Removed duplicate Set-Cookie Secure Keyword
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Checking the headers of the login page showed the Cookie Pega-AAT duplicated the Secure keyword. This was traced to the PegaAATCookieWrapper extending the CookieWrapper class and causing the secure flag to be set in both the classes. This did not have a functional impact, but the secure flag set has been removed from the PegaAATCookieWrapper class to avoid duplication.

Resolved classcast exception with assembled HTML controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A classcast exception was being generated on login. Investigation showed the Static Assembler was unexpectedly using a different Assembler to assemble the Html control rule. Standard behavior is that StreamBuilderAssembler assembles controls of type StreamBuilder and ControlAssemblerForVTable assembles controls of type ControlBuilder. In this case, static assembly for HTML controls using VTable was performed using StreamBuilderAssembler, causing a classcast exception when using VTable because the instance of the generated.html class was incorrectly inheriting from StreamBuilder (the parent class of ControlBuilder) instead of ControlBuilder which is the specified interface in the generated.html Java code. This has been resolved by updating the system to skip rules of type 'Rule-HTML-Property'(control) during Static Assembly.

InsID will be derived from handle if null for upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Upgrade from Pega 7 to Pega 8 failed with a null pointer exception in the “Upgrade Context” target. This was traced to a rule where the pxInsID was null. To resolve this, an update has been made to derive the InsID from handle when needed.

Invalid date handling added to Legacy Adapters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Running the Job Scheduler activity failed with the error "not a valid date/time value". Investigation showed this was caused by LegacyPropertyAdapter.isEmpty being returned as true in case of properties having invalid values, and has been resolved by adding handling for an InvalidValueException in LegacyPropertyAdapter and LegacyPageAdapter.

Handling added for multi-node concurrent access to conclusions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A proposition update was triggered and heap memory jumped up and a thread dump was generated. A Pega0004 error was also generated at the same time. Investigation showed that many queries were getting fired on pr4_rule_sysgen table in a multi-node environment during RAP import. This caused database contention as more than 80 nodes were trying to load conclusions simultaneously. To resolve this, an update has been made to run an agent periodically to save conclusions into the database. This agent is configured to not run on multiple nodes simultaneously, which will avoid database contention issues from conclusions.

Performance improvement for Application Save: Node Level Data Pages
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
As part of new functionality introduced in 8.3, data types defined in the application record will be turned into data objects on Application save. As part of this process node level pages are invalidated and reloaded and there is an explicit commit that marks the Application record as dirty and sends any calls for the application record to the database for fresh records. In a multi-node environment, the number of queries to get the application record being saved became exponentially higher and performance impacts were seen. This has been resolved by updating the system to skip eager loading of the data page definition when an access rule or application definition is saved.

Error message updated for data page with REDUX
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A WrongModeException was generated when a runtime activity was trying to access a missing property in a data page with REDUX enabled. To clarify the issue, the error has been modified to be a MissingPropertyException. In addition, property information for a page group property was inferred on the top level page when it should have been inferred on the embedded page. This has been changed to infer the correct property information for mode-based processing to work as expected.
