Upgrading to a specific version

Hi,I have many update patches corresponding to various versions of my application on my ftp server, the latest being version 1.5. Let's say my customer has 1.1 version of my application installed . How does he go from version 1.1 to any intermediate version between 1.1 and 1.5 . (All the intermediate versions are on the ftp server). i am asking this because he will be forced to go to version 1.5 only , as what i have gathered after experimenting with wyUpdate and the AutomaticUpdater control .

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi Nikhil,

You gather correctly: Right now wyBuild assumes your userbase should come up to the latest release.

We have planned the feature you're looking for to be built into the next release of wyBuild, but are still reviewing our roadmaps and timelines before we have the target release date.

In the interim, you could roll-your-own, implementing what you're looking for by following our guidance on limit-updates and passing the interim version to the server script, as outlined here:http://wyday.com/wybuild/help/limit-updates.php

Hi wyBuild team

I analyzed the solution proposed by Paul, and apparently does not meet the need proposal in that Post, because of the way it was implemented, with the use of a separate server just for delivery (or not) of the Update files, causes the client whether or not updated to the last version, and does not cause that we can deliver an intermediate version.

Is there a way to intercept the call of wyUpdate in search of the wyserver.wys file and change the reply to a previous version the last be updated?

This would be a very useful feature to have.
