Make sure the user has "admin" privileges before checking for updates, because it's kind of pointless to download the update if you won't be able install it anyway. This is especially important for Windows XP, where we don't have UAC. Note that UAC implies "admin" privileges, because the installer process will be elevated as needed - even if the current user is *not* an administrator.

Moved all sound effects into Qt-style resources. Sound files can be played back directly from program memory by passing a pointer to the WAVE data into PlaySound as the first argument (and using the SND_MEMORY flag), it's just not documented very well.

Some updates to the updater thread.

Make sure the TEMP path is *not* replaced when running the web-update tool, as this will prevent the updater from working correctly.

Refactored update checks into a separate thread, for better code reusability.

Added lamexp_init_process() function, which can be used to setup a QProcess object.

Use the THROW macro instead of plain "throw" in the complete project.

Added one more mirror to the list.

More code refactoring: Moved most of the Win32 API dependencies into wrapper functions in Global.cpp, which greatly reduces platform-specific includes.
2013-10-07 00:01:15 +02:00
7602317652
Some code-clean up. Removed "Windows.h" include from "Global.h", because most source files won't need the Win32 API stuff. Also got rid of some Windows 2000 compatibility cruft.

Added new function to detect the current date. Slightly more robust against manipulations.

Switched the method of how the Designer UI file is used in the UpdateDialog class to "The Single Inheritance Approach" (with "Using a Pointer Member Variable"). This is the method which Qt recommends for large projects.

Updated list of update mirrors.

Now using rand_s() to generate random numbers, which doesn't need a seed. Falling back to qsrand() + qrand() on platforms that don't support rand_s().
2012-10-13 12:36:41 +02:00

Slightly improved seeding of the PRNG (again).

Added a new configuration for initial Qt 5.0 support. Needed a few code-changes and workarounds. Highly experimental!

Try to keep the window of the Web Updater tool focused.

Better handling of system shutdown. Now using the Qt event system to broadcast a special event when the system is going to shutdown (i.e. WM_QUERYENDSESSION or WM_ENDSESSION). This gives each top-level widget the chance to react to the system shutdown *before* we return from the message handler. Doing any clean-up after returning from the message handler is impossible, because Windows will kill the process immediately after WM_ENDSESSION has been processed. Note that Windows XP (and earlier) will NOT send WM_QUERYENDSESSION or WM_ENDSESSION to processes that have a console attached! Therefore, if we have a debug console attached, we cannot do anything on these systems. Our process will be killed without any notification...
...
Also improved LameXP's IPC mechanism: There now are several slots for IPC-commands in the shared memory area ("queue support"). This way, the sender can post several commands in sequence without getting blocked. The receiver can process those at a later time.

Prevent some more dialogs from blocking a quick system shutdown.

Small fix of previous commit.

Slightly tweaked how the progress bar is updated.

Account for the fact that some web-sites send "HTTP 200 OK" successfully, but then time-out on the way to send their payload. In this case we will now give 1/2 connection point.
2011-12-02 20:05:23 +01:00

Added some info on how the Auto Update systems works to the FAQ document. Also added a "dummy" Manual file.
2011-12-02 01:14:32 +01:00
e4d414b822
Added more "known hosts" to the list: We now use a list of 64 domains, taken (mostly) from the Alexa 'top 500 sites on the web' list, to test the Internet connectivity. Also added a self-test function to check all hosts (press CTRL+F12 in the update dialog).
2011-12-01 22:16:06 +01:00

Reworked SplashScreen fade-in and fade-out code a bit.
2011-11-11 18:08:22 +01:00
5a32fc3b82
Implemented a more correct way to initialize the ITaskbarList3 interface. We now actually wait for the "TaskbarButtonCreated" message.
2011-11-07 17:13:41 +01:00

Updated installer to get rid of "parameters.nsh", now using StdUtils plug-in to get the parameters.
2011-10-08 18:20:20 +02:00

Check InternetGetConnectedState() in an asynchronous way + update list of mirrors.
2011-07-10 21:46:43 +02:00
738d8ee21e
Auto-Update improvements: Now we query InternetGetConnectedState() before testing the Internet connection. This avoids a lengthy connection test on computers that are offline anyway. Moreover the connection test will now prevent HTTP redirection. This is required, because some ISP's redirect to a "search page" if the DNS lookup fails - rather than triggering a connection error (which is what they are supposed to do!). Also added a few more hosts to the list of known hosts.
2011-05-09 22:22:15 +02:00

Added more options for Aften to the "Advanced Options" tab.
2011-05-07 00:50:18 +02:00
5ce0c7b82e
Added an option to check for "Beta" (pre-release) updates in "Final" releases. Disabled by default, not available in "Beta" versions (Beta versions always check for Beta updates).

Clean up #include directives: Don't include 'Windows.h' directly, as it's included from 'Global.h' header file.
