The .NET Application Updater Component
.NET应用程序更新组件
Included with this whitepaper is a component for enabling .NET client applications to automatically update themselves. The component was written using the .NET Framework and enables you to make your application auto-updatable simply by dropping the component into your existing .NET applications and setting a few properties (ex. where to get updates from).
包括在这份白皮书中的是一个可使.NET客户端应用程序自动更新自身的组件。该组件使用.NET框架编写，这使得你可以通过简单的把该组件拖放到你现存的应用程序中并设置一些属性（比如从何处获取更新）就可以使你的应用程序具备自动更新的功能。
This component is not a Microsoft product. It is intended as a sample to get you started and as such the source is also included with this whitepaper. However, it is worth mentioning that this component has gotten a fair amount of real world use already. It has been used internally in Microsoft to enable auto-updatability in the .NET Terrarium game (<http://www.gotdotnet.com/terrarium/>). Terrarium has been installed and used by over 10,000 individuals since it was first unveiled as a beta product in October, 2001.
该组件不是微软的产品。它将被试图作为一个示例使得你能够开始，并且与该白皮书一起的还有尽可能多的资源。不过，值得提出的是该组件在真实应用中已经被大量的使用。在微软内部用.NET开发的游戏Terrarium的自动更新就使用了该组件(<http://www.gotdotnet.com/terrarium/>)。从2001年十月 Terrarium露出面纱到现在，已经被超过1万多个人用户安装并使用。
This component will be the basis for the discussion of what it takes to make an application auto-updatable. This paper will focus on how the .NET Application Updater component works and how you can use it in your own application.
该组件是讨论如何让一个应用程序自动可更新的基础。这篇文章将集中论述.NET应用程序更新组件是如何工作的，并且教你如何将它应用到你自己的应用程序中。
