Memory leak repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
A server side memory leak was traced to heap utilization increasing due to a Stream control assembly problem where the CleanForReuse() function was not cleaning up pzAuto. The cleanForReuse method in generated HTML properties is used to either initialize local fields, in which case aContext will be non-null, or to clear the object for pooling, in which case aContext will be null. Because the pzAuto variable was not being properly nullified, pooled controls were retaining stale references to StreamTools, LayoutRuntime, PRThread, and others. This has been resolved by adding code to ensure the pzAuto variable is correctly nullified, and additional work has been done to improve memory management.

Holdability flag set on connection for using MS SQL in Designer Studio
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
Static assembler was not working from Designer Studio, displaying the error "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: SQL Server supports holdability at the connection level only. Use the connection.setHoldability() method." Investigation showed that ApplicationAssembly.getResultSetForQuery explicitly sets the holdability flag on the prepared statement, and this issue has been resolved by updating the system to set the holdability flag on connection as well.

Resolved Sporadic ControlBuild error in sections
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After upgrade, a sporadic error was seen with sections of a VTable after a server restart where a portion would not load and the error "com.pegarules.generated.html_property.ra_stream_pxtextinput_1786000787_default incompatible with com.pega.pegarules.pub.runtime.ControlBuilder" was seen. This issue was traced to invalid generation of an assembly parameter map for random sections the first time the table was called after restart. To resolve this, the system will now allow assembly parameter generation for a second time when they are empty, and the assembly parameters preparation will be handled as a synchronous process.

Data-test-id handling updated to resolve testing issue with custom controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After configuring a custom control, the control did not render as expected when trying to capture the scenario testing. Investigation showed that in read-only mode, two spans were wrapped with same data-test-id when formatType is number. This caused a ‘no unique selector’ issue with scenario tests. To resolve this, pzpega_ui_template_displayText.js has been updated to not include data-test-id on outer span when formatType is number.

Pega Survey answer values support special characters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When using a Complex radio control (RadioButtonComplexQuestionSurvey), a selected option that used answer values containing special characters was cleared on refresh. This was traced to a mismatch between strAnswer and strValue in the control logic, and has been corrected.

Added handling for deprecated UI Kit in Pulse OpenURLInWindow
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After upgrade, clicking on a link in a Pulse comment opened a new window with an error message indicating no content was returned. Investigation showed that if an older deprecated version of the UI kit was used, 'Open URL in window' was configured as Run Script function. The more recent versions use an OpenURLInWindow action. To resolve this, the script has been updated to use an action and pass the correct parameters.

Check added to pyWorkPage before context page replacement
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When given an assignment configured with Save and Next buttons where the on-click of the Next button triggered FinishAssignment and the case type used Optimistic locking, the workobject lock was not acquired and an error was thrown when clicking Save and then the Next button. Investigation showed that the lock was not acquired because the pyCaseUpdateInfo page was not available in the work object under pyWorkPage. This was traced to the 'When' condition used to display the delete icon on a pulse post. This When condition needs to be evaluated on the context page (in this case, the work page), but when multiple posts are present on the WorkObject) the pyWorkPage was being replaced with a fresh copy from the DB and any updates on the current work page were lost. To resolve this, the behavior has been changed from always creating a context page to only creating the context page if one does not already exist on the Thread.

Pin Case to Board updated to use unique IDs for different workpools
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
When using the Pin Case to Board functionality, it was only possible to find and pin cases in the default/current work pool of the working access group and not any other cases in any other work pools which allowed access to open/search/process. This was due to pyLabel being used to compare if a value entered was valid, which was not a unique key. To resolve this, the pyValidatePinDetails activity in Pega-Ext-Mentions-Documents, Pega-Ext-Mentions-Cases, and Pega-Ext-Mentions-Groups classes have been updated to compare pzInsKey instead of pyLabel to check for validate pin.
