Small cross-platform software update installer

Robert Knight 214814dbbc Add a basic test of the updater for the non-elevated case under Linux
This test compiles two 'versions' of an application,
then runs a script which creates an install directory containing
the 'old' app and a directory containing a file_list.xml update script,
a copy of the updater and a zip file containing the 'new' app.
The script then runs the updater, then runs the installed app
and checks that it is the new version.

README WIP - Standalone update installer with no dependency on Qt 2011-08-19 19:59:21 +01:00

Once an update has been downloaded to a temporary directory,
this tool is responsible for installing the updates to the application's
directory and displaying a progress dialog whilst it does so.

Features:

 * Supports Windows, Mac, Linux

 * Standalone.  The only external dependencies are the C++ runtime library (Linux, Mac),
   pthreads (Linux, Mac) and the native UI library (Cocoa on Mac, Gtk on Linux)

 * A simple updater UI implemented using the native
   Win32, Cocoa and GTK libraries (depending on the platform).
