HManageServerUpdate (Function) In french: HGèreMiseAJourServeur Allows you to manage the automatic update of HFSQL Client/Server servers by specifying the check frequency regarding the availability of updates. If an update is available, the HFSQL server is automatically updated. Remark: Two rights are required to use this function: - The rights to manage the server.
- The rights to stop the server.
These rights correspond respectively to the hRightsManageServer and hRightsStopServer constants used in HInfoServerRights and HModifyServerRights.
MyConnection is Connection
MyScheduling is hScheduling
// Enables the server update according to a specific scheduling

Remarks Default PC SOFT update server Fore each update, PC SOFT proposes packs allowing you to automatically update the HFSQL server in production (for the version currently used). These packs have been thoroughly checked by our services. Custom update server You can use a custom update server for the HFSQL server. This allows you to control the HFSQL server updates of the users. You can for example validate the use of a new version before releasing it. To create a custom update server for HFSQL servers, you must: - Install a Web server (IIS or Apache) on the selected computer.
- Create the following MIME types on the Web server if they do not exist:
- .json -> application/json
- .sign -> application/byte-stream
- .zip -> application/x-compress
- Create a directory at the root of the Web server. This directory will contain the update packs. Example: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\hfsql_packs
This directory must contain: - A json file containing the names of the packs to be used according to the versions (see below). The name of this file must be "hfsql_updateinfo.json".
- The packs corresponding to the updates (packs in zip format with ".zip" extension).
- The signature files corresponding to the packs (".sign" extension).
These packs and their signatures are available from the following address: http://package.windev.com/hfsql/.
For example: - Web server for updates: srvupd
- UNC directory containing the updates: \\srvupd\hfsql_packs\
- URL for updates: http://srvupd/hfsql_packs/
Example of Json file:
{
"pack": [
{
"major_version": 22,
"language" : "F",
"version" : "220099",
"min_version" : "220036",
"pack": [
{
"platform": "win32",
"data" : "srv_hfsql_win32_90F220099z"
},
{
"platform": "win64",
"data" : "srv_hfsql_win64_90F220099z"
},
{
"platform": "linux32",
"data" : "srv_hfsql_linux32_90F220099z"
},
{
"platform": "linux64",
"data" : "srv_hfsql_linux64_90F220099z"
