Is it possible to determine which is the latest valid version supported on the IIS Server of my application installed in powerClient mode?

This by means of a query in execution time of the application.

Thanks

Marcelo

Hi Marcelo;

  Do you mean like in the Appeon Mobile product where the App can be offline but call the "of_checkupdate" and/or "of_applyupdate" methods to see if it needs to update and/or update - when it has an internet connection?

FYI: http://docs.appeon.com/ps2020/workarounds_and_api_guide/Offline.html

Regards ... Chris

Hi Marcelo,

The application updates are automatically handled and the app is always kept up to date.  So I don't understand what problem you are trying to solve?

Best regards,
Armeen

thanks for your answer.

I need my app to alert the user that there is an update.



Is there more documentation than https://docs.appeon.com/pb2019r3/whats_new/PowerClient.html?

Here is the documentation link for PowerClient: https://docs.appeon.com/pb2019r3/pbug/ch07s03.html#creating_a_powerclient_project

There is no feature to alert the app user of an update. As I mentioned, updates are automatically handled by PowerClient rather than the user deciding whether to install update or not. As best practice, we recommend implementing session timeout and performing the update to the Web server during a time nobody is using the app.
