Welcome ---------------------------------------------------- Advanced AutoUpgrader component which allows to make your software "auto-upgradable" software without single line of code! It contains built-in "Application Update Wizard", built-in multi-language support (it automatically recognize language used on user's PC and displays all messages in native language). The AutoUpgrader can download your files either from the Web or local intraweb. Current version automatically translates all wizard's contents to 27 languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Russian, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Danish, Finnish, Chinese and many others. However, if you don't want to use built-in Wizard, you still can make customized progress-dialogs using numerous events. If you store newer version of your program in password protected Web directories, you can pre-configure the username/password to access files, or let the AutoUpgrader to prompt login information from user when it's necessary. With AutoUpgrader your customers will use only latest versions of your software! Package contains two bonus components from AppControls pack: auHTTP (WinInet-based HTTP client which also supports file uploading, introduced in RFC1867, Internet Explorer's cache etc) and auThread (easy to use thread component which also works on ActiveForms of D6 and D7). 1.1 Compatibility ================= AutoUpgrader compatible with Delphi 2/3/4/5/6/7/2005, BDS 2006/2007 and BCB 3/4/5/6, has been tested on Win95, Win95OSR2, Win98, WinME, NT4, Win2K, WinXP and Vista. 2. Installation ---------------------------------------------------- 1. Unzip files from "Sources" directory to your "..\Lib" directory. 2. Start Delphi / C++ Builder IDE. 3. Select "File | Open" menu item and point to "AutoUpgraderProDx.dpk" or "AutoUpgraderProCBx.bpk" ('x' is the version of Delphi or BCB). Note: Delphi 2 users please select "Component | Install..." menu item, add "_AUReg.pas" file and rebuild the library. 4. Click "Compile" button in the package box to compile source files, then "Install" button to install it to the component palette. NOTE: Delphi 2 requires "WinInet.pas" unit which can be found in "Sources\Delphi2" directory. Please copy it to "..\Lib" directory too if you're using Delphi 2. 2.1. Note for C++ Builder developers =============================== When you are using the Internet components (i.e: auHTTP, auAutoUpgrader) don't forget to add INET.LIB (WININET.LIB for BCB6) to your project (it can be found at "CBuilder\Lib" directory). This file contains the references to routines from WinInet.dll. So if you got linker error such like following: [Linker Error] Unresolved external 'InternetCrackUrlA' referenced from C:\PROGRAM FILES\BORLAND\CBUILDER5\PROJECTS\LIB\AUTOUPGRADERPROCB5.LIB please don't worry and be aware that InternetCrackUrlA are used to parse the URL (split URL to domain name, port, document name etc). To solve this problem, just add INET.LIB to your project (use "Project | Add to project" menu item in C++ Builder IDE). 3.
