为了解决这个问题,我们构建了一个原型应用程序,它具有以下两个功能。
一台电脑上的多个实例被禁用。通过 clickonce 部署单实例应用程序。当用户尝试启动应用程序的第二个实例时,会弹出一条消息,指示“另一个实例已在运行”。
异步检查更新,如果存在则安装更新。如果用户运行新实例时有可用更新,则会弹出一条消息:“有可用更新”。
构建演示应用程序的过程如下:
第 1 步:使用 Mutex 类检测活动实例应用程序。
namespace ClickOnceDemo
{
static class Program
{
/// summary>
/// The main entry point for the application.
/// /summary>
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault( false );
bool ok;
var m = new System.Threading.Mutex( true, "Application", out ok );
if ( !ok )
{
MessageBox.Show( "Another instance is already running.", ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment.CurrentVersion.ToString() );
return;
}
Application.Run( new UpdateProgress() );
}
}
}
第 2 步:以编程方式处理更新
在我们这样做之前,我们应该禁用自动 ClickOnce 更新检查(在 Publish -- Updates... 对话框中)。
然后我们创建两个表单:UpdateProgress 和 mainForm,其中 UpdateProgress 表示下载进度,mainForm 表示主应用程序。
当用户运行应用程序时,updateProgress 将首先启动以检查更新。更新完成后,mainForm 将启动,updateProgress 将被隐藏。
namespace ClickOnceDemo
{
public partial class UpdateProgress : Form
{
public UpdateProgress()
{
InitializeComponent();
Text = "Checking for updates...";
ApplicationDeployment ad = ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment;
ad.CheckForUpdateCompleted += OnCheckForUpdateCompleted;
ad.CheckForUpdateProgressChanged += OnCheckForUpdateProgressChanged;
ad.CheckForUpdateAsync();
}
private void OnCheckForUpdateProgressChanged(object sender, DeploymentProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
lblStatus.Text = String.Format( "Downloading: {0}. {1:D}K of {2:D}K downloaded.", GetProgressString( e.State ), e.BytesCompleted / 1024, e.BytesTotal / 1024 );
progressBar1.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
}
string GetProgressString( DeploymentProgressState state )
{
if ( state == DeploymentProgressState.DownloadingApplicationFiles )
{
return "application files";
}
if ( state == DeploymentProgressState.DownloadingApplicationInformation )
{
return "application manifest";
}
return "deployment manifest";
}
private void OnCheckForUpdateCompleted(object sender, CheckForUpdateCompletedEventArgs e)
{
if ( e.Error != null )
{
MessageBox.Show( "ERROR: Could not retrieve new version of the application. Reason: \n" + e.Error.Message + "\nPlease report this error to the system administrator." );
return;
}
if ( e.Cancelled )
{
MessageBox.Show( "The update was cancelled." );
}
// Ask the user if they would like to update the application now.
if ( e.UpdateAvailable )
{
if ( !e.IsUpdateRequired )
{
long updateSize = e.UpdateSizeBytes;
DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show( string.Format("An update ({0}K) is available. Would you like to update the application now?", updateSize/1024), "Update Available", MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel );
if ( DialogResult.OK == dr )
{
BeginUpdate();
}
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show( "A mandatory update is available for your application. We will install the update now, after which we will save all of your in-progress data and restart your application." );
BeginUpdate();
}
}
else
{
ShowMainForm();
}
}
// Show the main application form
private void ShowMainForm()
{
MainForm mainForm = new MainForm ();
mainForm.Show();
Hide();
}
private void BeginUpdate()
{
Text = "Downloading update...";
ApplicationDeployment ad = ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment;
ad.UpdateCompleted += ad_UpdateCompleted;
ad.UpdateProgressChanged += ad_UpdateProgressChanged;
ad.UpdateAsync();
}
void ad_UpdateProgressChanged( object sender, DeploymentProgressChangedEventArgs e )
{
String progressText = String.Format( "{0:D}K out of {1:D}K downloaded - {2:D}% complete", e.BytesCompleted / 1024, e.BytesTotal / 1024, e.ProgressPercentage );
progressBar1.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
lblStatus.Text = progressText;
}
void ad_UpdateCompleted( object sender, AsyncCompletedEventArgs e )
{
if ( e.Cancelled )
{
MessageBox.Show( "The update of the application's latest version was cancelled." );
return;
}
if ( e.Error != null )
{
MessageBox.Show( "ERROR: Could not install the latest version of the application. Reason: \n" + e.Error.Message + "\nPlease report this error to the system administrator." );
return;
}
DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show( "The application has been updated. Restart? (If you do not restart now, the new version will not take effect until after you quit and launch the application again.)", "Restart Application", MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel );
if ( DialogResult.OK == dr )
{
Application.Restart();
}
else
{
ShowMainForm();
}
}
}
}
该应用程序运行良好,我们希望它能很好地解决问题。
