Is it possible to check for an updated file version throw TInternet Class?

[Dionisis Divaris]

Hello to everyone.
What I'm looking for, is a way to check throw the internet for a new
updated file existance. Is it possible to make it with the current xailer
objects and if yes any small sample would be apreciated.
many thanks
Dionisis

It's easy, but I use Funcky FTP to download the new file.
This is how it works:
1) I place in my website a INI file that I download using the Xailer's
Internet classes
2) In the INI file I check version against the current installed version.
3) If the new version is newer than the old one, I use Funcky's ftp
object to download the new file.
And thats all

Dionisis,
I have in my todo list to write a component to add a full featured auto
update component to Xailer applications.
Meanwhile you can check the attached functions.

José,
that's a very good idea. I was cogitating about a similar project (comparing
the versions of the installations app) I hope I can shelve it now .
Could you implement such a method of comparing the version of the cRemoteFile?

If the remote file is a plain text file you can download it and get it's
contents:
//---
AppName=...
AppVersion=...
AppRemarks=...
//---
OTOH, if the remote file is an executable, you'll have to download it
and check the VersionInfo resource against the local file.
As per my own experience I think is better to have all the needed info
in a plain text file and download the exe/zip only when it's needed.

If the meantime, if anybody wants to alert his users of a new version
you can use something like the sample in the attached file.
