Problems solved by technology

[0007] This method is very restrictive and cannot perform a complete update of the application, which may cause inconsistencies in the functions of the constituent files of the application and cause a crash
The basic component files are generally large, which also wastes network bandwidth resources, and is prone to download failures, resulting in a low update success rate
With the continuous enhancement of application functions, the update of the basic component files brings more and more download pressure to the server

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for updating application programs. The method comprises the following steps of: acquiring one or more first files of a first version of the application programs, and one or more second files of a second version of the application programs; generating the update difference files of the one or more first files and the corresponding one or more second files; issuing the update difference files comprising download addresses; generating configuration files comprising the version information of the second version and the download addresses of the update difference files; issuing the configuration files. According to the method and the device disclosed by the invention, clients are prevented from blindly accessing a server to request to update service, thus reducing the response frequency of the server and decreasing the resource consumption of the server; meanwhile, the volume of each of the update difference files produced by data difference is greatly reduced compared with a complete version update data package, thus greatly reducing network bandwidth resources, and increasing download success rate and update success rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of telecommunication technology, in particular to an application program update method and an application program update device. Background technique [0002] When the application program has defects or some functions need to be added, it is necessary to upgrade the version of the application program on the client. [0003] Currently, there are two ways to upgrade client applications: [0004] One method is that the server makes all the constituent files contained in the new version of the application into a single installer for the client to download and install. The client downloads and runs the installation program with the server, and uses all the constituent files in the new version of the application to replace all the constituent files in the client's old version of the application. [0005] This method will lead to repeated installation operations, the update steps are complicated and meaningless, th...
