patch for “custom action” for mozilla updater
Monday, 10 September 2007
Here is a patch (against a slightly out of date updater.cpp on the Mozilla 1.8 branch) that would add support for a:
customaction "relative-path-to-executable"
action in the "update.manifest" for a partial or full update (.mar file) for the Mozilla update system.
I'm just chucking this up here quickly for lack of a better place to put it right now. Komodo uses the Mozilla update system and will possibly need this patch at some point.
Limitations:
- It ignores the return value of the spawned executable.
- It doesn't support arguments to the executable.
