Additional logging added to diagnose stale thread errors
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
In order to better diagnose issues with stale threads, loggers have been added to the ThreadData class to capture and print any stack trace which is causing the thread to be cleared or destroyed. These loggers will only be printed whenever a stale thread error is thrown in order to maximize log space.

Improved BIX extract handling for multiple active agents
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When multiple agents were scheduled to run extracts at the same time by utilizing pxExtractDataWithArgs, there was intermittent failure in creating the manifest files. The BIX log would not contain an entry for the files being created, no error was displayed, and agents sometimes needed to be restarted. This was an issue with incomplete extraction of the output data and manifest files due to the PAL timer overriding the current thread context as it handled each of the multiple calls. To resolve this, the previous static variables used to store thread and requester instances have been made private to ensure reliability when handling parallel extracts and simultaneous runs.

OCXinstaller install.bat script for Windows explicitly sets .cab file path
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
The OCXinstaller install.bat script for Windows failed if it was run from the command line in a directory other than the one the script was stored in. The root cause was the batch file not finding the actual .cab files, as the batch file assumes the cab files are in the current path. The install.bat file has been updated to always uses the path of the batch file as the current path.

Query table counts updated for IIF file with nulls
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
While importing a jar through Import wizard in Designer Studio for a DB2 database, any Alter queries with SET NOT NULL or SET NULL fired the query 'CALL SYSPROC.ADMIN_CMD' to re-organize the altered table. That query generated the error "The number of host variables in the EXECUTE or OPEN statement is not equal to the number of values required" due to it not including the table names, and this has been fixed by populating the parameters in the place of '?' when downloading the SQL.

Removed pagination size restriction on listview if page size is set
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When an application had more that 50 data-types, not all data-types were shown in the application packaging wizard due to the page size being set to 50 while the list view function was set to return a maximum of 50 results if pagination was enabled. The pagination size limit on listview has been disabled in cases where page size is set in order to remove this conflict and display the results as expected.

Documentation updated to reflect MaxRecords blank value = 0
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
The developer help for the Max Records field on the Schedule tab of the Agents rule form states "If this field is blank, the default value is 50.". In actuality, a blank value in Max Records behaves the same as a value of 0, i.e. "process all entries in its queue before sleeping". This was a documentation error, and the help topic in question has been updated to reflect the actual results of the blank field.
