Hello,
I am doing following steps to create my patch. Does anyone can guide me in this ?
I tried previous build with version number 1.0.0 and new build with 1.0.1
In new version I am adding new feature and to that new feature a new file.
The patch which I created doesnot add new file. Here are the steps I follow :
Create two different builds by changing package code and version number.
Newest build has new feature and new component added.
Create patch from the Windows Installer :
1. Welcome window : Press Next.
2. Patch creation proejct : Create a new patch giving path and name of the
patch file.
3. Previous Packages :
File Name : Select the first msi file with version number 1.0.0
Missing Source Files : Ignore while creating patch
Version to check : Check major, minor and upgrade version
Version relationship : New version >= Previous Version
Match product code : Yes
Match upgrade code: Yes
Match language : No
C++ symbol files :
4. Newer Package: Select new msi file with version number 1.0.1
5. Patch package identity : Select .msp file name and keep the GUID as it
is.
6. Previous Patches : As there are no previous patches
Diskid - 2 and
File sequece - 104 (supplied by Windows installer)
7. Patch creation settings :
Allow version number to default and Allow product code to differ and
previous versions I listed earlier is selected.
And I am creating patch.
Is there any thing I am doing wrong ?
Devang.
