Symptoms

Loading sequence of JavaScript libraries are incorrect or changed from previous versions. Currently upgrading our PIH system from PT8.55 to PT8.57 and they are encountering an error in some components. The impacted components have custom JavaScript objects configured and these libraries use some PeopleSoft-delivered JavaScript objects such as ptEvent.These JavaScript objects are causing the errors and they noticed that the loading sequence of the JavaScript libraries were changed which is the root cause of the errors that users encountering.

In PT8.57, Component JavaScript Objects are loaded before PT_COMMON and other standard JS libraries. In PT8.55, it is the opposite.

Why the sequence of the JS Libraries are different in different Tools releases?

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1.Create an HTML object with JavaScript code that uses objects defined in PT_COMMON i.e. ptEvent.

2.Assign the created HTML object as a Component JavaScript Object

3.Navigate to the component online while the developer console is open.
