Specific embodiment

Elaborate many details in order to fully understand the application in the following description.But, this Shen Please be implemented with being much different from alternate manner described here, those skilled in the art can not disobey Similar popularization is done in the case of back of the body the application intension, therefore, the application is not embodied as by following public Limit.

In this application, a kind of method and device of issue light weight AKU, a kind of light weight liter are each provided Level method and device, a kind of light weight upgrade-system, and a kind of method and device for making light weight AKU, It is described in detail one by one in the following embodiments.

Fig. 1 is refer to, it is a kind of flow chart of the embodiment of the method for release upgrade bag of the application.It is described Method is generally implemented in the server end for being responsible for release upgrade bag, and methods described comprises the steps：

Step 101, the application program to be released for meeting preset requirement with system degree of coupling, make light weight AKU.

Existing client firmware upgrading mode, whether full dose upgrading or increment upgrading, are both for whole Individual software system makes AKU, therefore release cycle is long.And the technical scheme of the application then only for be System degree of coupling meets the application program to be released of preset requirement and makes light weight AKU, so as to realize applying journey The release quickly of sequence.

The application program to be released, the stage such as typically refers to have completed to develop and debug, can be supplied to Client updates the application program for using.With the application program to be released that system degree of coupling meets preset requirement, Typically refer to that the application program of software system whole updating upgrading can not be relied on independently updated upgrading.

For the client using different platform, its software system architecture may be incomplete same, but generally All by the way of layer architecture, not only including application layer, also include directly or indirectly being to apply journey Sequence provides each supporting layer of various services.The application to be released that preset requirement is met with system degree of coupling Program can include：Do not use the application program to be released of self-defined library file and use self-defined library text Part and self-defined library file do not integrate with the supporting layer that service is provided to application program it is to be released should Use program.Below by taking the client software framework using Android platform as an example, it is described further.

Based on the software architecture of Android platform, four layers are can be generally divided into from high to low：Application layer, Application framework layer (framework), system operation storehouse layer and core layer.Wherein, application layer includes A series of core applications and conventional application program；Application framework layer then runs comprising application program Necessary functional unit, application program can realize the function needed for it by using these functional units； System operation storehouse layer provides each seed routine and Java core libraries；Core layer is then linux kernel, there is provided The Core Features such as hardware driving, memory management, management of process.It is to be understood that ccf layer (framework) It is directly to provide the supporting layer supported for application program, system operation storehouse layer and core layer are connected in application between being then Program provides the supporting layer supported.

Some application programs are by using framework layer assembly, you can realize the function of oneself；Some application programs Need to realize some specific functions and ccf layer does not provide corresponding assembly, in this case application program can be with Corresponding storehouse oneself is defined and developed, and self-defined library file and application program are integrated, i.e.,：Beat Into a bag；Self-defined library file is then placed on ccf layer by some application programs, but not with ccf layer Integrate, i.e., be not compiled in a JAR bag with ccf layer, but library file is independently packed.

Above-named these three situations, to belong to and meet default with system degree of coupling described in the present embodiment The application program of requirement, wherein first two situation can consider and do not coupled with system, though the third situation with But system has coupling, and degree of coupling is relatively low, and the application program for meeting these three situations can be independently of The supporting layer for providing it service is updated upgrading, therefore this step can be for meeting treating for above-mentioned condition Release application program makes light weight AKU, such that it is able to realize the quick renewal and issue of application program.

When light weight AKU is made, for above-mentioned the first situation, application program to be released is added into light weight AKU, for the last two cases, then can be by application program to be released and the library file for using together Add light weight AKU.

The above-mentioned file to be updated can be only included in light weight AKU, it is correct for the ease of client executing Updating operation, the present embodiment also provides a kind of preferred implementation：Write for grasping in client executing upgrading The ROMPaq of work, and the ROMPaq is also added in light weight AKU.

Based on foregoing description, the process for making light weight AKU specifically includes generation bibliographic structure, replicates and wait to beat APMB package, compression packing, the so several steps of signing, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings 2, to make Android client As a example by the light weight AKU at end, the process to making light weight AKU elaborates.

Step 101-1, the client partition identical bibliographic structure for generating and installing light weight AKU.

Light weight AKU is typically mounted in the default subregion of client, for the client using android system For end, the default subregion typically refers to system (system) subregion.This step is in local file system Create and FTP client FTP subregion identical bibliographic structure, i.e.,：System catalogues are first created, then in system The subdirectories such as app, framework, lib are created under catalogue.

Step 101-2, will treat in the respective directories that packaging file copies to the bibliographic structure, it is described to wait to pack File is including at least the application program to be released that preset requirement is met with system coupling procedure.

Can will need upgrading application copy under app catalogues；If it is self-defined that application program is used Library file is placed on ccf layer in the form of independent JAR bags, can be by corresponding JAR packet replications to framework Under catalogue.

Step 101-3, write in the ROMPaq of client executing updating operation, and by the upgrading journey Sequence is copied in the bibliographic structure made an appointment with client.

For the client using android system, the ROMPaq for performing updating operation is commonly referred to foot Presents, also referred to as upgrade script, server end can include this document in the particular category of light weight AKU, Client is then obtained from the particular category of light weight AKU (both sides make an appointment identical catalogue) should File is simultaneously performed, so as to complete updating operation.

Upgrade script is mainly responsible for that the file in light weight AKU is write in corresponding system partitioning and rewritten The local light weight upgraded version number of client.This step writes the upgrade script for realizing above-mentioned functions, for example： Updater-script files, then create with system catalogues in same layer in local file system The subdirectory com of META-INF catalogues and the catalogue custom fota, and by the upgrading foot for writing Originally in copying to the subdirectory.

If it should be noted that during order in client executing upgrade script, needing to call other to hold Style of writing part or function library, then can be also copied to these executable files or function library and upgrade script In identical catalogue.

Step 101-4, by above-mentioned catalogue compression pack.

By the above-mentioned catalogue comprising application program (and related library file) and the catalogue comprising ROMPaq Compression packing.It is for instance possible to use the zip tools of compression being usually used to above-mentioned system catalogues and META-INF catalogues are compressed, and generate light weight AKU update_unsigned.zip, it would however also be possible to employ such as Lower shown zip orders are compressed packing：

$zip-qry../update_unsigned.zip./

Step 101-5, compressed package is signed, and using the compressed package after signature as the light weight AKU.

The light weight AKU that client device is approved generally only for it performs updating operation, for the ease of client Hold the source to light weight AKU and safety to verify, the light weight of compressed generation can be upgraded Bag is signed.For example：Can be signed using signature instrument signapk.jar or jarsigner, be generated The light weight AKU update.zip of final be distributed to client.

So far, the making of light weight AKU is completed by above-mentioned steps 101-1 to 101-5.Need explanation It is that above-mentioned steps are the manufacturing process that light weight AKU is described by taking the client using android system as an example, In other implementation processes, can be using different partition names, directory name, tool of compression, signature work Tool etc., as long as light weight AKU described herein can be made and successfully upgraded in client, just not Deviate the core of the application, within the protection domain of the application.

By above description as can be seen that prior art makes full dose or increment AKU needs by compiling Translate instrument, scalable is obtained to whole software system (full dose or increment) execution build processes to be upgraded The image files of installation, and the technical program is only needed for meeting preset requirement (nothing with system degree of coupling Coupling or degree of coupling it is relatively low) application program to be released, packing compression by way of make light weight liter Level bag, simplifies the manufacturing process of AKU, and the AKU size for obtaining is less, can be adapted to many Client type is planted, in client update, it is not necessary to distinguish type, subregion.

In the specific implementation, when the application program that preset requirement is met with system degree of coupling is completed to develop, adjusted When the stages such as examination can be issued, server end can make corresponding light weight AKU using this step.

For the ease of distinguishing each light weight AKU for generating, typically light weight AKU specifies light weight liter Level version number, the application scenarios numerous for firmware version variation and unit type, can also set up Light weight AKU and firmware version number and the corresponding relation of client device model.For example：Make light weight liter The version number of level bag is 20150801.0111, and the light weight AKU can apply to multiple firmware versions, then may be used To set up the corresponding relation between above-mentioned light weight upgraded version number and the plurality of firmware version；If the light weight AKU used in multiple client unit type, but can be limited in indivedual types, then can be by The light weight upgraded version number sets up corresponding relation with the client device model that can be suitable for.So as to follow-up The step of in, the information searching that can be reported according to client is with the presence or absence of the light weight AKU for being adapted to client.

Step 102, light weight upgrade information is sent to client, light weight AKU and performed so that client is obtained Corresponding updating operation.

After having made light weight AKU, can to client send light weight upgrade information, for example can by with Long interface channel between client, to client push light weight upgrade information, it is also possible to according to client Upgrade request to client sends light weight upgrade information.

In the specific implementation, above two sends mode (push mode, the request/response of light weight upgrade information Mode) all it is feasible, it is contemplated that and the latter can select to be adapted to visitor according to the information carried in client request The light weight AKU of family end installation simultaneously sends relevant information, thereby may be ensured that client executing is correctly upgraded Operation, therefore be a kind of preferred implementation, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings 3 pairs of preferred implementations make further Illustrate, specifically include step 102-1 to 102-3.

Step 102-1, receive from client upgrade request.

Light weight upgraded version number is at least carried in the upgrade request, the version number is to enter client the last time Row updates adopted light weight upgraded version number.Consider in the numerous application scenarios of firmware version and unit type Under, light weight AKU possibly cannot be applied to all of firmware version, it is also possible to cannot be applied to all of setting Standby model, can also include that client firmware version number and/or client set in the upgrade request of client Standby model；Additionally, in order to ensure to have enough spaces to be upgraded, can also include in the upgrade request Client is used for the residual capacity information of the subregion for installing light weight AKU.This step is obtained from upgrade request Above- mentioned information, can consider these information that client is reported in step 102-2, and selection is available for client The light weight AKU that end is installed.

Step 102-2, judge whether to be available for the light weight AKU that client installs, if existing, perform step Rapid 102-3, otherwise returns to client and does not update response.

The firmware version number that first can be reported according to client and/or unit type, search whether exist with it is described Firmware version number and/or the corresponding light weight AKU of unit type；If it is found, further judging what is found Upgrade more than the light weight of the light weight upgraded version number that client is reported with the presence or absence of its version number in light weight AKU Bag, for example：The light weight upgraded version number that client is reported is 20150801.0111, the light weight AKU for finding Version number be 20150818.0111, then it is assumed that exist version number more than the light weight upgraded version number new edition This light weight AKU, the AKU is the light weight AKU for being available for client to install, and can continue executing with step Rapid 102-3.If there is no the light weight AKU for meeting above-mentioned two condition simultaneously, then return to client and do not have There is renewal response.

Preferably, after qualified light weight AKU is found, before step 102-3 is continued executing with, can Judge whether client there are enough Free Partitions to install with the subregion residual capacity information reported according to client The light weight AKU：If the size of redaction light weight AKU and the mounted light weight AKU of client Difference illustrate that client has enough Free Partitions more than the subregion residual capacity that client is reported, then, then Step 102-3 can be continued executing with, is otherwise returned to client and is not updated response.

If it should be noted that the information that client is reported in upgrade request only includes light weight upgraded version Number, then this step directly searches whether there is light weight liter of its version number more than the light weight upgraded version number Level is wrapped just can be can equally realize the technical scheme of the application.

Step 102-3, light weight upgrade information is sent to client, light weight AKU and held so that client is obtained The corresponding updating operation of row.

The light weight AKU selected in step 102-2 can be directly contained in the light weight upgrade information, also may be used With comprising the address information for downloading the light weight AKU, so as to client can be according to the light weight liter for receiving Level acquisition of information light weight AKU simultaneously performs corresponding updating operation.

So far, by step 101 to step 102, a kind of method reality of release upgrade bag that the application is provided Apply example to be described in detail.By description as can be seen that because this method does not adopt traditional making complete The mode of amount or increment AKU, but only for system without coupling or the less application journey of coupling ratio Sequence makes light weight AKU and sends light weight upgrade information to client, i.e.,：Whole software system need not be waited System such as all completes to develop, debug at the latter issue of task, but individually issues the light weight liter for being directed to application program Level bag, so as to meet the fast-changing demand of application program, realizes the quick renewal of application program and sends out Cloth.

The light weight upgrade information that step 501, the reception server end send, and obtain light weight AKU.

The light weight AKU is that the application journey that preset requirement is met with system degree of coupling is directed to by server end Sequence packing is generated, and related description is referred in a kind of embodiment of the method for the release upgrade bag for providing before Word, here is omitted.

As a kind of simple and easy to do embodiment, server end after light weight AKU is made, Ke Yizhi Connect and light weight upgrade information is pushed to into client, client can be obtained according to the light weight upgrade information for receiving Light weight AKU.

In the specific implementation, client can also obtain light weight upgrade information using request/response mode, under Face combines accompanying drawing 6 and this embodiment is made into a description, specifically includes step 501-1 to 501-5.

Step 501-1, acquisition local light weight upgraded version number, firmware version number, unit type.

This step obtains the essential information of client device, including：Light weight upgraded version number, firmware version number And unit type.In the specific implementation, the interface function that system is provided can be adopted to obtain above- mentioned information, example Such as in the client device using android system, can be read by getprop () function or similar interface The attribute information of taking equipment, so as to obtain above-mentioned each information.

Step 501-2, calculate residual capacity for installing the default subregion of light weight AKU.

When being embodied as, server end is likely to return and does not update response (for example, because described presetting is divided The residual capacity in area is not enough, therefore cannot be upgraded), it is in this case, then follow-up without continuing executing with Step 502.

Step 502, the light weight AKU is installed in default subregion.

The light weight AKU for obtaining in step 501 is installed in default subregion, can first be checked and sign Whether name information is correct, for example, can be verified using jarsigner instruments, if by checking, performing Follow-up updating operation, specifically includes step 502-1 to step 502-3,7 illustrates below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Step 502-1, the decompression light weight AKU.

The light weight AKU generally adopts compressed package form, can adopt the compression adopted with server end The corresponding decompression instrument of instrument, by light weight AKU original bibliographic structure is expanded into.

Step 502-2, the application program in light weight AKU and related library file are copied to into the default subregion Respective directories in.

Still by taking the client device using android system as an example, can be by system/app in light weight AKU Application copy under catalogue under the app catalogues of system partitioning, by under system/framework catalogues Jar APMB packages are copied under the framework catalogues of system partitioning.

The local light weight upgraded version number of step 502-3, renewal.

After completing above-mentioned duplication operation, local light weight upgraded version number can be updated, for example, for employing The client device of android system, can call setprop () function or similar interface, will be locally stored Device attribute information in light weight upgraded version number be updated to step 501 acquisition light weight AKU version Number.

In the specific implementation, if providing ROMPaq (such as upgrade script in light weight AKU Updater-script files), then the function that above-mentioned steps 502-2 are completed with 502-3, generally can pass through Perform the ROMPaq to complete.
