Software Updater

Hey @all,

I'm working on a software updater. The download and so on works fine. My Problem is to install the downloaded application from within the current/old application.
As system i use mac, linux and windows but the higher priority is on windows.

Can anybody give me a hint on how to do so?

Thanks in advance

Run your installer.exe using QProcess.

The problem is that i can't replace the executeable and the dll's.

This is bit tricky, you have to use

Code:

---

QProcess::startDetached();

Call this function and immediately quits from your main process. Then the installer should take care of replacing the executable and dlls.

OK thanks, I will give it a try.
