Visual Patch is a software development tool for building application patches and updates. This binary patch maker features DeltaMAX data compression for faster software deployment and integration with software installation and patch management tools from vendors like Installshield, Lumension, Patchlink, Shavlik, Indigo Rose and others.
Improve your software distribution and patch deployment systems with this software patching tool designed for software developers and programmers. Visual Patch features state-of-the-art binary differencing and compression algorithms. This ensures you smaller and better performing software patches.
The algorithms used by Visual Patch were developed specifically for their impressive speed characteristics. Whereas software patching was once a notoriously slow and cumbersome process, companies choosing Visual Patch have a distinct advantage. Unlike some other products, Visual Patch's full-history patching ability can update any version of your software to the latest release.
You have full control over which versions of your software can be patched with a single executable. Your users won't have to worry about finding multiple patches and applying them in the correct order as they would if you used other, less sophisticated patch builders.
Visual Patch is a revolutionary upgrade with dozens of powerful new features being added. At the core is the same amazing Lua-based scripting engine found in other Indigo Rose software development tools (like Setup Factory, TrueUpdate, MSI Factory and AutoPlay Media Studio).
The all new visual theme system allows you complete control over the look and feel of your end product including images, controls, and fonts. No other tool provides the same level of performance and ease of use.
Here are some key features of "Visual Patch":
· Fast & Easy - Visual Patch's point and click design takes the difficulty out of building even the most sophisticated patches.
· Binary Differencing - Other tools can stall out on files as small as 40 MB. Visual Patch can make quick work of gigabyte sized files.
· DeltaMAX Technology - State-of-the-art binary differencing compression creates the smallest possible patch files in less time than ever before.
· Full-History Patches - Update any previous version of your software to the latest release with one patch file. Dramatically simplifies the patching process for users. Intelligent full-history patching algorithms can update multiple older versions to the latest release from a single patch file.
· Version Management - Quickly and easily add, remove and organize all your product versions using the drag and drop workspace. Makes it easy to manage all your software releases from one environment.
· Project Wizard - Walks you through the creation of a professional software patch complete with customized dialogs, multiple methods of version detection and rollback.
· Data Security - Unlike a full software installer, patch files contain only the data needed to update older versions - making them ideal for public website distribution. Data security and integrity is ensured through a combination of 128-bit MD5 hashing, CRC-32 checksums and encryption standards.
· Script Control - A powerful scripting engine with more than 250 high-level actions gives unprecedented control over the software patching system. Features everything from registry editing to web script interaction, file downloads and more.
· Customizable Interface - A library of over twenty different screens (plus graphical skinning system) makes it easy to control the user interface of your patches.
· Multilingual - A unique language selector is included on each screen dialog, making it easy to create multilingual user interfaces and modify translations at will.
· Silent Mode - Supports the creation of both fully-interactive "wizard based" patches or completely automatic "silent" patches.
· Authenticode - Codesign your patches with integrated support for Authenticode certificates signing.
· Unattended Builds - Visual Patch fits seamlessly into your automated build processes with features like build constants and pre/post build processes.
· Reports and Logs - Improved HTML-based project reports and text-based install-time log files give you an accurate record of your patch. New options let you control the level of detail being logged, including options for recording errors and script execution details.
· Themes & Skins - Choose from dozens of pre-made themes (skins) for your dialogs or make your own. It's as easy as viewing a live dialog preview and picking your favorite style. Configure everything from fonts and banner images to body/background graphics, control colors and more.
· Integrates with TrueUpdate - Visual Patch is an integral component of Indigo Rose's software deployment suite. For a complete and fully integrated end-to-end solution, we'd recommend using Visual Patch in conjunction with Setup Factory (software installation) and TrueUpdate (automated "check-for-update" feature).
· Rollback Protection - Automatically restores the original application files if an error occurs or the user aborts the patching process.
· World-Class Support - Indigo Rose stands behind its products with a refreshingly personal approach to technical support. We'll treat you like the valued customer that you are. And when you need full consulting services, we'll work with you to ensure your project is delivered on time and on budget.
· Best Value - Compare it to other tools. Visual Patch 3.0 is easy to use, provides next generation technology, has superior technical support and is priced lower than competitive products
· Trusted - Indigo Rose Software products are trusted by over 20,000 software developers worldwide where our runtimes ultimately reach millions of desktops.
