Setting up an updatable application

An updatable Application needs some update tables in which the update can be uploaded. The connection file for the update tables should be entered into the system file System.eva3.

The update database

The following tables should be imported into the project. The connection must be setup in all .table files. Afterwards, all tables must be synchronized with the update database. For saving the tables, right click at the table name and select save as from the context menu.

Table name Description
s_permission.table
s_userlinks.table
s_users.table
update_content.table
update_database.table
update_files.table
update_list.table
update_requests.table
updates.table

Setup the licence tables

The application needs for its update a licence table. The licence table contains a valid licence number in the first data record in the field LICENSE. Only applications with a valid licence number will be updated. The licence tablle should be assigned to an own connection file. If the eva/3 application will be executed as host application, all application instances with the same licence table will be informed about the upcoming update

Table name Description
sys_update.table Licence table which includes a valid licence number in the first data record in the field LICENSE.
