Ansgar Becker	a43edc883f	Implement a new external updater tool, stick that updater.exe as resource to the main executable, release and run it when the user clicks "Download build xyz". The updater itself posts WM_CLOSE messages to all Heidi instances, waits until all instances are gone, and then replaces the .exe with the downloaded one, after having copied a backup file to your temp directory.	2010-02-16 23:58:48 +00:00
Ansgar Becker	8aafc3980f	Keep memo with revision logs enabled, even if local executable is up-to-date. Can be useful for reading the changelog at any point. Fixes issue #1452	2009-11-10 22:37:03 +00:00
Ansgar Becker	6f8c67aff7	Make the memo for build infos slightly larger in updatecheck dialog. Put notes from more than only the last revision into it. By passing the revision with "?r=123" to the PHP file, it returns all notes from the current up to the used revision (but never more than 10, as TIniFile seems to have a small maximum line size of 2048 chars.	2008-09-21 22:59:09 +00:00
Ansgar Becker	b584aa5ae4	Introduce automatism for calling the updatecheck dialog. User can set the interval how often this is done in preferences dialog (default interval: 3 days, can be completely disabled). The automatic calling of this dialog should not disturb anyone as it's closed immediately if there are no updates available or if a developer version with an unknown revision is used. ... Some GUI controls on the dialog had to be moved around as well as some lines of code so everything works well with the automatic dialog closing.	2008-02-19 19:44:33 +00:00
Ansgar Becker	32a4c08a8b	Enhancements and fixes for updatecheck dialog: ... - Fix URL opened by btnBuild - Fetch and display date, revision and note of release/build - Put the download buttons into separated TGroupBoxes and add a TMemo for Notes above them - Enable a download button if "download revision" > "current revision". Enables a more exact comparision, especially for releases. - Remove dodgy "refresh" icon on form. If you stumble across this compiler notice: "FileAge(File)" is deprecated, while the used overloaded method "FileAge(File, DateTime)" is not.

Ansgar Becker	638b69ea85	Add feature 1769207 "Automatic Software Update": ... Implements a simple dialog which tells the user if there is some new release or nightly build available.
