TkbmMWXMLObjectNotationOption.
mwxonoPreferAttributes controls if conversion from object notation
should prefer defining XML node values as attributes or as elements.
mwxonoAutoIdentifyArrayElement controls if conversion from object notation
should include index (i) attribute to precisely identify a row in an array.
– Updated many database adapters to prevent certain leaks on exceptions.
– Added MaxFileSize to TkbmMWFileServiceDefinition to define maximum size of file
that is allowed to be received by the server. Default no limit.
