Binary patches using WebUpdate

[sphair]

I thought I'd add support for multiple-version binary patching.

First, I love the Perform Auto-Scan feature. The problem is that I can only use it for the first version of my software. It would make it very nice if I could run this once for each version of my software, and it would add multi-version multi-patches automatically.

If I understand it correctly, I have to manually select Details on every file, select Patch tab, and add another version file there. This is pertty cumbersome. Is there any other ways?

Also, how does the patcher now which versions the user have? Does it compare CRC values between all old versions or something?

At the moment it is not possible to generate a multi-version patch automatically. This would be a *very* complex process. I don't know of any tool that generates such a multi-version patch automatically. But it's on the drawing board for the future, thank you.

Yes, the installer compares the CRC values.

HTH,
