  • Allow *.bat and *.cmd files to be executed

  • Add proper support for unicode filenames and paths in updates

New in wyBuild 1.2.0.0 (Jan 5, 2009)

  • You can now build updates from the commandline
  • Trials are now 14 non-consecutive days (that is, if your try it January 1st, forget about for a month, then try it again February 1st, you still have 13 trial days left.)
  • Rename to wyBuild from wyUpdate Professional Designer
  • WyUpdate, the open source updater, can now gracefully handle Shut Down & Log Off requests while your product is being updated
  • "Build updates" crashes when a version range other than oldest/newest is chosen
  • Executables in the temp folder should be allowed to run before or after the update
  • The 'client.wyc' file shouldn't be delta compressed (because it will always fail to patch, thus bandwidth is being wasted)
  • Crash when a new folder created in the FTP browser is double clicked
  • When files fail to upload the error message is vague and useless
  • Update the Greek & Russian languages
  • Added Brazilian Portuguese language (thanks Jenner)
