Conventions for Patch Packages
The following conventions exist for patch packages
- The name of a patch package must be different from the name of the package it is going to patch. The issue number or the support fix number may be used within the patch package name for easy recognition.
- Configuration dialogs and removal dialogs are not supported in a patch package.
- Versioning for patch packages is not supported. A patch is applied only once. It is not possible to upgrade the same patch. In this case, the patch must be replaced by another patch.
- A patch package is applied only to a single instance of an original package. If several instances of the original package are installed, the patch must be applied to each instance separately.
