100147, 21693856	Enable Request Logging	Some trace-level logging messages were added to reveal the requests and responses in the vse.log for HTTP-based traffic. This is especially useful for debugging a virtual service, when the "no match found" response is returned, indicating the VS may not have received the request that was expected.	Updated the following topics: logging.properties VSE Properties
107145	New Service Image Editor	Created a new web-based version of the Service Image Editor.	Added the following section: Editing Virtual Services
113526	VSEasy - Add support for Grouping / Automatic	Added support for virtual service groups to VSEasy.	Updated the following topic: Create and Deploy a Virtual Service with VSEasy
116041, 21792402	Cannot edit JSON response	If you changed the payload editor to text and made changes, the changes would not transfer when you moved to the original editor type. We added a warning when changing between incompatible payload types. If you select yes, the payload editor will change and there will be no data in the editor. If you select no, the editor will not change.
116042, 21784399	Edit argument values direct	In a Service Image request field carriage returns/line feeds are being replaced with OS specific carriage returns/line feeds. Also, when a Service Image is loaded (either while deployed or already loaded) request arguments are stripped of carriage returns and line feeds, superfluous white space, and leading and trailing whitespace.
123365	Removing exclusive read lock from proxy request queue in MQ recorder	Removed the exclusive read option on the proxy request queue from the WebSphere MQ recorder. Added handling for MQ reason code 2046 when opening output queues with context setting flags.
125227, 21836278	Multiple MQ VSE responses not parsing	Fixed messaging VSE filter/assertion so that the DPH filters run against only one response at a time.

126059, 21839614	Quick Start error	Fixed truncation of service target port.
126372, 21839188	Virtual service issue	VSE will detect the Expect 100-continue scenario and if no match is found in the VSI for the first part of the 100-continue transaction, then VSE will respond with a generic 100 continue (instead of a "No match found" response). The client will then proceed with the second part of the 100-continue transaction by sending us the request body and we'll do our matching then.
127690, 21848005	Content detector issues	Fixed REST content detector to handle embedded hostnames.
128285	Removing dependency on VSE Request Operation Name for determining the request channel name	JMS VSE: Use a metadata property instead of the VSE Operation Name for determining the request channel. Changed the name of the response metadata property to channel.name to match. This change is backwards compatible with older service images.	Updated the following topic: Service Images for JMS Transport Protocol
128465	Not building transactions correctly from MQ Native Agent	Fixed CAI MQ baseline/VSE builder's detection of GETs and PUTs.
128707, 21848198	VSE size exceeded exception	Fixed memory leak when doing an extended VSE recording.

129028, 21855725	VSE companion security issue	The Observed System VSE Companion using Wily Source now encrypts the password field. To trigger the encryption of the password in existing tests, reopen the test and save it; the password will be encrypted during the save.
129566, 21851177	Companion integration error	Enhanced the Metrics RegEx capabilities on the Observed System VSE Companion.
129745, 21853817	Memory leak	Updated BeanShell to 2.1.8.
130849, 21856275	JDBC virtual service - agents	When a VSE using Java protocol is redeployed, if Java agents were added or removed from the Java Listen step, the new list of agents was not always honored on redeploy. For example, if an agent was removed from the list, after redeploying the VS, the removed agent was still in play instead of being ignored. This bug has been addressed. The Java Protocol companion is now deprecated. Existing Java Protocol companions will work as they have in the past.	Removed the following topic: Java Protocol Companion
131213, 21865102	DevTest not closing TCP/IP sessions	Fixed DevTest not completely closing TCP/IP sessions.
131901, 21858907	Issues with Forced Delay	Added documentation on Forced Delay.	Updated the following topic: Forced Delay

132822, 21871743	DevTest not able to parse request	Added a fix to remove byte order marks from request/response pairs. This is only applicable to text-based request/response pairs (SOAP, JSON, XML) not to binary files.
141407, 21873539	IMS Connect transport protocol defect	Two new Boolean properties were added to the IMS Connect protocol to allow the payloads to include or exclude the 4 byte IMS Connect LLZZ length field. A value of true includes the LLZZ field while a value of false excludes it. Both properties default to false.	Updated the following topics: VSE Properties Record IMS Connect Service Images
142544	VSI from HTTP issue	Made HTTP POST parameters work with non-UTF-8 charsets when creating a VSI from HTTP request/response pairs.
142720, 21881054	Fields in VRS file blank	When making a VSE recording, the parameters of the recording can be saved to a VRS file. For the TCP protocol, two of those parameters are the request and response delimiters. When setting up a new TCP recording by reading one of these VRS files, the VSE Recording wizard was not being updated with the request and response delimiters found in the VRS file. This bug has been fixed.
153658	Add new execution modes	Added Stand In, Failover, and Learning modes	Updated the following topics: VSE Console Toolbar VSE Console Request Events Details Tab Session Viewing and Model Healing Virtual HTTP/S Live Invocation Step VSE Manager Command--Manage Virtual Service Environments VSE Properties JCo RFC Live Invocation Step CICS Transaction Gateway Live Invocation Step Virtual TCP/IP Live Invocation Step Virtual DRDA Live Invocation Step IMS Connect Live Invocation Step

164576, 21894275	LISA recorder is unable to create request arguments in the service image if the incoming HTTP request body starts with more than one &amp.	Added support for handling double ampersands in the request stream.
155850, 21897672	Duplicate logs for virtual service	Made a code change to resolve a problem where if you redeploy a VSM, the log messages print multiple times until VSE is restarted.
168780, 21915273	WSDL response validation fails	Addressed an issue where LISA was not honoring the data pattern restrictions in a WSDL when creating a VSI from a WSDL.
169665	JMS Test/VSE message consumer improvements	Added the Asynchronous check box to the JMS VSE Listen step. If the check box is cleared, messages are pulled off the queue directly by the VSE execution thread rather than in the background. This behavior assumes that you have one request channel.
170358, 21921906	JSON message at virtual service creation	Made a change to allow JSON keys that contain a colon. Previously, keys with colons prevented a recording from being created.
174523, 21924779	vse_matches.log file does not roll over	There was a code change to address an issue where multiple applications were preventing vse_matches.log from rolling over once the max file size configured in logging.properties was reached. vse_matches.log will now roll over when the limit is reached.
176119, 21936676	Issues with VSEasy	Updated the VSEasy plugin. The new version and the previous versions are incompatible. You must uninstall any previous version before installing this version. To uninstall, go to the About Eclipse menu > click the Installation Details button > select the VSE Manager UI feature and click Uninstall.
177031, 21943989	ServiceImageManager not creating service from WSDL	Fixed issue where ServiceImageManager could not create a virtual service image from a WSDL.
188824, 21950762	Issues With "100 Continue"	Fixed issue with Expect 100-continue when receiving only part of a header during a read.
189976, 21961711	Two Header And Two Body	Made LISA more forgiving when we receive the header: Content-Encoding: gzip but the content is not gzip. In that case, we log a warning and then try to process the content as if it were not GZIP.
191406	ERROR Attempted to append to closed appender named [VSEAPP] (in VSE)	The vse_matches.log file is only written to by VSE and is allowed to roll over as needed with only one active handle. All other matches information is now being logged by the application root logger. For example, during vsi creation when finalizing a recording from workstation, the matches log info that used to be logged to vse_matches.log is now being logged to workstation.log.
194349	Add additional options to ServiceManager command	ServiceManager command options were added.	Updated the following topic: ServiceManager Options
194758	Code fixes for two forum issues	Importing request/response pairs with the JMS protocol now includes standard metadata in the service image. Exporting assets from old non-JNDI JMS steps now produces the correct Asset class.

176159	Installer Enhancements	There is a single installer per platform. (The Enterprise Dashboard is no longer a separate installer.) The installer name starts with prefix "devtest" instead of "LISA", so the installer for Windows 64 Bit is called devtest_win_x64.exe. The demo server is left unchanged; it is downloaded separately and can be specified during the installation process if required. A license key file is required only for DevTest Solutions 8.0 installations that install a new Enterprise Dashboard. Extending an existing DevTest 8.0 installation requires specification of an existing Enterprise Dashboard to register with. Installation instructions are now documented for a Mac.
