Introduction

Stonebranch provides product maintenance in the form of updated product installation packages. This document lists the product installation package maintenance history for Universal Controller 7.7.x.

Product Packaging

A package maintenance level is incremented when the package changes or the package installation changes.

Stonebranch changes product version, release, or modification identifiers at its discretion when it deems an appropriate number of enhancements or capabilities have been introduced to warrant the change.

Versioning

Package version numbers are comprised of four numeric identifiers: version, release, modification level, and maintenance level.

For example, for Universal Controller 7.7.0.0:

7 = Version 7
7 = Release 7
0 = Modification Level 0
0 = Maintenance Level 0

Packaging Methods

The Universal Controller 7.7.x packages are provided in formats appropriate for the target platforms.

See Installation and Applying Maintenance for information on installing, upgrading, and applying maintenance to the Universal Controller.
