Indicates the Latest Setup (or UpgradedImage) item for a patch configuration where you specify settings for the latest version of your installation.
Each patch configuration must contain at least one latest setup and one previous setup in order for you to create a patch. You can have multiple previous setups per latest setup.
Every application or setup that you intend to patch to a latest setup must be added to the previous setup node.
For example, your company supports versions 1.0 and 1.1 of an application, and you want to upgrade both of these applications to version 2.0. To create a single patch to upgrade both versions, you would add V1.0 and V1.1 as previous setups to the latest setup. Your latest setup would contain V2.0.

Method |
Adds a ISWiPatchExternalFile object to the current latest setup configuration. Patching an additional external file provides the ability to create a binary file patch against versions of an application file that have not been shipped as part of the previous setup. For example, if one of your application files was potentially updated by another setup, you should reference that file version to ensure that the file level patch can be successfully applied at runtime. |
