Using self compiled wyupdate.exe

Hi,

I would like to use my self compiled wyupdate.exe.

When I do "Build wyUpdate" from the WyBuild tool via "wyUpdate & Updates" from where comes the wyUpdate.exe? It's not compiled as I see from the size and the file date. Or in other words, where do I have to put my self compiled wyupdate.exe that it will be used during the "Build wyUpdate" process?

Thanks!

Just reference your compiled wyUpdate.exe from your build directory and reference the client.wyc built from wyBuild. Don't modify wyBuild's files -- it will mess things up.

Sure, but WHERE do I set the reference? 👽

That's my problem, I don't find / see any configuration where I can point to my wyupdate.exe

I don't understand what you're asking. You include your custom wyUpdate.exe in your installer. And make sure you host your own self-updates to wyUpdate.

Thanks, I was missing to use the Self-update server file location for my own wyupdate.exe

Hi again,

sorry, but I don't get it.

1. I create my seld compiled "MYupdate.exe" from the sources of wyupdate.2. I read http://wyday.com/wybuild/help/custom-wyupdate-version.php but the description is a bit confusing because you speak about "name it like you want" but your examples only show "wyupdate.exe" and I am not sure if you really mean THE wyupdate.exe or my self compiled exe e.g. "MYupdate.exe"?

In "Create a wyBuild project for your custom wyUpdate" do you mean "wyupdate.exe" or "MYupdate.exe?

Update: What makes me crazy is that with every build I always get the standard "wyupdate.exe" in the wyupdate folder of my project and I have no clue where this is coming from.

Whatever you called your wyUpdate.exe version.

In wyBuild, when you click Build wyUpdate, it copies the latest wyUpdate.exe from wyBuild's folder.
