INC-218172 · Issue 716398

Text analytics character limit set to avoid memory issues

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3

Utility nodes were unstable related to searching, and email listener threads became stuck during Rule-based Text Annotation (RUTA) and natural language processing (NLP) work on incoming emails. This happened when the system experienced high memory consumption or exceeded memory usage when using text analytics. This has been resolved by setting the default maximum character limit for NLP analysis to 25,000 characters to avoid RUTA memory issues. If text is provided > 25,000 characters, the system will consider only the top 25,000 characters and a flag will appear on NLPOutcome to indicate text has been limited. This character limit is configurable, but if the configuration is set in excess of 25,000 a warning will be shown prior to saving the change.

JMX authentication enabled by default for embedded Kafka and Cassandra

Cassandra startup calls reordered to avoid deadlock

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3

Nodes received a service request but it became stuck. This was traced to a deadlock related to CassandraSessionCache.getSession, and has been resolved by reordering the method calls used to initialize the Cassandra session to delay adding the session change listener and avoid a deadlock scenario.

Corrected logic for parsing imported Excel formula cells

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3

Integers specified as cells with formulas in Excel were getting an additional ".0" in them due to them being parsed internally as doubles during the floating point arithmetic of the Apache POI library. This has been resolved by modifying the logic in ExcelUtils.java to apply DataFormatter to get the string value instead of an integer by default for a formula cell.

INC-220770 · Issue 718028

Null check added to getBaseRef

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3

When using a customized Cosmos portal that included tabs, some of the Pega APIs were not available in the child frame and javascript errors were generated when calculating the clipboard path for live UI elements. This was traced to invalid references to "pega.api.ui.util.getBaseRef", and has been resolved by adding null checks to the getBaseRef API call to make sure javascript errors are not thrown.

INC-205683 · Issue 702562

Support has been added for pre- and post-processing data transform functionality and validation in the local actions of the offline app.
