Hi @deepakdp ,

 

You can create Patch by writing code thereby updating installscript functions.For an example you can update code to copy specific files(modified files you want to apply patch for)associated with features using FeatureSelectItem function.

Sample snippet would be:

Add your code that will update files in OnFirstUIBefore function:

function OnFirstUIBefore()
begin

FeatureSelectItem(MEDIA, "Feature_having_files_to_updated", FALSE);

if (Condition_To_Check_Software_Existence!= "") then
FeatureSelectItem(MEDIA, "Feature_having_files_to_updated", TRUE);
endif;

end

 

In the same way you can edit your InstallScript project file for patch creation.

 

Thanks,

Jenifer
