CheckForDetailedUpdate()

Performs the same operation as CheckForUpdate(), but returns extended information about the available update.

public:
 System::Deployment::Application::UpdateCheckInfo ^ CheckForDetailedUpdate();
public System.Deployment.Application.UpdateCheckInfo CheckForDetailedUpdate ();
member this.CheckForDetailedUpdate : unit -> System.Deployment.Application.UpdateCheckInfo
Public Function CheckForDetailedUpdate () As UpdateCheckInfo

Returns

An UpdateCheckInfo for the available update.

Exceptions

The current application is either not configured to support updates, or there is another update check operation already in progress.

The deployment manifest cannot be downloaded. This exception will appear in the Error property of the CheckForUpdateCompleted event.

The deployment manifest is corrupted. Regenerate the application's manifest before you attempt to deploy this application to users. This exception will appear in the Error property of the CheckForUpdateCompleted event.

Examples

The following code example uses CheckForDetailedUpdate to retrieve the information about the latest update. If an update exists, it installs it automatically only if it is a required update; otherwise, it prompts the user.

public:
    void InstallUpdateSyncWithInfo()
    {
        if (ApplicationDeployment::IsNetworkDeployed)
        {
            ApplicationDeployment^ deployment =
                ApplicationDeployment::CurrentDeployment;
            UpdateCheckInfo^ updateInfo = nullptr;

            try
            {
                updateInfo = deployment->CheckForDetailedUpdate();
            }
            catch (Exception^ ex)
            {
                MessageBox::Show("The update failed. Error: {0}",
                    ex->Message);
                return;
            }

            if (updateInfo->UpdateAvailable)
            {
                bool doUpdate = true;

                if (!updateInfo->IsUpdateRequired)
                {
                    System::Windows::Forms::DialogResult dr =
                        MessageBox::Show(
                        "An update is available. Would you like to " +
                        "update the application now?",
                        "Update Available",

Remarks

The CheckForDetailedUpdate method lets synchronous callers get the same extended information that asynchronous callers get using the CheckForUpdateCompletedEventArgs class.

Applies to

CheckForDetailedUpdate(Boolean)

Performs the same operation as CheckForUpdate(), but returns extended information about the available update.

public:
 System::Deployment::Application::UpdateCheckInfo ^ CheckForDetailedUpdate(bool persistUpdateCheckResult);
public System.Deployment.Application.UpdateCheckInfo CheckForDetailedUpdate (bool persistUpdateCheckResult);
member this.CheckForDetailedUpdate : bool -> System.Deployment.Application.UpdateCheckInfo
Public Function CheckForDetailedUpdate (persistUpdateCheckResult As Boolean) As UpdateCheckInfo

Parameters

persistUpdateCheckResult
Boolean

If false, the update will be applied silently and no dialog box will be displayed.

Returns

An UpdateCheckInfo for the available update.
