Software updating method

Abstract

The invention discloses a software updating method. The software updating method comprises the following steps: 1 transmitting a relevant part for upgrade of a new version of software to a system to be upgraded by a server, 2 loading the relevant part for upgrade into an internal memory of the system to be upgraded, 3 replacing the relevant part for upgrade of an operating old version of software by the relevant part for upgrade of the new version of software by altering an function entry, 4 utilizing the relevant part for upgrade of the new version of software by the system to be upgraded, downloading the residual part of the new version of software, and finishing replacing of the new version of software and the old version of software. According to the software updating method disclosed by the invention, obvious beneficial effects are achieved; the software with an altered format can be updated; simultaneously seamless connection of an added function of the new version of software can be provided; a new upgrade function can be embodied in one-off upgrade; the optimal adaptive capacity is provided for demand shift unknown in future, and simultaneously, the software upgrading efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for updating software, in particular to a method for a server to update software on a remote system. Background technique [0002] Software (used in mainland China and Hong Kong, Taiwan as software, English: Software) is a collection of computer data and instructions organized in a specific order. Generally speaking, software is divided into programming languages, system software, application software, and middleware between the two. Software does not only include computer programs that can run on computers (the computer here refers to computers in a broad sense), and documents related to these computer programs are generally considered to be part of the software. Simply put, software is a collection of programs and documents. It also generally refers to the management system, ideology, ideological and political awareness, laws and regulations in the social structure. Software is the interface between the user and t...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In practical applications, it is impossible to adapt to the change of the new software package format, that is, when it is necessary to read the software package in advance and only transmit the different parts to improve the transmission efficiency, because the new version of the software package format has been changed, the old version It is impossible to complete the identification of the new version of the software package. Second, the new function cannot be seamlessly connected, that is, when the new version of the software package adds a new function, if the new function makes the new version of the software upgrade, it needs to be upgraded by the original software. The upgrade can only be completed after performing certain operations on the new software package, but the old version of the software does not provide this function, and the seamless connection of the upgrade cannot be completed

The main reason for this situation is that in the existing methods, the upgrade function provided by the old version of the software is relatively single, and it is impossible to download and upgrade the new version of the software in an optimal way
