When building a Patch for a setup should a patch file contain all items that could change or just the ones I know that have changed. For example I have the following defined:
<PatchFamily Id="SoftwareUpdates" Version="$(var.PublicVersion)" Supersede="yes" ProductCode="{11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555}"> <PropertyRef Id="ProductName"/> <ComponentRef Id="RegistrySettings" /> <ComponentRef Id="File1" /> <ComponentRef Id="File2" /> <ComponentRef Id="File3" /> </PatchFamily> The two setups I have only differ by one file, say File1. Should I only have in the patch file the components that I know are different? Does it hurt to put these other components in the patch file even if they don't change? I was asking because would it make sense to perhaps have one patch file with everything that could be patched listed in it so I don't have to create this file over and over again? --Brian This message (including any attachments) contains confidential and privileged information intended for a specific purpose, and is protected by law.
