What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Two types of template formats have been implemented: fixed one, that points to the certain list of objects to be transferred, and dynamic one, that defines only excluded objects; the objects out of this list are to be transferred. Template files of old format are still supported.
· Added the opportunity to connect through SSH tunnel. (MySQL, PostgreSQL, InterBase/Firebird)
· Added the opportunity to connect through HTTP tunnel. (MySQL, PostgreSQL)
· Recreate database option is added to the graphical utility. It allows you to delete an existing database before creating a new one. (This option used to be only in the console version before)
· The ability to import data using the COPY statement is implemented. It can increase the transfer speed dramatically in some cases. (PostgreSQL)
· Auto-generated trigger names are now more informative. (InterBase/Firebird)
· Now the console version returns the error code (0 - successful termination, 1 - critical error, 2 – non-critical error).
