      Description

      Currently when there a user uploads a new version of the app. He has to refresh the IGB App Manager and then Refresh the AppStore to see the Upgrade option on the AppStore.

      Testing Steps:
      1. Install Version 1 from the Appstore
      2. Upload a new version (version 2) of the same App to the Appstore
      3. Check the Icon on the App Page (Still Shows Installed)
      4. Go To App Manager Dialog on IGB Platform
      5. Refresh the Repository List
      6. Come back to Appstore App Page
      7. Observation: Now the App Page shows the Upgrade Option

          Hi Prof. [~aloraine]
          Any comments on this will be helpful. We currently need to refresh IGB so that it can notify the AppStore that the version IGB has is a lower version and Enable the Upgrade option.

          Good catch.

          IGB App Manager retrieves and reads repository.xml from all active OBRs (app stores) at two times only:

          • IGB first launches
          • When user clicks "refresh" in GUI showing list of all OBRs (app stores)

          If a developer/user releases a new App to App Store, the App Store database changes and the repository.xml endpoint also changes as well.
          However, IGB running on the user desktop has no way to know that the App Store's "repository.xml" is now different.

          I'm not sure what the fix is. Seems like javascript running in App Store page, if it is forced to re-run, can hit the localhost IGB endpoint and somehow discover that the App currently available in App Store system is a higher version than the App Manager knows about. If that is the case, it could hit a "refresh your OBR repository.xml info" endpoint we could potentially add to IGB 9.1.0.

          Suggestion:

          • Implement a listener that hits endpoint multiple times.
          • Implement a new endpoint in IGB to trigger refresh of its Bundle list from the App Store OBR. Whenever a new App is released, "hit" IGB if it is running.

          This bug will like occur infrequently for ordinary users. In light of this, I'm move this to the top of the backlog to address at a later date.
