Took me about 5 hours (I think) to write this. Would have been faster if I could have figured out how to get echo() to work properly without having to comment out code to do it.

It didn't come with a license, but if you're putting this into a closed source application, you'd better contact the author. <?php //From: https://davidwalsh.name/create-zip-php function create_zip($files = array(),$destination = '',$overwrite = false) { //if the zip file already exists and overwrite is false, return false if(file_exists($destination) && !$overwrite) { return false; } //vars $valid_files = array(); //if files were passed in... if(is_array($files)) { //cycle through each file foreach($files as $file) { //make sure the file exists if(file_exists($file)) { $valid_files[] = $file; } } } //if we have good files... if(count($valid_files)) { //create the archive $zip = new ZipArchive(); if($zip->open($destination,$overwrite ?

The client will then have to check if the last oldest manifest received in the zipped file has a child that is newer than the client's version, and request it (I'll be writing a separate script for requesting specific manifests). Here's some example code showing how a client should use this: /// <summary> /// Connects to a webserver and gives the client's version to "patch.php". /// This will result in receiving one or two manifests (for incremental /// updates). /// </summary> private void GetManifestAsync() { //This executable is expected to live inside "The Sims Online\TSOClient\", //which is where this file is also expected to live. if (!File.Exists("PatchConfig.ini")) { //TODO: This IP is ONLY for testing. Since this will be the "default" //IP, it should be set to the IP of a live server. WebRequest Request = WebRequest.Create("https://localhost/patch.php?Version=0001"); Request.BeginGetResponse(new AsyncCallback(OnGetResponse), Request); } else { BinaryReader Reader = new BinaryReader(File.Open("PatchConfig.ini", FileMode.Open)); string IP = Reader.ReadString().Replace("IP: ", ""); int Port = int.Parse(Reader.ReadString().Replace("Port: ", "")); } } private void OnGetResponse(IAsyncResult AR) { WebRequest Request = (WebRequest)AR.AsyncState; WebResponse Response = Request.EndGetResponse(AR); if (Response.Headers["Content-Description"] == "No New Manifest") { //TODO: Show a messagebox informing the user that no new updates are available. return; } //There were at least two new manifests, so they were zipped together. else if (Response.Headers["Content-Description"] == "Zipped File Transfer") { ZipOutputStream ZOutputStream = new ZipOutputStream(Response.GetResponseStream()); BinaryReader Reader = new BinaryReader(ZOutputStream); } //There was only one new manifest. else if (Response.Headers["Content-Description"] == "File Transfer") { } } --v Unix-version <?php /The contents of this file are subject to the Mozilla Public License Version 1.1 (the "License"); you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.

Afr0	Thanks to Jay for the idea for this script!
Sunday, 12 February 2012, 14:56
Afr0	I realized that since this script will only send the first manifest it can find that is newer than a client's version, there's a possibility that there are newer versions than the one the client received. Therefore I added the ability to specify a parent in a manifest. If this script finds a parent in the newest manifest, it'll zip it along with the one it found and send it. Then the client has to check if the newest manifest has a parent specified, in which case it should fetch that as well. In case it isn't obvious from the script, a manifest's syntax is as follows: Parent="OPTIONAL" Child="OPTIONAL" /patches/File1.dll /patches/File2.exe etc --v
