Problems solved by technology

However, in the traditional upgrade method, if there are multiple sources of updates, for example, different people or teams provide update packages for a software product at the same time, or update packages upgraded through different update servers, or the same team does updates at different times. The unified version number update package of the same product may also be the update package of different product lines of the same product (such as Chinese version and English version), which may cause update confusion. The result is that different software clients of the same version are updated because Data inconsistency resulted in different running results
This will have a negative impact on the normal operation and debugging of the program, and once the problem occurs, the client with different data content cannot return to the original consistent state, although the data stored in non-packaged form can be covered by a large number of updates. state, and the client program stored in a packaged form, since the update of the package file is often implemented by appending, it cannot be re-updated to make the data on all clients consistent

Embodiment 1

[0025] refer to figure 1 As shown, the existing software client generally updates and upgrades the client itself by remotely downloading the update package program on the server. However, in the traditional upgrade method, there are generally multiple servers that provide the source of the update package, which will cause update confusion. As a result, different software clients of the same version will have different running results due to inconsistent updated data. As shown in the figure, there are two servers A and B that provide update sources, the client is version 2.0 with files A and B, server A provides two update files C and D, and server B provides D and E two update files, if the client obtains the update package from the A server, the contents of the 2.0-to-3.0 and 3.0-to-4.0 update packages include A.TXT, B.TXT, C.TXT, D .TXT, if the update package is obtained from the B server, after the 2.0-to-3.0 and 3.0-to-4.0 update packages are used, the contents include A....

Embodiment 2

[0041] This embodiment specifically illustrates the process of updating through the method of the present invention.

[0042] refer to Figure 4 As shown, the current client version number is 2.0, and its update verification code is 123456. The server generates two update packages, which are 2.0-to-3.0 update package and 3.0-to-4.0 update package respectively. Now when the client wants to upgrade to version 3.0, the server first randomly generates a target update verification code 654321 corresponding to the target software version number 3.0, and writes the software version number 3.0 and the target update verification code 654321 into the verification code table:

[0043] software version number update verification code 1.0 000000 2.0 123456 3.0 654321

[0044] After that, read the original software version number 2.0, the original update verification code 123456, the target software version number 3.0, and the target update verification code 6...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for updating software client sides in a monopoly mode. The method includes firstly, generating verification codes corresponding to objective version numbers, and writing the objective version numbers and the verification codes into verification code lists; secondly, reading the objective version numbers, objective verification codes corresponding to the objective version numbers, original version numbers and original verification codes corresponding to the original version numbers from the verification code lists, and writing read content and updated files into updating packages; during updating, updating the client sides by comparing the original version numbers and the original verification codes. During the whole updating process, updating success is determined by the verification codes due to the fact that different servers generate different verification codes, so that the updating process ensures that updating of the software client sides can be only performed by same servers, and further, uniformity of updated programs and operational results thereof are guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of updating application software, in particular to a method and system for updating software clients in an exclusive manner. Background technique [0002] The existing software client generally updates and upgrades the client itself by remotely downloading the update package program on the server. However, in the traditional upgrade method, if there are multiple sources of updates, for example, different people or teams provide update packages for a software product at the same time, or update packages upgraded through different update servers, or the same team does updates at different times. The unified version number update package of the same product may also be the update package of different product lines of the same product (such as Chinese version and English version), which may cause update confusion. The result is that different software clients of the same version are updated because Inconsistencies in the...
