via Command Line
Application Updates can be applied via Command Line. This feature allows users to keep SwiftSort up to date in an Automated environment and allows users to define a more considered decision of how to progress via return codes.
Syntax:-
|
wyUpdate.exe <switches>
|
Example:-
|
wyUpdate.exe /quickcheck /justcheck /noerr
|
 |
The executable can be located in your application folder (program files) which is dependant on your operating system and architecture.
|
Updating SwiftSort consists of two steps, checking for an update and then applying an update.

Step 1 - Check for available updates:-
|
wyUpdate.exe /quickcheck /justcheck /noerr
|
Step 2 - Apply Update (only if Step 1 Return Code = 2):-
|
wyUpdate.exe /skipinfo -updatepath=https://updates.thesoftwarebureau.com/SwiftSort/Live/
|
Example
|
"C:\Program Files (x86)\SoftwareBureau\Swift\Sort\wyupdate.exe" /quickcheck /justcheck /noerr
REM 0 = No update available
if %ERRORLEVEL% equ 0 GOTO NoUpdate
REM 1 = Error occured
if %ERRORLEVEL% equ 1 GOTO Error
REM 2 = Update available
if %ERRORLEVEL% equ 2 GOTO UpdateAvailable
:NoUpdate
echo **** No Update Found ****
goto End
:Error
echo **** Error ****
goto End
:UpdateAvailable
echo **** Appying Update ****
"C:\Program Files (x86)\SoftwareBureau\Swift\Sort\wyupdate.exe" /skipinfo -updatepath=https://updates.thesoftwarebureau.com/SwiftSort/Live/
goto UpdateApplied
:UpdateApplied
echo **** Update Applied ****
:End

Updates should only be applied if SwiftSort is not open. Application Updates should always be applied prior to applying Resource Updates as Resource Updates are dependant on the version of SwiftSort in use.
To apply updates access to https://updates.thesoftwarebureau.com (Public IP 3.8.228.18) is needed . To route https traffic via a proxy see Proxy Server.
For installations that have no internet access due to security restrictions upgrades can also be applied locally by manually downloading the upgrade files from an unrestricted machine. Please contact support for further instructions and to be added to the relevant upgrade email subscriber list.
