Submarine for Mac 1.4
Description
Submarine for Mac: The Ultimate Self-Update Framework for Cocoa Developers
If you're a developer working with Cocoa, you know how important it is to keep your software up-to-date. But managing software updates can be a hassle, especially if you're dealing with multiple versions and platforms. That's where Submarine comes in.
Submarine is an easy-to-use self-update framework for Cocoa developers. Developed by Deep IT, this powerful tool simplifies the software update process and makes it easier than ever to keep your applications up-to-date.
With Submarine, you can easily manage updates for all of your applications from one central location. Whether you're working on open source or commercial projects, Submarine is absolutely free to use (with one condition - more on that later).
So what makes Submarine so special? Let's take a closer look at some of its key features:
Easy Integration
One of the biggest advantages of Submarine is how easy it is to integrate into your existing projects. The included demo project shows just how simple it can be - in fact, most developers should be able to get up and running with Submarine in just a few minutes.
Supports Multiple Formats
While some update frameworks only support certain file formats (such as DMG disk images), Submarine supports a wide range of formats including tar, bz2, gz, bz archives and ZIP archives containing APP bundles.
Not Open Source but Free
While not an open source product itself (unlike Sparkle), Deep IT has made sure that anyone can use the framework free-of-charge under one condition: You must refer to Deep IT with publisher's URL in your product at a visible place.
Delegate Methods
Another great feature of Submarine is its ability to perform post-install operations using delegate methods. This means that even if your application doesn't come as a simple. app bundle without an installer package like many other frameworks require; you still have options available when using this tool!
Version 1.2 Improvements
The latest version 1.2 includes better icon handling in host products' files which will make updating even smoother than before!
In summary:
Submarines' ease-of-use combined with its support for multiple file formats make it an ideal choice for any developer looking to simplify their software update process.
It may not be open-source but being completely free-for-use under one condition makes it accessible regardless.
And finally; Version 1.2 improvements show that Deep IT continues improving their already excellent product!
