In depth

A closer look at Patch Maker

The life of a software product is usually marked by the release of different versions. One version differs from the previous one by a small number of changes. Some sections of code in the executable files are different, new files may be added, some even deleted. What the author of the product usually does, is provide a new version of the files either as a new re-installable product or just the modified files, compressed.The above procedure is very wasteful though. For example, if a file of 1Mg has only had say 10Kb altered within it, then why create an update patch that requires the full 1Mb. It would be far more efficient if just the altered data were used. Well this is the purpose of Patch Maker. This utility will save a huge amount of bytes by storing just the differences between files and even compressing this data.Here are some key features of "Patch Maker":? Create your first patch fast using the wizard? Fast and powerful compression system - only the differences in the files are stored? Creates very small and professional executables. Only 50Kb for the extractor itself? Interface of the extractor is 100% configurable, including all the texts, error messages and bitmaps? Preview the final look at any time during development? Produce multi-lingual updates, Make your own language templates? Patch files in the system directory? Update several versions within the same executable? Display a report when patch is completed? Retrieve installation directories from INI files or the registry base? Exclude several zones from the files to update, allowing you to preserve user-related data which is stored within files (like software protection, registration numbers etc.)
