Automatic update Solution

Because the boss does not allow the use of smart client, you have to download, overwrite, and restart the application. Program Step 3

First, we need a loader program to guide the main program.

Second, in the main program
// Obtains the assembly of the dock system.

// Case Sensitive

Assembly ASM = Assembly. loadfrom (application. startuppath + Path. directoryseparatorchar +   " SD. dll " );

// Get version information

String Curversion = Versionconfig. getversion (ASM );

// Confirmation window

Form_updateconfirm confirmform =   New Form_updateconfirm ();

// Verify version object

Checkversionsystem checkversion =   New Checkversionsystem (confirmform, " Sdsystem " , Curversion, application. startuppath, False );

Bool Needrestart =   False ;

// Update status window

Form_updatestate stateform =   New Form_updatestate (checkversion );

// Judge version and try to upgrade

Checkversion. tryupdate ( Ref Needrestart );


// If you need to restart

If (Needrestart)

{

Environment. exitcode =   2 ; // The surrounding appstarter must look for this to restart the app.

MessageBox. Show ( " Prompt: the system has been updated! Please restart! " , " Updated " );

}

Else

{

Form_sd_main doc_sd= NewForm_sd_main ();

Application. Run (doc_sd );

}

Step 3: Install the program in the following directory

The Directory of the outer layer, a loader, a configuration file, and a folder of the application.

This is the content in the penavicoxm folder.


In this way, we can control the upgrade of the application system.

Of course, this method has a disadvantage. Users cannot update the system in a timely and effective manner, and the update will be reflected only when they enter the system again.

If you want to use the Smart Client in a timely manner, or use the B/S architecture :)
