Nomad related changes for upcoming releases

...

Release for Nomad, included with Nomad Web 1.0.2 and iOS 1.0.20

...

You can now set defaults for MarvelClient config sections (e.g. notes, mc, os, zip) via the notes.ini using the format: MC_Default_section_key=value

MC_Default_section_key_reset=value can be used as a one time override, the notes.ini key will be deleted after it's been read the first time.

...

Fixed an error "cannot execute action: AM::ActionSpecializer<class EXEC::RecentContacts>::GetExecutableFulltype: no executable".

...

Agents run by MarvelClient actions can now use fallbacks when getting values for MC variables. For example, the LotusScript code:

NotesSession.GetEnvironmentString("MC->ini:MCUploadDB=fall\back.nsf", True)

would return the value of the MCUploadDB notes.ini variable if it exists, and "fall\back.nsf" if it does not.

...

OS version string properly reports Windows 11 and MacOS Monterey

NOTE: the initial release of Windows 11 has a version number of 10.0.22000, so the "major version" for Windows 11 is "10". This is similar to what Microsoft did with Windows 7 and 8, which both had major versions of "6". For proper identification of Windows 11 machines, please use either os:version_build (should be 22000 or higher) or os:version_string (should start with "Windows 11").

...

Fixed an issue with roaming that was introduced in 12.0.15.

...

Testing new Attachment Blocking feature for zipped attachments, more details and final functionality will be in a future release.

...

New config variables for the age of the most recent action in a user's actions.xml:

...

FIX

Fixed a problem on Mac where clients started at the command line with the -basic parameter were not detected as running in Basic mode

FIX

Fixed a problem on Mac where clients running in Essentials mode could have an extra log.xml file created and archived at startup

...

Updated internal third party libraries

...

Updated build environment

...

Return the Windows error code and message in the logs if copying or moving a file fails

...

If a default ECL is created by MarvelClient at startup, add Domino Template Development/Domino to the ECL if the client is Notes 12 or higher

...

MarvelClient now detects whether other MarvelClient DLLs are 32-bit or 64-bit when checking for other DLLs at startup

...

Fixed a problem on Mac clients where users who stored their password in Keychain would still get a login prompt

...

Add 256-bit AES as an encryption option for actions that create a local replica (new option in Notes 12.0.2 client)

...

Add Dark Mode as an option for Workspace Background actions (new option in Notes 12.0.2 client)

...

Fixed a problem on Win64 clients where NotesSession.GetEnvironmentString("MC->...")  and SetEnvironmentString("MC->...") calls in agents that ran using the FSAC runtime would not return values if other agents ran before login

...

Fixed a problem introduced in 12.0.54 where the desktop.xml file was not created

...

Notes data directory is now detected correctly if the notes.ini uses an 8.3 short path

...

Fixed a problem where desktop icons could be missing if performing a Roaming Rollback from the Analyze DB

...

Fixed a problem introduced in 12.0.46 where roaming could cause hidden icons on the desktop to become visible

...

Added 32/64 bit indicator to log.xml and DLL properties for troubleshooting

...

Fixed a problem where activating the ZapNotes tool might not work

...

NotesSession.GetEnvironmentString("MC->...")  and SetEnvironmentString("MC->...") calls now work in agents on Win64 clients

...

Fixed a problem where MarvelClient did not properly detect existing DLLs if the Notes data directory was specified as a short (8.3) path

...

Fixed a roaming problem with 12.0.1 clients, where using a KeyFileName parameter in a stub notes.ini file could cause a "File name too long or invalid file name syntax" error at Notes startup

...

MarvelClient Essentials release bundled with the HCL Notes 12.0.2 client

...

Removed an internal restriction that prevented the Compact Desktop action from running if there was a very large number of desktop icons (~ 800 or more)
