EndFunc Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I remember seeing a UDF for a script that I THINK Valuater did that you can put in your script to tell the user if there is a new version or not. I don't want to make one from scratch so does anyone know where that is? I can't find it anymore. EndFuncAutoIt is the shiznit. I love it.
FireFox Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 @EndFunc Look at AutoIt Wrappers topic in examples scripts, im sure what youre searching for is there Cheers, FireFox.
Spiff59 Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I haven't seen any UDF, but it only takes a couple lines of code. There may be better methods, but I just park the current version in a file on one of the servers, and compare that to a hard-coded version number in the running script. If there's a mismatch, I kill the users process, launch the update program, it puts up a pretty little "updating..." window while it replaces the executable on the users drive, and then relaunches the updated script when it's done. $VersionFile = "\\Server3\IT-Files\superduper.ver" $UpdatePgm = "\\Server3\IT-Files\autoupdate.exe" ; set version in running script $Appname = "My super duper script 2.37" ; read latest version number from file on network $file = FileOpen($VersionFile, 0) $FileVersion = FileReadLine($file) FileClose($file) ; launch update program and terminate process If StringRight($AppName, 4) < $FileVersion Then ShellExecute($UpdatePgm) Sleep(1000) Exit EndIf
