    sourcePath As String,
    additionalSourcePath As String,
    packageDirectoryName As String
)

Parameters

  • sourcePath
    Type: System.String

    Location of the source files to use to copy the InstallableItem InstallPointDirectory.

  • additionalSourcePath
    Type: System.String

    Location of additional source files to copy to the InstallableItem InstallPointDirectory. This is used to add files to a package that were not on the original source media (e.g. Office install configuration files) so they can be used during setup.

  • packageDirectoryName
    Type: System.String

    Optional name to use for the Package directory under the Applications server path. Can be null, in which case the directory name will be the Title_PackageId.

Remarks

PublishPackage() should never be used to publish a new revision of an update that has already been published to change the contents of the binaries of that package from one revision to the next as this is not a supported WSUS scenario. It is supported to call PublishPackage() to supply binaries to a package that was previously published as MetadataOnly. To re-publish an existing package with new binaries, first use the IUpdateServer.DeleteUpdate API to delete the original locally published package and then publish normally.

This operation requires WSUS Administrator privileges.
