Resolved putting JMS Message through JMS Listener interface
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
When using MS Listener integrated into Pega running on WebSphere Liberty, the listener was running correctly and able to consume JMS Messages. The JMS Listener ruleform provided options to browse and put JMS messages. However, when attempting to put a message into the destination queue, an error occurred. Investigation showed that if the resource lookup was using 'Resource references' on JMS Listener, the naming context was initialized with a null hashtable. This has been corrected by modifying AddJMSMessage and GenericViewJMSMessage to initialize the naming context with the default constructor RefreshJMSMessages to set JNDIServerName and pass the current parameter page when calling GenericViewJMSMessage.

SQL query handling added for case-sensitive DBs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
An Email Listener in RUNNING state was not picking up the emails as expected. This was traced to the column names (pr_log_service_email) being defined in lower case for native SQL queries: since MS SQL server db is case sensitive, it was not able to detect these column names and therefore failed to save the message stub. This has been resolved by adding the necessary handling.

Improved accessibility for labels and instructions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Tracer retains modified user settings
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
User settings in tracer were not shown when the settings window was closed and reopened. Investigation showed that settings are filtered based on watchInsKey, but this parameter was passed as "null" for global tracer because of a missing condition to check the session type. This has been resolved by adding a check so the WatchInsKey parameter is passed if the session type is rule watch.

DMaps cleared to set correct JobScheduler next run time
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
When items were added into a QP, the items shown under Scheduled and weren't being processed immediately. Investigation found that the job scheduler which fetched the entries for QP to process wasn't running as expected, and the "Next run" time stamp for JS was incorrectly populated and entries weren't being fetched at all. To correct this, updates have been made to clear entries in DMap belonging to the node during shutdown and from the membership listener so the correct next run time is set.

Job Scheduler will be stopped by node shutdown detection
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
LifeCycle Job Scheduler was trying to start already stopped background services during node shutdown, causing exceptions to be logged. This has been resolved by stopping Job Scheduler execution when node shutdown is detected.

Declaratives disabled during startup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Declaratives firing before the engine is fully up can lead to null pointer errors. In order to avoid this condition, declaratives will be disabled during startup so that unnecessary operations can be avoided and system can be started faster.

ArtifactoryStorage URL construction with port updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
After configuring a repository as a JFROG artifactory with a ruleform that provided a URL / port number and repository name, test connectivity worked as expected, but deploying the codeset using pipeline or importing the codeset using the import functionality generated the error "Unable to construct artifactory url due to invalid file path". The root cause of the issue was traced to the ArtifactoryStorage java class, which did not accept the port number in the format provided due to changes in the API. If there was no portNumber in the URL, the issue did not occur. To resolve this, the constructor has been changed to properly build the URI per https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/net/URI.html.

Class Loader cache values wrapped with WeakReference for improved cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Out Of Memory exceptions due to Metaspace were observed on Web tier instances running with a max Metaspace size of 2GB. Investigation showed that in PRClassLoaderDB, mLoaderCache values were wrapped with a SoftReference. To resolve this, the Class Loader cache values will be wrapped with a WeakReference, allowing the cache to free memory when it is no longer needed. JVM options has also been added to switch types of References being used if there is a preference.
