Changed

  • We changed database structure: in MySQL/MariaDB we renamed tables by adding a JABREF_ prefix, and in PGSQL we moved tables in jabref schema. We added VersionDBStructure variable in METADATA table to indicate current version of structure, this variable is needed for automatic migration. #9312
