Force delete files.

Hello,

When I launch an upgrade would need to indicate which files should delete the updater, can do without writing an application?

Thanks.

wyBuild automatically scans the differences between your versions. So if version a contains the following files:

  • 1
  • 2
  • 3

And version B contains the following files:

  • 1
  • 3

Then when wyUpdate installs this update it will delete the file "2". Does this make sense?

From this I deduce, what every update should include all files and wyUpdate detects files that I have to be exactly the same?

If that is so, how I can protect myself from deleting a file that originally had a content and now has another, such a configuration file initially did not have anything or not complete and after the filling.

You don't have to deduce anything, we say this explicitly in the step-by-step walk-through.

Configuration files should be created by your app and they should be stored in a folder like %appdata%. wyUpdate won't touch files it doesn't know about.
