Exclude the database file from all previous versions in WyBuild. If WyBuild does not know about a file, it ignores it.
Need to update only selected file
Hi,
I have developed 1 windows application using c#Now i have already placed wybuild client side files in the installation directory.
In my application i am using 1 database of sql server.I dont want to update it because client data may exist in that file.I just want to update the exe file of the software.
So how can i do this?
If you do what Omaer suggested (only add the DB file to the latest version) then you'll overwrite the existing database file with the new one (thus overwriting client data).
If you want to update a database, then put together a SQL file that will make the changes you want, then follow the instructions here: Updating databases (Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, etc.).
Tell me if this helps.
Sorry, meant exclude it from all versions (including the current version) - if wyUpdate does not know about the file, it ignores it.
-- My understanding of what you asked was that you want to update files other than the database (the database is fine as it is). If you want to update the database as well without losing client data, then refer to Wyatt's instructions.
