Software upgrading method and device

Abstract

The invention provides a software upgrading method and device, which are applied to the technical field of computers. The method comprises the steps that terminal equipment acquires current version information of target software in local equipment and uploads the current version information to a cloud platform; the terminal equipment sends an upgrading query request to the cloud platform, so that the cloud platform judges whether the target software needs to be upgraded according to the current version information and a preset upgrading rule; after feedback information representing that upgrading is needed is received, the feedback information and an upgrading prompt are sent, and an upgrading file of the target software is obtained; and the upgrading file is issued to the local equipment if an upgrading permission instruction is received, so that the local equipment upgrades the target software according to the upgrading file. According to the method, whether the target software of the local equipment needs to be upgraded or not is judged by the cloud platform, and the terminal equipment does not need to update the preset upgrading rule any more, so that the problem that the preset upgrading rule is not updated in time can be avoided, the timeliness of software upgrading is favorably met, and the actual application requirements are met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of computers, and in particular relates to a software upgrading method and device. Background technique [0002] For the OTA upgrade of terminal equipment, the existing technology usually judges whether the terminal equipment needs to be upgraded by the remote equipment. Complete related software upgrades by yourself. [0003] The remote device is responsible for judging whether the terminal device needs to be upgraded. The upgrade rules based on the judgment process must naturally be stored on the remote device. However, once the upgrade rules change, the upgrade rules need to be rewritten on the remote device, or the The remote device obtains new upgrade rules from the cloud platform. In the process of obtaining new upgrade rules from the cloud platform, the remote device needs to maintain an effective network connection with the cloud platform. Once the network connection is disconnected or delayed, the...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In the process of obtaining new upgrade rules from the cloud platform, the remote device needs to maintain an effective network connection with the cloud platform. Once the network connection is disconnected or delayed, the remote device cannot obtain the new upgrade rules in time. The upgrade process of terminal equipment is still controlled according to the existing upgrade rules, which may affect the timeliness of software upgrades, making it difficult to meet actual application requirements
