Detailed Description

This class is responsible for checking and notifying about software updates.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ UpdateChecker()

drn::updating::UpdateChecker::UpdateChecker	(	networking::NotifyingSender &	sender,
		const foundation::QtPtr<::QObject > &	parent )

Full initialisation constructor that manages the update fetching operations. It initialises itself with a given NotifyingSender for sending network requests, and a parent QObject to maintain the lifespan of this object within an existing object hierarchy.

Parameters

sender	Reference to the object responsible for sending network requests.
parent	A Qt smart pointer to a QObject that acts as the parent of this instance. It ensures the object is properly managed within Qt's ownership model.

Member Function Documentation

◆ check()

void drn::updating::UpdateChecker::check ( )

Begins the process of checking if there is an application update.

◆ finishedCheck

void drn::updating::UpdateChecker::finishedCheck ( )

signal

Triggered when the completion of the application update check process.

This signal is emitted after the update checking operation concludes, regardless of whether a new update was found, no updates were available, or an error occurred during the process. It serves as a notification that the check operation has finished and ensures any dependent resources or operations can proceed accordingly.

Usage: This signal is commonly connected to a slot or lambda to handle any clean-up, logging, or subsequent actions once the update check is complete. For example, it is often used to signal that the UpdateChecker instance can be safely deleted to release resources.

◆ updateReleased

void drn::updating::UpdateChecker::updateReleased ( const drn::updating::SemanticVersion & latest )

signal

Triggered when a new version has been released relative to the built version.

Usage:

Connect to this signal in your application to receive updates when a new version is detected.
