Embodiment Construction

[0045] First, the abbreviations used in the present invention are explained as follows:

[0046] PAS (Patched Application System):

[0047] The patched application system refers to the original application system to be upgraded;

[0048] PAP (Patch Application):

[0049] A patch program refers to a new additional program that will replace the original application system, and is an independent application program;

[0050] PCS (Patch Control Stub):

[0051] The patch control stub module resides in the PAS to complete the control of the patch process;

[0052] PCC (Patch Control Center):

[0053] The patch coordination control center, located in the PAP, needs to reside in the PCS during the upgrade, and coordinates and completes the module for the patch to take effect in the PAS;

[0054] PCF (Patch Control Function):

[0055] The patch control function refers to the control function group that completes the patch application control in the PCC;

[0056] PF (Patch Functi...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of software, in particular to a method for online upgrading of software. Background technique [0002] In order to cooperate with the development of computer technology, software providers are constantly updating and upgrading their various software to improve the functions of computers. Most of the existing software upgrades belong to the method of replacing part of the original program files. Generally, system restart or application program restart is required before or after the upgrade is completed. The upgrade process causes business interruption and cannot achieve the goal of online upgrade. [0003] As information technology is more and more widely used in all aspects of social life, the requirements for trouble-free operation of software in all walks of life are becoming stronger and stronger, and the requirements for continuous operation of the system without interruption are also getting higher and...
