AppStart - Auto-Update Application Starter
Greg Reichert, GLR Software
The purpose of this application is insure that the local copy of the application, and it dependent files, are always up to date. The remote copies of the application can be located either on LAN/WAN server, HTTP web server, a FTP site, or even a Email attachment. In addition, the AppStart can install a local copy of the entire application with on two local files present (with VFP run-time).

Description
------------------------------------------------------------------ Update History ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1/10/2004 Minor syntax corrections ------------------------------------------------------------------ Features: ------------------------------------------------------------------ * Automatically check for lastest updates of a client-side application. * Update one or more files. * Update from across a LAN / WAN network. * Update from a HTTP web site. * Update from a FTP site. * Update from EMail message attachments. * Optional automatic running of UnZip (via WinZip) on downloaded compressed files. * Optionally remove obsolete files from local folders. * Optionally execute Exe, App, or Prg on local machine during update. * Optional callback operation on source server to notify update completed. * Perform full download of entire application seperately from the normal Update method. * Requires only a single DO call in the main start program of the application to perform the check. ------------------------------------------------------------------ How it works: ------------------------------------------------------------------ At the vary beginning of the startup of the application, place a call to "Look4Update" (ie. DO Look4Update). This small procedure performs a RUN command to the AppStart.exe, passing it the full path to the main application. When the AppStart.exe first starts, it writes a file called "AppStart.mrk". This file prevents a second copy of AppStart.exe from being ran while the first is running. The file is erased when the AppStart ends. The AppStart.exe extracts from the AppStart.ini the information as to where the updates can be located. The first file it grabs is the "Files.txt" file. This file will contain the list of files that need to be downloaded, and where they are to be placed. On the Update server (or site), the folder layout MUST resemble that of the workstation, and all the files must be in their expected folders. AppStart.exe compares the checksum between a existing copy of "Files.txt" on the workstation (if there is one) and the one it downloaded. If they differ, the files in the new one are downloaded or copied from the server. The first line of the FIles.txt file is a Timestamp. Even though this line is not entirely nessacary, I use it to signal that the an update is ready for download. Therefore, I do not need to change the file listing, but only have to update the timestamp. Once all the files have been updated, the original application is called and the AppStart application is terminated. On the second run of the main application, the Look4Update routine completes the update by looking in the .\TEMP folder for any files like AppStart.*. If found, they are copied to the main application root folder.
