Updater Tool for Qt

Introduction

A cross platform app updater tool for Qt

As a base started with fervor. Lots will change soon. This is not just fork but inspired project instead.

Full blown app updater tool for atleast 3 platforms i.e. Win, Mac and Linux

Let's see what I can do. Stay tuned. :)

Components

A separate updater app would be best instead of adding in app itself.

  • Updater : Separate executable.
  • Updater's handler : Connecting app and updater. Launch updater whenever required.

Why?

  • No lock on files (Dlls and including main exe)
  • Easier to handle
  • Saves compile time
  • My personal choice :)

Drawbacks ..May be ;)

  • To update updater itself requires same problem.

But we have solution to this

  • Using two apps we can solve it easily like one can replace other in update process without much problem.
