Jak to działa
Plugin has two modes: silent and normal. Silent mode is used to check for updates on startup, normal mode is used when menu item is clicked.
First, plugin downloads the version information file and compares the "local" version (File_x_CurrentVersion from profile) with the "remote" one (FileVersion). If they differ, then:
- in silent mode plugin checks the value of LastVersion and if it differs from FileVersion, shows the message about the update. If not, there are no messages.
- in normal mode plugin shows the message in any case. If a user downloaded an update but decided not to install it, the update is still considered to be installed.
