QuestionUpdate Manager Pin
spelltwister20-Jun-08 7:01

Hey all,

I'm looking for some tips on how to write an update manager for my application. This is what I have in mind and any suggestions on improvements are much appreciated as I'm putting this out of you-know-where.

When my application runs, instead of running the main program, run an "update manager" which just sends an HTTP request to my server to check which files are out of date, if any. The return from this trip to the server will contain the location of the files on my server. Then it will download these updates and run the application.

Firstly, does this open up my application to security threats?
Secondly, is this legal - I know other applications prompt the user before updating anything.
Thirdly, is there a way for the manager to update itself? I was thinking of something along the lines of another exe in the folder which is shelled and somehow knows when the first exe has closed and overwrites it, then relaunches it?

Again, any tips articles, best practices, etc are very much appreciated!
