Getting started with TMS FNC App Update

Prerequisites

  • TMS FNC Core installed and the runtime package added to the project.
  • TMS FNC AppTools installed.
  • A remote server hosting a control file that describes available update files.

Add the component

  1. Drop TTMSFNCAppUpdate from the palette onto a form.
  2. Set URL to the remote URL of your update control file.
  3. Optionally set Elevate to True if applying updates requires administrative privileges.

Check for a new version

{ Inside a button click or application startup handler: }
if AppUpdate1.NewVersionAvailable then
  AppUpdate1.StartUpdate;

React to download progress

procedure TForm1.AppUpdate1OnFileProgress(Sender: TObject;
  const AFile: TTMSFNCAppUpdateFile; AProgress: Integer);
begin
  ProgressBar1.Value := AProgress;
end;
