Hi
I have some versioned files in my application. When I upgrade the application, I try to check the version of each file. If the file on disk is the same version as in the package, it will not be installed again.
I found some notes about file version checking on http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/Installer.html,but it does not provide enough information. I try to add a CustomFileVersion.plist in the Resource folder and write a version check script. But it seems nothing happened. My CustomFileVersion.plist is like:
<dict>
<key>./Contents/VersionFile</key> <!-- path to versioned file, it is relative to app root-->
<dict>
<key>check</key>
<string>builtin-check-name</string>
<key>exec</key>
<string>CheckVersion</string> <!-- script ,which simply returns 1 -->
<key>data</key>
<string>2</string>
</dict>
</dict>
As mentioned in the notes, the VersionFile will not be installed again, but I found the file is updated. Is there anything wrong with my script or CustomFileVersion.plist?
Thanks!
