Problems solved by technology

However, sometimes the software update is only a small change in function, and choosing the full update method will cause users to wait more and consume more traffic. Although the upgrade can also be completed in actual functions, some small changes It is obviously unnecessary to make such a big sacrifice

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, content of the present invention is further described in detail:

[0026] Android applications developed by application developers will be compiled and packaged into a single file with the suffix .apk for release. It contains the application's signature information, binary code, resource files, configuration files, etc. The APK file is actually in zip format, and will be stored in the app directory of the system when installed on Android. The APK file of the published application mainly includes the following parts:

[0027] 1. META-INF directory: used to store signature information. To ensure the integrity and system security of apk.

[0028] 2. assets directory: used to store resource files. It is saved in its original format and will not be modified by compilation.

[0029] 3. res directory: used to store resource files. Including pictures, strings, etc.

[0030] 4. AndroidManifest.xml: Describes the name, versio...

Abstract

The invention relates to an increment upgrading method based on Android application software. The increment upgrading method comprises the following steps of: comparing a current version with a latest server version; downloading corresponding increment upgrading plug-in packs according to the differences of the versions; installing and running the increment upgrading plug-in packs; and modifying application program packs in increment upgrading manners set in the packs, wherein the application program pack is modified by modifying functional files and resource files in the packs. According to the increment upgrading method provided by the invention, the contents of increment upgrading comprise two different file targets, namely the functional files and the resource files, so that the increment upgrading plug-in packs only comprise modified upgrading files to the greatest extent. Therefore, the Android application software can carry out increment update on the aspects of functions and resources. Furthermore, the waiting time of a user and the flow consumption can be reduced, and the upgrading is more efficient, convenient and rapid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a software upgrading method, in particular to an incremental upgrading method based on Android application software, and belongs to the communication field. Background technique [0002] Android is an open source operating system based on Linux developed by Google. Due to its open source nature, its popularity is very high, followed by the extensive growth of electronic terminals and its user base of the Android system. Growth has also led to an ever-increasing number of applications on the platform. At the same time, the application software products on Android are becoming more and more perfect, and the size of some software even reaches tens of megabytes. With the development of technology, the speed of software innovation is also accelerating. Most of the existing application software update methods are complete updates. , that is, to re-download a complete APK for overwriting installation. However, sometimes the software...
