QuickPatch applied to multiple MSIs?
Hello all,
Does anyone know of a way to apply a QuickPatch to multiple MSIs?
Essentially, I have two releases within one project; one release is a smaller subset of the main release. I'd like to easily build a single QuickPatch that would patch both of these releases with just file based changes.
I understand that there seems to be a limitation based on package code with a 1-1 QuickPatch build requirement, but with regular patches built within the IDE, this is possible, so why not QuickPatches?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Quick Patches can only be made to target one MSI.
Unfortunately, this is a limitation of the Quick Patch as compared to the plain MSI patch as you note.
The Quick Patch is intended to be a simple form of the regular MSI patch, and because of this, does not have the ability to target multiple MSIs.
