SecureUPDATE Settings - Build Settings


Build Settings


Build Settings allow users to change internal binary differencing engine parameters such as:


- the creation of log files and its path

- the creation of backed up files and the backup folder path: updated files are copied to this folder

- the use of a metadata file: the metadata file is stored as plain text inside the SecureUPDATE archive which may allow for script-based searching, indexing or storing.

- extended options for SecureUPDATE binary differencing engine:

    • processing empty folders
    • processing zero-sized files
    • enabling rollback support
    • deleting out-of-use files: old source folder files that do not exist in the target folder or that were renamed
    • always perform crc32-c on files: decision making based always on crc32-c instead of file name, size and other characteristics
    • options can be overwritten before decoding: allow users to modify all the above or not, when a SecureUPDATE archive is deployed
