Fixed removal of uncommitted hotfixes
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If a hotfix was installed in an environment but not committed, attempts to un-install the hotfix via System -> Tools -> Update Manager -> Uncommitted Hot fixes failed with the error "The following hotfixes could not be rolled back due to an exception". This was caused by the system not being able to switch threads context from the clipboard viewer, and has been corrected.

Existing BIX pr_extract_time tables preserved during install
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In older versions of the software, the pr_extract_time table was created by the core PRPC installation. This table creation was recently moved to the installation of BIX, but the system was improperly dropping this table from the data schema if it already existed during installation. This has been corrected.

Corrected temp directory for upgrade file extraction
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
On upgrade, the extractedfiles directory was being written to the java.io.tmpdir location instead of to the Web-tier temporary path, i.e.. the temp location of the application server. This was incorrect, and the web temp directory is now set as the default temp directory in PRPC.

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

Updated locale clock handling for Java 7 and PAL
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Java 7 changed how locales are handled, and the two different NumberFormat classes within PRPC were sometimes leading to errors including blocking access to PAL. In particular, the way PAL set wall clock time was not compatible, and the system has been updated to parse it correctly with the new format.

BIX extracts made consistent independent of run method
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
The property format outputted by BIX was different when BIX was run via the command line versus running it from an extract rule in the application's user interface UI. This was traced to running from the UI the batch requestor as unauthenticated and properties created in application rulesets not having property information: the XML page did not have pxObjClass set, hence the property info was null and formatting was ignored. To resolve this, the current requestor will be used (which is properly authorized), and If it is null, then a new app requestor will be created.
