detailed description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is a partial embodiment of the invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts are within the scope of the present invention.

In order to overcome the prior art, it is impossible to quickly and accurately return the online version to the specified version. In this case, once the problem occurs on the line, the user can only perform the rollback operation by comparing the resource directory on the CDN, which takes a long time and cannot guarantee the accuracy. The present invention provides a new version control method for the flash application.

Embodiment 1

As we all know, the web browser has a caching function. When opening various websites, it will first find the corresponding address in the cache. If it is not found, it will go to the network to find it, for example, visit http://www.douyu. Com/player.swf, if player.swf (.swf is a file format in a flash application) has a size of 100M, then if you have visited before, there is a cache in the browser, then the speed will be very high fast. If the browser does not have a cache of this address, then you need to load the 100M file, then there will be a process, which is a role of the browser cache. So if you modify the file and let the user use the latest file, then the general practice is to add the version number after the address, for example http://www.douyu.com/player.swf? v=1.0, v=1.0 means update version 1.0, which bypasses the browser's cache, and has to reload the latest file, thus doing the file update operation.

The CDN (Content Delivery Network) mentioned above, the basic idea of the content distribution network, is to avoid the bottlenecks and links on the Internet that may affect the speed and stability of data transmission, and make the content transmission faster and more stable. By placing a layer of intelligent virtual network based on the existing Internet on the network, the CDN system can real-time based on network traffic and connection, load status, and distance and response time to users. The integrated information redirects the user's request to the service node closest to the user. The purpose is to enable users to obtain the required content in the vicinity, solve the congestion of the Internet network, and improve the response speed of users visiting the website.

It should be noted here that the resources of the same name accessed by everyone in the CDN environment may not be on one node, so when uploading resources to the CDN, the time for each node to take effect is also different. For example, to update the player.swf file mentioned above, then visit http://www.douyu.com/player.swf because the node that everyone visits is not It must be the same, so it is possible that some people visit the latest ones, and some people still access the old files. This is a problem with the version caused by the CDN environment, so the above says bypassing the browser cache. The way is not working, for example, changing the version of the file to 2.0 is also the case: http://www.douyu.com/player.swf? v=2.0, although it does bypass the browser cache, but the file may not take effect, it may still be an old file, which is equivalent to using a new version number to load an old resource, which is wasted The bandwidth has not been able to successfully load new resources. Then the way of handling version control for CDN is about to change.

Therefore, the method adopted by the present invention is a method of combining a version number and a file name, for example, http://www.douyu.com/player_2.swf, and it can be seen that the previous player.swf is changed to player_2.swf. After doing this, if the CDN does not take effect, the file cannot be accessed until the file is valid. The user does not need to care about what is cached, and the latest content can be seen when it is valid.

FIG. 1 shows a version control method of a flash application in an embodiment of the present invention. The flash application includes a plurality of resource files, and the method includes:

S2. Update the corresponding flash application based on the configuration file.

The "updated flash application" in step S1 refers to replacing the flash application of the old version, for example, the original flash application is version 1.0, the updated flash application is version 2.0, and the source application name is the flash application without the application version number. name. The naming method of the flash application updated in the prior art is flash? v=2.0, and the flash _2.xx naming method is adopted in the present invention. Flash_2 represents the 2.0 version of the flash application, and xx represents the format of the flash application. This setting bypasses the browser cache on the one hand, and avoids the absence of updates in the CDN on the other hand.

By modifying the flash application and the file naming method of each file, and collecting the file version number of each file in the updated flash application, the user needs to clear the cache to see the updated flash application and the update of each node on the CDN is not timely. The problem that the updated flash application is not successfully activated, and the version of the flash application can be updated quickly and accurately, without updating each file, preventing the user from wasting unnecessary bandwidth.

In an embodiment, before the step S1, the method further includes:

Retrieve the application name of the updated flash application. The application name of the updated flash application is retrieved before step S1 can be performed.

In an embodiment, the retrieving the updated application name of the flash application further includes:

Creating an application name of the updated flash application;

The file name of the configuration file includes the version number of the configuration file. The configuration file of the flash application corresponding to version 2.0 includes the version number of all resource files in the flash application of version 2.0. In the present invention, the versions of the resource files are not necessarily consistent, thus avoiding the browser reloading all resource files when loading an updated flash application.

For example, the information of the configuration file corresponding to a certain version is:

The above information shows three resource files, config, xml, ui/assetta.awf, and webdouyurecord.swf. ver indicates the version number. Obviously, the version numbers of the three resource files are not the same, because each time When the flash application is updated, the version of each resource file is not necessarily updated synchronously.

The version information of all the resource files in the updated version of the flash application in the present invention is saved in the corresponding configuration file. For example, the configuration file corresponding to the version A flash application is called version_A.cfg, and the corresponding version configuration of the flash version of the B version is applied. File called Version_B.cfg, when A version is required, it will load the configuration file corresponding to A. When B version is required, the configuration file corresponding to B will be loaded.

In one embodiment, the version number of each resource file in the updated flash application is stored in a configuration file corresponding to the version of the flash application based on the loadversion method in the versionmanaget class. The code corresponding to the method is:

Now when there is a problem with the release version, you can only restore the file through SVN. This is time consuming and error-prone. If you use this configuration to deal with it, once there is a problem, you can immediately return to the specified version in the background, and the user will not repeat it. Loading unnecessary resources causes a waste of resources.

In an embodiment, the step S1 further includes:

The real environment in the present invention is the environment of the user, and the test environment is an environment opposite to the real environment, meaning the environment of the developer.

In an embodiment, the step S1 further includes:

In an embodiment, the step S2 further includes:

S2.2. When the flash application is in a real environment, update the resource file to a resource file in the updated flash application that is the same as the source resource file name of the resource file.

Step S2 needs to use the getVersionUrl method in the versionmanaget class, which is a class responsible for version number management. It saves information about a version of all files, and uses this class to handle version number management. This method can obtain updated versions. Specify the name of the file with the version number. The execution flow is as follows:

1. To take the player.swf file with the name after the version number, you will play.swf Pass to the getVersionUrl method.

2. Determine whether it is a real environment, if it is not the real environment, use the name player.swf, and then add a timestamp to avoid browser cache.

3. If it is a real environment, then from the configuration file loaded based on the loadVersion method, find the attribute corresponding to the name player.swf (the file size and version number information after the configuration file is converted into the format recognizable by the flash application are called For the attribute), then get the corresponding version number, and then assemble into the player_ version number. swf.

In one embodiment, the configuration file is converted to a format recognizable by the flash application based on the setversion method in the versionmanaget class. The setversion method is a method in the versionManager class, which is used to set the configuration information of a file version number. Each file here contains the file path, file size, file name, version number, etc. The main version used here is the version number. Field, then use the file name to make a unique index.

The code corresponding to the setversion method is as follows:

In an embodiment, the step S2.2 further includes: adding a timestamp after the file name of the resource file when the flash application is in the test environment.

The version rollback means that the updated version of the flash application is rolled back to the old version, which is related to the version number. You must know that the version number can be rolled back. For example, if a product needs to release a new version to the online, then the current online version is the A version. The new version to be sent is the B version, and then the B version is released to the online, but it is found to be serious after being sent. The problem caused the user to be unable to use, this time you need to fall back to the previous version of the stable version A, which is the role of the version fallback.

In an embodiment, the version control method of the flash application further includes:

The method of rollback is the same as the idea of updating. The version control is based on the configuration file and will not be described again.
