Log Message:
There has been the desire to rename "MapiClient" into "mclient"
and this "tiny" checkin serves to implment (most of) this desire;
I did not change any Windows installer files and/or MapiClient-related
.bat (batch-) scripts.
Details:
Martin already added "mclient" as clone of "MapiClient" in clients,
and Sjoerd fixed the RPM .spec files for packaging accordingly.
(Windows installer files will most probably follow soon.)
To ensure a "smooth" transition, the idea is to provide both
"MapiClient" and "mclient" with the upcoming feature release of clients.
This allows backward compatibility with the currently released "Stable"
versions of the remaining MonetDB packages.
This checking makes sure that the development versions of all remaining
MonetDB packages move from using "MapiClient" to using "mclient",
requiring the latest development version of clients, that will soon be
released as new feature release "MonetDB-Clients 1.20.0".
Once also the current development versions of the remainig MonetDB pakages
(now using "mclient" instead of "MapiClient") have been released,
"MapiClient" can/will be removed from clients.
For convenient reference, these changes are wrapped in tags
"MapiClient_2_mclient-before" & "MapiClient_2_mclient-after".
Please note:
Like various "MapiClient"/"mclient"-related (and other) changes in
monetwed/ before, these changes reflect the situation of the to-be
release new feature release of clients (MonetDB-Clients);
hence, these changes should not go life, before the respective
release has been finished.
