Added handling for custom skin using the $ symbol for value
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.2
After upgrade, using a custom style sheet to display the $ symbol prior to values being shown or entered caused the application skin to not log and throw an error. This was caused by a missed use case for adding $ in css :before or :after content due to a dependency on this "$" notation for fetching right mixin color from skin color. The array index out of bounds exception was generated by the statemachine parser while handling special characters because it considered the quotes of csscontent to be corrupted. To resolve this, an extra check has been added for handling """ and "'" cases in cssCustomParser.java and junits have been updated.

Data flow region switching method added to prevent truncating event strategy data
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.2
An enhancement has been added to allow customers to switch data flow execution from one region to another without clearing event strategy data. This process looks like (1) Dataflow is started on one region. (2) Dataflow is paused in same region. (3) Dataflow is started in second region. Previously, step 3 would delete the existing event strategy data. To prevent that, a new run option has been added named 'pyDataFlowStorageTruncateOnStart'. By default, this is set to true and truncation will occur. If set to false, the event strategy data will not be deleted.

Modified pzPopulateTrainingandTestDetails to resolve input error in test model
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.2
After creating a text model, trying to update it resulted in errors. This was caused by the input bean for pzPopulateTrainingandTestDetails getting reset and causing a nullpointerexception while trying to load the spell checker because the taxonomy data was empty. This has been fixed by ensuring the input param object is created after setting the taxonomy data. A null check has also been added in the creation process of the input param object in pzPopulateTrainingandTestDetails.

Open API passes 'true' for aUnlockOnCommit parameter to minimize pr_sys_locks table filesize
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.2
The Archive/Purge Wizard was not removing the locks acquired during the execution from the pr_sys_locks table, resulting in locks remaining in the table for up to three days. This could potentially cause an enormous filesize and lead to other processes failing to acquire locks due to contention on the table. To resolve this, the system will pass 'true' for aUnlockOnCommit parameter on the open API so that the lock is released on commit of the deferredDelete on purged instances.

Added check for naming conflicts when upgrading Oracle
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
When attempting to upgrade a single schema on Oracle database, running the generateddl script failed with a NullPointerException. This was caused by database tables which had a column name called 'SYS_ID' as part of the primary key. Since Oracle uses system-generated names beginning with "SYS_" for implicitly generated schema objects and subobjects, Oracle discourages the use of this prefix in the names explicitly provided to the schema objects and subobjects in order to avoid possible conflicts in name resolution. To resolve this, a tester has been added to the system to check for this naming use and issue a warning.

Documentation added on adding Tomcat-on-Oracle Rules resource
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
The Tomcat-on-Oracle installation guides for Pega ML7 and ML8 did not contain instructions for adding a for jdbc/AdminPegaRULES. As such if the installer prepared a two-user (Base + Admin) setup in the database and allocated the Base user to jdbc/PegaRULES, the Pega platform was unable to run DDL to create new tables for new work types and new data types, as the installer has not configured the additional datasource to use the Admin user. The documentation has been updated to add the necessary step between Steps 1 and 2 of the "Create a JDBC Datasource" chapter (page 41 from the ML7 installation guide).

Added keyword support for <current>
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
Variations between system versions were causing a decision table containing some regexp functions to pass or fail validation depending on the version. To remedy this, support has been added for using the regular expression function as a keyword to ensure valid tables are properly handled.

Added support for localization of the 'Advanced' value of the When rule
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
If the "Advanced" value was localized in the When rule form, it failed as it was trying to compare with localized text. To resolve this, WhenTabListener has been modified to use the ID attribute instead of text for comparison.

Case Worker Portal harness error resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
When using the Case Worker Portal with the UI-Kit:03-01-01 ruleset, the first search for work returned the expected results, but opening a work object and then searching again caused the same (now incorrect) results to be returned. This was traced to a harness call and storage issue, and has been resolved.
