Hi,

From the BES how to Auto update the Cod files with the Notification to the User that the a New update is available for Download.

[simon_hain]

the BES updates applications automatically, there is no notification for the user.
you would have to write a custom software for that (we did).

 Hi simon_hain,

Thank You for the reply, I have few Questions :

1. Should we have to write it as a sepearate Application or can we write it in the Existing Application.........

2. And for writing a Custom Software is the Software dependent on the BES Server, means are uploading the Cod files in the BES Server for the Application to update.

3. Can You help me by giving ideas about the Custom Software, Like how to Approad and what API methods to be used.

1) whatever you like
2) no, you need a server component for that, the BES information is not accessible.
3) you can use codemodulemanager to install/update/delete software on the BB

Hi,

Thank you, I have few More queries: You said that  

2.no, you need a server component for that, the BES information is not accessible.

Means If we have Update then we Have to upload In our Server and Install it

-------------------------------------

A. If we have a New Update to Our Application then, If we update  the new Updated Cod files in the BES Server then we cannot notify Our Exisitng OLD Cod/Application in the BlackBerry that we have a Update. Means a information from the BES cannot be sent that we have a Update......

---------------------------

B. This is difference Question : After update the New Cod files in the BES Server Can we Pull the Cod files from the BES Server via Code......

a) correct, the BES just updates the devices, no user interaction possible
b) no
