AppUpdating 2.0 - update non-market apps

Time goes by, things change and old tools need to be updated. AppUpdating 2.0 is a partial rewrite of AppUpdating, a lib written back in 2014 to allow the remote update of non-market applications hosted on a webserver. Why AU 2.0? Main reason is Google's introduction of Android 8 and the...

Hi all,
you may find the most recent version here.
It was needed to solve an incompatibility issue with NB6 and it was reported to work well with Android 8/9/10.
I know that it's a long time I should've updated to a finall version and publish it in its main thread..

Sorry everybody for the backlog.

I try the new library and @Erel
but now I get the error about manifest editor

Hi, can you confirm you're using version 2.04 from the link in post #3 above?

 

[makis_best]

My version said 2.03

I download again but keep saying 2.03

 

[udg]

That's correct. I used the 2.04 label only to differenziate that specific solution for the NB6 issue. Code base is 2.03
So the problem seems that service newinst2 is not found altogh is there along with the class cl_appupdate..

 

[makis_best]

Service?

Witch service?

 

[udg]

Newinst2 is a service. It's used towake up your app when the OS registers an update.
You reference it in your Manifest and the compiler arror you reported shows a missing newinst2 service, if I read correctly

How exactly I can do that?

 

[udg]

I'm updating the original AppUpdating2 thread since even basic instructions changed since the 2.00 version of this lib.

 

[makis_best]

So... I need to follow only the basic instructions of the AppUpdating2 and forget about all the other changes on post?

 

[udg]

Fundamentally you have 3 steps to follow in order to use the lib in its b4xlib format:
1. copy the lib to your Additional Libraries folder (I suggest the B4X sub-folder)
2. add the Manifest code from this post to your app's manifest
3. copy code from the Main section in post#2 of the original AppUpdating thread to your app's Main and be sure to call it before the "install" step (when a new version of your app is found).

Old 2.03/2.04 demo is still valid; you can use it as a"template" in order to properly use the lib. It will take me some time to update it to 2.05, but it will be almost identical to the previous one. What will be interesting will be the creation of a B4xPages demo..

I make it work....

Thank you.
