Creating Patches

NOTE: before creating your first patch, you should integrate SimplePatchTool to your app. You are also recommended to see the Recommended Project Structure.

1. Creating a Patch

There are two ways to create patches:

• Using ProjectManager (recommended)
• Using PatchCreator (legacy)

2. After Creating a New Patch

• (PatchCreator only) if your previous patch had any <IncrementalPatch>es in its VersionInfo, copy them to the newest VersionInfo. ProjectManager will do this automatically for you
• upload the patch files to the server of your choice
• update the download links in VersionInfo
• update the VersionInfo.info on your server

NOTE: after you create a patch, a file named {PROJECT_NAME}_vers.sptv will automatically be created in the new version's directory. This file simply stores the version of the application.
