Problem summary
Complex nested business objects failed to resolve in some cases. USER AFFECTED: Business Process Manager Advanced, Standard and Express. PROBLEM DETAILED DESCRIPTION: The Coach framework has always supported recursive data structures - however; in this case, the nested structures were in a form that the resolution algorithm was failing. The key scenario was multiple recursive structures, under different paths of the same Business Object. These paths were being processed in parallel, using the same cache objects, and hence were overlapping and intefering with each other.
Problem conclusion
The issue has been fixed in all releases beyond and including 8.0.1. The code change essentially involved retaining cached data until such time it could be garbage collected, instead of diligently cleaning up. The algorithm was attempting to always clean up after itself when resolving items, however, this cleanup (removal of items from the cache) caused a parallel resolution to run infinitely.
