Alex Spataru 47c6909259 Rewrite library to allow multiple updaters & JSON appcasts 
- The update definitions are now stored in the JSON format
- The QSimpleUpdater now allows updating separate “modules” of the
application, this can be useful if you are using a large application
with several updatable plugins
- You can now implement your own procedures to install the downloaded
updates

What is this?

The updates.json file is the update definitions file. In other words, it lists the latest versions, changelogs and download URLs for each platform.

The example project downloads the updates.json file and analyzes in order to:

  • Compare the local (user set) version and the remote version (specified in updates.json)
  • Download the change log for the current platform
  • Obtain the download URLs
  • Obtain the URL to open (if specified)
