Abstract

The invention relates to a software update method and a software update system. The method comprises the following steps: a client sends upgrading inquiring information to a server, and the upgrading inquiring information comprises client version information; the client receives update information returned by the server when the server judges that update is needed according to the client version information and server upgrading target version information, and the update information comprises increment update pack information; the client sends download requesting information to the server, and the download requesting information comprises the increment update pack information; and the client receives an increment update pack sent by the server and corresponding to the increment update pack information, and updates according to the increment update pack. The system is upgraded through the scheme, does not need to download all complete installation packs from the server, and greatly reduces the downloading data volume in upgrading, therefore, the band width occupied in downloading is less, the band width is saved, the downloading success rate is improved, and time consumed in upgrading and updating is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a software update method and a software update system. Background technique [0002] When the existing software is used, it is usually necessary to upgrade the software due to reasons such as patch repair and further increase of functions. In the prior art, when software is upgraded, a full update method is usually used for the upgrade. The so-called full update refers to updating with a complete installation package including all program files and data files. A specific process of using the full update method to upgrade is: when the client process starts or runs for a period of time, it sends an upgrade query message to the server and asks if the server has an update. The upgrade query message contains the current version information of the current client ; After the server receives the upgrade query information, it judges whether it needs to be updated by comparing the v...
