Declaration

IPatchDetails : IDispatch

Overview

This interface is meant to edit patch details (name, company, comments, etc.)

Properties

String PatchName - Gets or sets the name of the patch (product name, short description).

String CompanyName - Gets or sets the name of the company.

String Comments - Gets or sets a more detailed description of the application.

Bool AllowProductCodeMismatches - Gets or sets the flag for allowing product code mismatching. The target and upgraded images may have different Product Code. By setting this option you will be able to create a patch between them (normally the target and upgraded packages must have the same Product Code).

Bool AllowProductVersionMismatches - Gets or sets the flag for allowing the target product version’s first (major) field to differ from the upgraded images.

Bool SuppressRemovingTempFolder - Gets or sets the flag for suppressing temporary folder removal. It is useful for debugging.

Bool IncludeWholeFilesOnly - Gets or sets the flag for including whole files in the patch (not just the differences between the old file and the new one).

Bool OptimizePatchSize - Gets or sets the flag for optimizing the size of the patch.

Bool DisablePatchSequenceInfo - Gets or sets the flag for preventing the automatic generation of patch sequencing information, by setting the value of the SEQUENCE_DATA_GENERATION_DISABLED property to 1 in the Properties Table of the .pcp file

Array PatchesToReplace - Gets the collection of patches to replace. These patches, .msp files, if found installed and registered with Windows Installer on the user’s computer, will be unregistered from the appropriate places.
