Cleaned up 'clear pages after non-use' function
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When the 'clear pages after non-use' option is selected, all the referencing threads should be closed and the page should be removed automatically. Instead, the document and threads were closed but the data page was not removed. This was traced to the Thread context not being present in the ThreadContainer during thread clean up, and has been corrected.

Next run in agent schedule updates after DB access issue
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
It was discovered that if access to the database was interrupted, the Next run in agent schedule was not updating and not being run. This has been fixed by updating AgentQueue.handleProblem() to handle unexpected errors and ensure delayDueToProblem() is invoked always.

Added handling for unknown UpdateDateType property
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
Saving a Flow stream triggers the pzTrackChangesForFlow activity call, which then reads the pxUpdateDateTime property and converts it to Big Decimal for comparison. This conversion requires mode of the property (i.e. DateTime (?M?) in this case) to be known, which is specified in blob as encoded format. When using a PCI framework where the mode of the pxUpdateDateTime property is unknown(???), a NumberFormatException was generated. This has been fixed.

Reworked config file search to prevent WebSphere looping
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
During server startup, the engine tries to populate the environment properties by reading the config files for the application server. A problem was found in some installations with WebSphere where trying to locate the XML file containing the information on the server port created an infinite loop that caused the engine startup to hang. To resolve this, the search function call now has been replaced by another method that tries to obtain the same information from config service without having to locate the XML file.

Removed primary page requirement for link-object activity
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When using the link-object activity method with the history checkmark and the specified step page without providing a primary page, the link-object activity method caused a null-pointer-exception when it attempted to fetch data from the pxRequestor page. This was caused by an unnecessary reference to the primary page, and the method to retrieve the value of pyUserIdentifier has been updated.

Enhanced task queue handling for custom applications
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
In some situations, a custom agent would periodically fall over when processing a large backlog of queued items. This was caused by an exception thrown when placing a task in the queue when it is already present. The system has been updated to better handle this situation and allow agents to continue to execute with the present schedule when a duplicate task is found.
