Update service

Hey!We are considering to use a 3rd party tool for updates.Currently we have a similar approach like yours in many ways but with much less functionality.Especially the rights are a problem because our program is installed in the program folder.When we started 5 years ago this was not much of problem on windows 2000 / xp. But with new Windows versions it gets more and more like a hell.

I read that it is possible to call the updater from a service. We already thought to write one as well.Then I saw in the FAQ that you are planning to implement this in version 2.8.Is it worth of waiting for this or is it better to write an own?

Best regardsMatthias

Hey Matthias,

wyBuild 2.8 is still a while off (we're trying to get 2.7 out in the next couple of months).

So yes, just create a simple service that launches wyUpdates. Nothing complicated is needed.
