Yes, this works perfectly well, both "old-fashioned" Windows SDK based
approach and the new "purely WiX" one.

Patch is a diff between two MSI packages, in any case. With the first
approach you need MSI files, both baseline and new. With the second
(recommended) one you work with wixpdb files and torch/pyro utils. I'm
using the later - it doesn't require other tools to be installed apart
from WiX toolset itself.

Good luck.

Does anyone have an experience following those instructions?
Can you build a patch without creating a final v1.1 MSI, but just using
v1.0 as a base?


Thanks,
