RoussHi,
We are planning on using wyBuild on one of our solution,which can be quite large (~2Go).Imagine this situation:One of our user is using a version A. We publish a version B and C.As I understand, we have to create an update from A to B, A to C and B to C.
If the update from A to C does not exists, the user will download the update from "all" to C.In that case, is there a way to make the user download and apply update A to B, then update B to C. This will avoid huge bandwidth consumption, and on the other hand, the creation of the release on our side will take less time (Less *.wyu file to create and send to our FTP)
Thanks

Nope, just A to C and B to C.
>> "If the update from A to C does not exists, the user will download the update from "all" to C.'
No. That's not what it's for. Instead the customer will get an error and not be able to update.
Honestly, disable the catch-all update so the update creation size will be smaller and you'll just have small patch files to upload.
RoussThanks for your answer.
I have to say I'm confused, as I did some testing and found out that wyUpdate will download the update "all.to.C.wyu" in the case I mentionned.
To reproduce, I did create a version A, which I installed on my computer. Then create a version B (+Update A to B, All to B), Remove the version A, and create a version C (+Update C to B, All to C)When starting application in version A, wyUpdate (Or at least the automaticUpdater) will check for a patch from All to C.
Anyway, I did disable the compression for now, which is not required for our acceptance version (We can now deliver test release much faster, as I found out it was that part which was taking time)I'll probably re-enable this when reaching production.I kept the "catch-all" update, because without it, I need to keep track of every version used up to some point, which is not possible in our case (Lots of user, which can stay up to a month without using/updating the application, and it's not an option to tell them to re-install the newest version manually)
