APIs

PAPI InstanceInfo.getVariable() method goes to the engine every time for non-existing external variables. To avoid this, we've added the method InstanceInfo.getExternalVariable(). This method never goes to the engine to look for external variable value, even if variableId does not belong to the instance. When this method does not find the variableId, it throws a InvalidVariableIdException. In order to get more information please see PAPI Javadoc. (Issue #30229)
Race condition in PAPI-WS session management appears under high load with several concurrent requesters. (Issue #30340)

Directory Services and Databases

AquaLogic BPM 6.0 MP 3 build #86775

Release Comments

If a Java Library has been introspected that contains classes with inner classes in an ALBPM 6.0 project, it is necessary to re-catalog the Java Library again. In addition, references to the inner classes should be checked in PBL code since the path or package resolution may have changed. (Issue #30042)
There have been some PAPI cache refresh improvements introduced in ALBPM 6.0 MP3. In order to leverage this optimizations, it is necessary that both the client and server side of the ALBPM solution use this maintenance pack as a baseline. If this optimization is not needed or desired, then it is still possible to have ALBPM 6.0 MP3 on the engine with a previous version of ALBPM 6.0 on the client side as this is a supported configuration. (Issue #30216)
Arguments in classes with methods that returns java.Util.Date are introspected as that same type while in 5.X were introspected as Fuego.Lang.Time, so the PBL code from older versions may not compile in 6.X. (Issue #29580)
Global Automatic and Due Transition times in ALBPM Studio were shown using relative Timezone adjustments when these should be shown without any timezone math in them. For this reason, when the project is opened in ALBPM 6.0 MP3, the dates may shown in an absolute time without any time adjustments. (Issue #29983)
A previously created ALBPM project using Java Libraries may stop compiling due to a bug fixed when resolving java method arguments IF an existing Java Library is re-catalogued. This happens if the method arguments are of type Long or Double. The method argument names will change producing method argument resolution problems. (Issue #30112)
For example: - Suppose that you have a catalogued JAR with a method that contains one or more arguments of type Long or Double:
JAVA method: save(Long id, String *name*); Catalogued Method: save(Long id, String *arg2*); Used method: save(id: 1234, *arg2*: "john");
- After applying this patch:
JAVA method: save(Long id, String *name*); Catalogued Method: save(Long id, String *name*); Used method: save(id: 1234, *arg2*: "john"); --> ERROR: Invalid value for argument '......
- So, you will have to change the name of the argument *arg1* for *name* where it is being used:
Used method: save(id: 1234, *name*: "john");
Due to a bug correction in ALBPM WE, PAPI no longer reads instance attachment information in every instance access. This means that attachment changes will not be taken into consideration until the ALBPM WorkSpace Web Application accesses from the ALI Portal until it is restarted. (Issue #30210)
The classes for customizing WorkList cells and rows are changing their names. The following are the new names:
1) ViewTableXXX to WorkListXXX. 2) StyleResolver to Decorator. 3) getDecoratedCellValue with rowIndex. 4) getDecoratedCellValue to getValue. (Issue #30223)
Due to a bug and extension included in ALBPM 6.0 MP3, PAPI-WS client proxies will need to be re-generated before they can start conversation with the PAPI-WS ALBPM 6.0 MP3 Web Application. (Issue #30263)

log in into alui - process administrator - engine - engine details
engine details section will be available again
ALSB Registration in Process Administrator throws a java.util.MissingResourceException ALSB_PUBLISH (Issue #30335)

Workaround: restart the engine
