Unit Test Ruleset rules do not count against Guardrails
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
Although the documentation indicates that rules in a Unit Testing ruleset should not count against the guardrail score or unit test coverage, when branching a unit test ruleset, the branch did not carry the same unit test flag value as the source ruleset and the rulesets were counted as a result. This has been resolved with an update to ignore testrulesets in guardrail and pegaunit calculations.

Hot Fix Manager updated to use installation order for schema import
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
Schema changes were not being imported during the hot fix manager DL import process. Investigation showed this was due to hotfixes in the DL being iterated over from newest to oldest, causing older hotfixes to replace the value added to a map by the newer. To resolve this, the system has been updated to use hotfix install order, which considers selected and dependent hotfixes, rather than ordering newest to oldest. This ensures that newer table representations will override older rather than the other way around.

Check added to disable offset support for older versions of Oracle
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
An ORA-00933 error was generated after upgrading from Pega 7.1 to Pega 8.5. This was traced to a conflict between Oracle 11g and the Pega 8.5 platform related to an OFFSET statement being added to a query for a version of Oracle that doesn't support it. The preferred solution is to upgrade Oracle to address this, but in order to support backwards compatibility a check has been added which will disable offset support in Oracle if productversion <=11.

Handling added for missing expose.accessGroup property
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After exposing an existing page group and page list properties along with single value properties using a declare index, running the Column Populator tool prpcServiceUtils to populate the historical data resulted in the single value properties being updated in the exposed column properly, but the page group and page list properties were not updated in the declare index table. On new case creation the declare index tables were updated. This was traced to the default expose.accessGroup not being set for the user, and has been resolved by adding a check and handling that will add the missing property in prpcserviceutils.properties defining the access group for the Rule-Declare-Index of the classes being exposed if it is not present.
