| Issue 7: | Auto updating activex control using fractivex plugin | |
| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
If we modify the activex control and provide a new version by modifying cab file and specify the new codebaseURL tag , the new control is not downloaded on its own unlike IE. Tried changing the code like the below : (a) iN CControlSite::Create (...) stored the codebaseURL passed at the first time. Then changed the activex control and prepared a new cab. Compared the previous URL with the new one and download if any change like : " // Do we need to download the control? if ((FAILED(hr) && szCodebase) || isNewVersion ) " It does download the new control , but Windows throws a message saying " System settings change and we need to reboot the system". Actually after reboot it updates the activex control. But this reboot requirement is being shown only in firefox and not in IE , and is certainly not desirable. -Praveen

I also forgot to mention since the code in the previous post uses GetFileVersionInfo you will need to adjust the project properties to link against version.lib. -Brent Booker
