Updating several parts of app?
I maintain and develop a port of x11/gtk application and although I'm a very newbie cocoa programmer(I'm a c/c++/asm guy) to improve the user experience I decided to write a cocoa wrapper. Yes, it's not very elegant solution but I'm not the main maintainer and moving from gtk to cocoa is a very long-term goal.
The application has modular structure with the support of plugins(which are basically .dylib files in subdirectory). What I'd want to be able to do is to be able to update the plugins themselves(and actually keep the old version too). So, ideally, I have a plugin repository online and as soon as a new version of plugin comes out, the user is prompted to download and install it.
That's a bit different from updating the whole app, so I was wondering if leveraging sparkle for this can be done in a neat way.
There are similar questions answered, but as far as I see from "Updating libraries within an app" the feature has been implemented but is it available now?
Thanks in advance for answers
