Parse XML validation default set to "Never"
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In some cases, the parse XML rules function was not correctly mapping all of the input types. The root cause for the different failure modes seen was found to be that validation was set to "Always" by default, and the rule data did not reflect this until after a manual Save or Save-As. The default has now been set to "Never", and can be manually adjusted to "Always" or "When" as desired.

Customization corrected for RRHeader section of RD
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If the RRHeader section item was customized and renamed, opening Report Definition and clicking "Edit Report Title" did not produce the expected results even with the "Edit Report Title" command enabled. This was due to the RRHeader section being hard-coded; this is now loaded dynamically to allow for customization.

Search ability corrected for rule names containing spaces
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
While a space was allowed in the rule name of a report category rule, searching for a rule name with a space generated the error "Unable to open instance Error: Can't find record". This was due to a missing JavaIdentifier validator for the "pyCategoryName" property in "Rule-Category" class, and this has been added.

Email functions enhanced for customized authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After upgrade, the system was not sending email from an account that did not specify a UserID or password. This was caused by PRPC requiring authentication. To allow for custom installations, the SendEmailMessage and EmailListener functions will check for the password; if it is null or empty, then it will set the authentication to false and will not try to authenticate.

Error handling improved for importing data instances
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When importing data instances from a file, messaging showed success even when importing failed due to a database error (e.g.. column length not sufficient). In addition, the error in the log file was not detailed and no error appeared on screen. This problem was specific to Oracle DB and only with Unicode characters with a column size exceeding maximum length of 256. The error handling in this case has been improved: if there is a data base error, a message will appear on the modal dialog and all the changes in the transaction will be rolled back.

Handling added for undesignated authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If service package was unchecked, it was not possible to call authenticated activities from the service activity and errors were generated stating "You lack access required to execute RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY @BASECLASS". To resolve this, changes have been made in the service layer to bypass authentication for all services that do not have authentication enabled on their service packages.

Modified processing to handle SOAP requests with text mapping
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Headers like action or MessageID with addressing information were not being added to authentication that used a SOAP service with Enable ws-addressing on. This was traced to headers with only text mapping not working with latest axiom jar, and the code has been modified to process the text node.

Updated scroll bar generation for rule forms
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Calling WBOpen in a list view on click event allows a pop up to show. For rule or data instances which have forms bigger than the pop up size, no scrollbar was shown. This was caused by the previous ruleset regulating the scrollbar, RuleFormFrameset, being marked as deprecated but not removed from the function. To replace this rule, Window.open Attributes resizable and scrollbars have been set to true.
