Question

I have a program that consists of two programs: Updater and WorkMaker.
Whenever there is an update for WorkMaker – Updater kills it, downloads updates, and runs it again.
But say I came up with new Updater program.
How do I update it? Through WorkMaker? Through the third program?
Thanks.

Answer 1

The simplest solution IMHO is:

• At the moment was requested update MainProgram downloads Updater, along with updates, after launches Updater.

• Updater closes MainProgram, makes update and relaunch MainProgram, or simply exit.

In this way you have flexible way to update your program (MainProgram), but also Updater itself, when its required.

Hope this helps.
