Rest connector supports extended chars in attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
When the pyRequestAttachmentPage clipboard page was populated with a file name that contained Latin supplemental 1 unicode characters (decimal values 160 to 255 - for example an umlaut), any extended characters were being converted to question marks (?) before the call was sent, causing the web service call initiated by Pega to fail. To better support this use, an enhancement has been added to support a multipart request with extended characters in the file name. This allows the pyRequestAttachmentPage to specify pyFileNameExtendedChars, allowing RFC 6532 mode to be toggled for multipart requests with attachments. This mode allows for UTF-8 encoding in the attachment file name header, rather than the default ASCII encoding.

Updated JSON DT nested page property handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
In a JSON data transform, when using an "Update page" step on a single-page property, as a child step of an "Append and map to" step where a pagelist property is given, the pagelist was populated with only one result but the single-page property was treated like a pagelist and received multiple results. This has been resolved by updating the ClipboardJSONDeserializer implementation and downstream abstractions to support "clipboard only" relations as properties in nested PageLists.

Handling added for custom authentication in embedded mashup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
After embedding the Mashup gadget in an external application, at browser refresh a Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) warning appeared and the gadget did not load as expected. A second refresh cleared the error. Investigation showed that when custom authentication is configured, 'use SSL' is checked in Authentication service. That meant that when the user was authenticated, the redirection was not considering the query string entered before authentication and the CORB warning was issued due to a change in response. Because there is special handling for the above use case and post-authentication redirection does not happen through the normal flow (HttpAPI), this issue has been resolved by honoring the query string stored in requestor (entered by user) while redirecting.

Delete Requestor method updated for use with CMT
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
JMS MDB Listeners with Container Managed Transaction (CMT) enabled in Websphere 8.5 had global transactions fail. To initialize a JMS-MDB listener, a requestor of type APP is used. Upon the service being fully initialized, the requestor is removed by executing a delete operation followed by a COMMIT. However, in this scenario, the initialization operation is running within a CMT context and a SQLException was raised indicating that the commit was not allowed. To resolve this, the delete requestor method has been refactored to take into account the CMT context so the commit is not executed if the transaction is managed by the container.

Compilation logic error corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
A compilation failure on upgraded systems using the JDK 11 compilation of libraries that include Pega 7 functions that have INCLUDE statements that are not supported in JDK 11 was traced to a logic error added when enhancing debug logging. This has been corrected.

Corrected filedownload extension header issue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Filedownload header contained plain non-ascii characters which caused a security violation issue. This has been resolved by removing the filedownload header from the HTTP response when the sendfile API is used with inputstream to download a file.

API added to minimize calls to set parameters in datapage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1
Differences were seen after upgrade when using a datapage associated with a property which was application-specific and that had Data Access for the property defined as “Copy data from a data page" with parameters whose value was set by an activity from the associated property of type single page. Prior to upgrade, only one call was seen to set the values for the parameters in datapage, but post-upgrade multiple calls were used to set the values to these parameters. This was traced to logic used for extraction and invoking the perform, and has been resolved by adding the new API 'DeclarativeAction.shouldExtractWatchedProperties'. It will return true or false, depending whether the extraction of watch properties is needed or not.
