Hi there,
for an extension I would like to have the OOo update feature active. If
an update is available then the user should be directed to a HTML page
that explains what is necessary to get and install the update.
Unfortunately, my tests do not show this feature to be triggered
(changing the update xml file to a version level that is higher than the
deployed extension).
For that purpose the "description.xml" file is defined as (just showing
the relevant elements):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<description xmlns="http://openoffice.org/extensions/description/2006";
xmlns:d="http://openoffice.org/extensions/description/2006";
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";>
<version value="4.04" />
<identifier value="org.oorexx.uno.ScriptProviderForooRexx.package" />
<dependencies>
<OpenOffice.org-minimal-version value="2.0" d:name="OpenOffice.org
2.0"/>
</dependencies>
<update-information>
<src
xlink:href="http://wi.wu-wien.ac.at/rgf/rexx/bsf4oorexx/current/ooRexx4OOo_update.xml";
/>
</update-information>

You can find information about the update information here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions/Description_of_the_Update_Information
Best regards,
Joachim
The update xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<inst:description
xmlns:inst="http://installation.openoffice.org/description";>
<inst:id>org.oorexx.uno.ScriptProviderForooRexx.package</inst:id>
<inst:version>5.00</inst:version>
<inst:update type="text/html"
src="http://wi.wu-wien.ac.at/rgf/rexx/bsf4oorexx/current/ooRexx4OOo_update.html"; />
</inst:description>
Is there something I am doing wrong here?
TIA,
