IMPORTANT NOTESThis release contains select important updates highlighted in red
Configuration Database
FIXFixed an issue in the Desktop Icon action, where having links to Replicator Page Entry Templates that did no longer exist could cause the action not to be executed any more. This has been changed, the action will now work again and simply skip the missing template.
FIXFixed a bug in the Backup action where actions that were created with templates older than20150715214500 would sometimes raise an error if saved with a newer template.
CHANGEIn the Desktop Icon action, the encryption setting for new databases now defaults to "According to client preferences". This does not affect existing actions.
ENHANCEMENTThe Advanced/Regular Expression action now also allows to "search" for a regular expression, in addition to the already existing "match" option. While "match" always matches the entire string, "search" can apply to parts of the source string, even multiple times. Very useful to replace several occurrences of the same string.
ENHANCEMENTAccess definitions now can be categorized as well.
ENHANCEMENT / NEWThe Cloud Onboarding action will now also has the option to switch links in desktop, bookmarks, replicator page, and replication history to the new mail server, and optionally remove desktop icons pointing to other servers.
Analyze Database
CHANGE / ENHANCEMENTThe view "OS/HW - by IP-Address" has been changed to show IPv6 addresses in their own top-level category.
ENHANCEMENT / NEWThe view "ID Files - by Cert. & more" now also contains information about document encryption keys, like name, type, length, and hash.

UPDATEUpdated release notes
MarvelClient Upgrade
MCUpgrade (5.2.5)- No Changes -
Eclipse Plugin
MC Eclipse Plugin (2.5.3)- No Changes -
.DLL Updates (Windows)
FIX (5.0.3)Fixed a bug that caused the progress bar to always display progress text, no matter how <mc:pbar_showtext> was set. It is now once again disabled by default, and can be set if so desired.
FIX (5.0.3)Fixed a bug that prevented the Desktop Icon action from working if there was a problem in the replicator page settings. Now such a problem will only cause that replicator page setting to be ignored.
FIX (5.0.3)Fixed a bug that sometimes caused the Notes client to crash after shutdown. This only occurred in rare cases where MarvelClient could not perform a normal sync (e.g. because the ID file was missing, or because an Abort Notes Launch action was used). This fix also was backported to MC DLL 4.5.41.
ENHANCEMENT (5.0.3)The location type of the current location is now available via <notes:location_type>.
ENHANCEMENT (5.0.3)The Cloud Onboarding action will now also set $LastMailPath and $LastMailRepID in the SmartCloud location document it creates.
ENHANCEMENT / NEW (5.0.3)The Cloud Onboarding action now also can clean up links pointing to the old mail server.
ENHANCEMENT / NEW (5.0.3)The databases.xml now also contains a list of all found dir- and nsf-links.
