[wix-users] How to notify user about the upgradation of existing installed version to new version in Wix BA

[Phill Hogland]

The implementation of updateviewmodel.cs in the wix toolset source for the WixBA (used by the wix toolset itself) is a pattern that can be used in a mba bundle (and a similar pattern is supported in the WixStdBA).  It is based on publishing a Atom syndication feed (much like is done on the WiX Toolset site).  Any application or service can also query for the Atom feed and determine if an update is available, and thereby provide a notice to the user.

have had a look at updateviewmodel.cs code of wixstdBA source? But, this
will check for updates only when u run the bundle.

writing windows service could be an option, scheduling tasks could be an
option.

not sure, i have nt tried, just a vague guess.
