Note The Drivers & Components tab for patches differs from the Drivers & Components tab for complete distributions. |
- Include driver updates—Enable this checkbox to include the installers that have available upgrades for your patch. If the installer is available for an upgrade, the tree item is bold and displays both a note and tooltip. By default, these installers are selected with a partial mark in the tree and will be included in the build.
If you build a distribution containing a downgrade, LabWindows/CVI displays a warning message in the Building Distribution dialog box to inform you that the original version must be uninstalled before installing the patch distribution.
If you have an installer with the same version that you included in the full distribution or if you enable the Require specific version checkbox in the full distribution, the tree item is dimmed. If the install type from the .cds file does not match the install type of the installed product, LabWindows/CVI displays the Driver Install Type Not Available dialog box. You can select a new install type in this dialog box.
