2017-02-22Improve Swift about window regarding auto update UXTobias Markmann
The dialog will automatically initiate a check for updates when opened. It will show the current state of the auto updater backend, e.g. whether it is downloading or already at the latest version. This also fixes update channel selection being shown on Windows and Linux. Test-Information: Ran Swift and opening the dialog shows a short progress bar indicating it checking for updates. Afterwards it shows that it is already running the latest version, which is sensible for a dev build. Change-Id: Ie08cd2a8852e468d6007122604b532fedc24bcfe
2016-09-26Update and tidy up Sparkle software update supportTobias Markmann
Sparkle is configured to do silent automatic background updates based on the provide appcast feed. When a new update was downloaded and is ready to be installed Swift notifies the user that they can restart to take advantage of the newly available version. Test-Information: Setup a custom appcast feed with a newer Swift dev release. Tested updating with Sparkle 1.14.0 binary release using DSA keys and signatures. Did not test Sparkle update with code signed Swift builds. Tested on macOS 10.12. Change-Id: Idad461ec53963c80990e51a502cb6e28bc7b6b4e
