InstallShield 2015
Project: This information applies to the following project types:
• | Basic MSI |
• | InstallScript MSI |
Once you have configured the settings for a patch configuration in the Patch Design view and created a new release for the patch in the Releases view, you are ready to build a patch for your upgrade.
To build a patch:
1. | In the View List under Media, click Patch Design. |
2. | In the Patch Design explorer, right-click the patch configuration item for which you want to build a patch, and then click Build Patch. |
InstallShield builds the patch according to the settings you specified for the patch configuration item. The patch is built in the location that you specified on the Common tab for the patch configuration; InstallShield appends the following subdirectories to the output location that you specified:
\PatchConfigName\Patch
By default, InstallShield also performs upgrade and patch validation every time that you build a patch. For more information, see Validating Upgrades, Patches, and QuickPatch Packages.
The build will return an error and exit if your latest setup version was built compressed.
