Features / Improvements
Installation
The Java installer has been extended to create and populate the database tables, and to set the customer name (needed to match the licence key which is installed through the graphical user interface).
It is still necessary to use sqlplus / sqlcmd / mysql (or other tools) to create the database or schema.
See Installation and Upgrade for details.
Applications

Dashboards
Views
Streams
Collectors / Exporters
Cancelling a database export now stops the export rather than allwing it to run to completion.
It is now possible to set a limit on the number or error messages that a Database Exporter can generate. See System Configuration for details.
Scripting
Internal Variables
Added "_outputMultiplier" as supported and recommended way to refer to attributes created by setting an output multiplier (instead of "_type", which still can be used).
