Plug-in downloading control method and plug-in downloading control system

Abstract

The invention relates to a plug-in downloading control method for a plug-in management platform to control a client to download plug-ins, which comprises the following steps that: (1) the plug-in management platform carries out safety auditing on plug-in files provided by a third party development platform; (2) the plug-in management platform tests the plug-ins which pass the safety auditing and issues the plug-ins which pass the test; and (3) the client downloads the plug-in files according to download addresses provided by the plug-in management platform and verifies the correctness of the files. In the method, auditing and downloading are carried out separately, only the plug-ins which pass the auditing can be issued by the plug-in management platform, the plug-in management platform can provide the downloading addresses of the plug-ins which pass the auditing for the client to download, and the plug-ins which do not pass the auditing are not required to be issued, so that the safety of the plug-ins can be controlled. Moreover, in the method, a step of verifying the downloaded plug-in files is set at the client, so that only the plug-in files which pass the verification are successfully downloaded and the safety is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to software control, in particular to a plug-in download control method and a plug-in download control system. Background technique [0002] A plug-in is a special program in computer software that cannot be executed independently but must depend on a certain software. A lot of software has plug-ins, and there are countless types of plug-ins. Because of their small and precise features, and the ability to implement functions that the software itself does not have, plug-ins are widely used in software. For example, in IE, after the relevant plug-in is installed, the WEB browser can directly call the plug-in program to process a specific type of file. Usually, we refer to a plug-in that must depend on a certain software as a host program. From a physical point of view, plug-ins include but are not limited to dynamic link library DLL. To implement functions that the host program does not have, the plug-in needs to use th...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] The purpose of this application is to provide a plug-in download control method to solve the problem that in the prior art, the plug-in management platform provides the download link address of the plug-in on the third-party development platform and realizes the poor security when downloading, and the plug-in management platform provides centralized management of plug-ins 1. The network speed is slow during centralized downloading, that is, the technical problem in the prior art that security and downloading speed cannot be taken into account

[0010] Another object of the present application is to provide a plug-in download control system to solve the problem that the plug-in management platform provides the download link address of the plug-in on the third-party development platform in the prior art and realizes the poor security when downloading, and the plug-in provided by the plug-in management platform The network speed is slow during centralized management and centralized downloading, that is, the technical problem that the existing technology cannot take into account both security and downloading speed
