. Now Page and Value Groups will use pxSubscript as the primary way to detect add and deletes.
