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.

There are two ways to create patches:

• Using ProjectManager (recommended)
  1. Create a project (if you haven't already done so)
  2. Generate the patch
  3. upload the patch files to the server of your choice
  4. update the download links in VersionInfo
  5. update the VersionInfo.info on your server
• Using PatchCreator (legacy)
  1. Generate the patch
  2. if your previous patch had any <IncrementalPatch>es in its VersionInfo, copy them to the newest VersionInfo
  3. upload the patch files to the server of your choice
  4. update the download links in VersionInfo
  5. update the VersionInfo.info on your server

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.
