VPatch 3 Release Candidate 6
VPatch 3 has been updated to Release Candidate 6, and I think it really deserves the RC label this time.

You can download it from: http://www.tibed.net/files/vpatch3releasecandidate.zip

Kichik, can the new updated NSIS plug-in be included into CVS?
It can be found in the archive under "VPatch\Source\NSISPlugin" and all the paths are 'set' for the NSIS Contrib path location and building into the plug-ins folder.
The plug-in is completely backwards compatible, but newly generated patches in v3 need this updated plug-in to leverage the new features such as MD5 checksums and file date preservation. Now that 2.06 is out this is a good time to put it in CVS.

I have attached the source code of the updated NSIS plugin (as well as a compiled version, vpatch.dll). Everything in the folder "NSISPlugin" goes into "Contrib\VPatch\Source\Plugin" of the NSIS folder, and then you're set to compile the Visual Studio Workspace (just set it to Release Build and the file will be put in the right place).

This code is the same as included with VPatch 3 RC6 but that one does not include a binary.

I'd like this code to be put in NSIS CVS so the updated plugin can be in the next version.
