Using wyUpdate Without Building.Answered
AndyIs it possible to use wyUpdate to only check for updates without building to create a patch/update? My use case would be adding wyUpdate to my application to check for updates and the application will then notify the user an update is available. Can I simply store a .wys file with the version number on a server so the application can access it and check the version # without running build in wyBuild? Thanks in advance.

GangelHi Andy, I think probably you arent understand the way this works.
To answer your question: Yes Wyupdate can do what you need.
You still “Build” updates and upload to server.
Then in your app you can run the update exe silently and get a response code. This response is 0,1,2,3,4.
From memory a 2 is “an update is available”
By doing this you are running a check instead of running teh exe and doing the update.
I personally do this already.
