How do real upgrades work?

Post by Jones1969 »

Hi everyone,

I'm new to PureBasic (and Basic for that matter).
I am to write an app that can be upgraded with different "plugins".

Earlier, I've done "upgrades" that when installed merely replaced the old app.
But this time I need the "plugin"-type functionality, so that users can install only the upgrades/modules they need.

Would any of you like to share your knowledge and give me a hint of what to do?

Maybe use DLL's (which PB can create). Then during runtime scan for what DLL's are installed in the 'plugins' folder and if found use the functions within.
