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.

UPDATE IMPACT FOR PEGA CALL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
Log4j-1.2.14.jar and Log4j-1.2.17.jar have been removed to address the security concerns with these versions, and logger jars have been upgraded to 12.7.2 version (from 12.7.1 version) to make Pega Call compatible. This change will impact Pega Call customer environments due to Avaya or Genesys, which are part of Pega Call, having an internal dependency on Log4j1.x version jars. As a result, the SDK logging for Avaya or Genesys will not be available in the 8.7.3 release unless the Log4j-1.x jar files are reimported locally.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3

Rest connector passes RequestAttachmentPage to child requestor
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
While invoking the Rest Connect from a data page, the error "InboundMappingException: Exception occurred while mapping incoming response" was generated. Requests with "Content-type:multipart/form-data" require "pyRequestAttachmentPage" or "pyResponseAttachmentPage" to be populated with correct values. When Rest-Connector was executed in parallel, those pages were not copied to the child requestor and the rest call executed from the child requestor did not have correct header and body. To resolve this, MethodConnect.java has been updated to correctly pass pyRequestAttachmentPage to the child requestor.

Cleaned up outdated prprivcommon class references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
After update, an exception was generated related to FirstUseAssembler. This was a missed use case for the WriteEFormToFile activity from previous work which restricted loading classes from prprivcommon.jar, and has been resolved by removing references to the following classes which were made inaccessible by the changes to prprivcommon: com.pega.pegarules.storage.FileStorageManager com.pega.pegarules.storage.fs.resadaptor.RAFile com.pega.pegarules.storage.fs.resadaptor.OutputStreamWrapper

Case Archival hierarchy updated for multiple occurrences of a child case
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
Case Archival did not correctly discover hierarchy when child case appeared multiple times in the hierarchy. This was due to the CaseAssociationsProvider class having a check to skip performing the discovery when the case type had already been processed, and has been resolved by updating the handling for this scenario.
