Member Function Documentation

virtual bool AutopatcherRepositoryInterface::GetChangelistSinceDate (  const char *  applicationName,
FileList *  addedFiles,
FileList *  deletedFiles,
const char *  sinceDate,
char  currentDate[64]
)  [pure virtual]
 

Get list of files added and deleted since a certain date. This is used by AutopatcherServer and not usually explicitly called.

Parameters:
[in] applicationName A null terminated string identifying the application
[out] addedFiles A list of the current versions of filenames with hashes as their data that were created after sinceData
[out] deletedFiles A list of the current versions of filenames that were deleted after sinceData
[in] An input date, in whatever format your repository uses
[out] currentDate The current server date, in whatever format your repository uses
Returns:
True on success, false on failure.

virtual char* AutopatcherRepositoryInterface::GetLastError (  void   )  const [pure virtual]
 

Returns:
Whatever this function returns is sent from the AutopatcherServer to the AutopatcherClient when one of the above functions returns false.

virtual bool AutopatcherRepositoryInterface::GetPatches (  const char *  applicationName,
FileList *  input,
FileList *  patchList
)  [pure virtual]
 

Get patches (or files) for every file in input, assuming that input has a hash for each of those files.

Parameters:
[in] applicationName A null terminated string identifying the application
[in] input A list of files with SHA1_LENGTH byte hashes to get from the database.
[out] patchList You should return list of files with either the filedata or the patch. This is a subset of input. The context data for each file will be either PC_WRITE_FILE (to just write the file) or PC_HASH_WITH_PATCH (to patch). If PC_HASH_WITH_PATCH, then the file contains a SHA1_LENGTH byte patch followed by the hash. The datalength is patchlength + SHA1_LENGTH
Returns:
True on success, false on failure.
