General Notes | |
|---|---|
 | Supported IBM Lotus Notes releases: 5.x, 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, up to 8.5.3 (Administrators need at least IBM Lotus Notes 7.x on Windows or Linux) Supported client-side operating systems: Microsoft Windows NT4 (>=SP2), 2000, XP, 2003, 2008, Vista, 7, and Citrix/WTS, Apple Intel Mac OS X Leopard & Lion, Linux Supported server-side operating systems: any supported by IBM (operating system independent) NOTE: Support is limited for platform and release combinations not supported by IBM |
| Linux & Mac OS X: Skinning, Realtime, Zip/Unzip and Attachment Blocking are not available on Linux or Mac OS X; Citrix, Linux & Mac OS X: the MarvelClient Upgrade module is only available on Windows (=not on Citrix, Linux or Mac OS X) MarvelClient on Mac OS X and Linux does not support the runtypes "After Login - Before Sync", "After Login - After Write" and "On first server access" - any such actions must be set to run at a different supported runtype, e.g. "After Login" |
| IMPORTANT NOTES | This release contains select important updates highlighted in red |
Configuration Database | |
| FIX | Fixed a problem where the design update from 2012-08-06 would no longer add mc."dll" to EXTMGR_ADDINS for mailbased/postopen script based installs |
| FIX | Fixed a problem with DLL update actions having a malformed XML introduced with the design update from 2012-08-06 |
| FIX | The Eclipse Plugin Update action was not added to the download view from which clients fetch new / updated actions |
| FIX | The design update 2012-08-06 should have added selectable runtypes for the DLL update action, but instead only displayed an empty option list. This is now fixed. |
| CHANGE | The config and analyze database now both display their respective database titles in the Lotus Notes client tabs - in previous releases, the tabs had hardcoded "MarvelClient Config" and "MarvelClient Analyze" labels |
| CHANGE | Changed the condition examples for citrix/non-citrix detection to use <os:citrix_no_logonsessions> over <os:citrix> |
| ENHANCEMENT | In connection management actions, the "only for locations" field now allows to enter any location names (in previous releases, one could only select from locations managed from the config database) |

.DLL Updates (Windows) | |
| ENHANCEMENT | References have been enhanced as follows: Up until Release 3.0.1, customers would always reference via <namespace:variable>. Beginning with 3.0.1, references now support the following options: <namespace!variable> - using a ! (exclamation mark) instead of the colon, the action being referenced is forced to be executed again, even if it has already been executed earlier <namespace|variable> - using a | (pipe) instead of the colon, an action will NOT be executed again = the reference will be resolved if the action was already executed earlier, otherwise resolving the reference will fail (and hence the action trying to make use of the reference) <namespace:variable> - using a colon will only execute the referenced action if if has not been executed already, otherwise it will use the result of the previous execution. |
| ENHANCEMENT | Roaming actions now come with the following return values which can be referenced via the alias of a roaming action: <roamingactionalias:access_error>: same as last_fs_roaming_failed, but for the referenced roaming action only <roamingactionalias:available_instances>: none, old, own, new <roamingactionalias:files_transferred>: set to 1 if files have been roamed (or would have, but checksum didn't change) |
| ENHANCEMENT | Positioning of desktop icons has always been screen resolution aware; however, in Notes 8 and up, textured workspace allows for less icons than non-textured workspace; this is now honored properly. |
