This document lists changes made to the Autoupdate UI API.
+ + +@FOOTER@
+ + ++ The AutoUpdate UI module contains user visible elements (actions in menu, + dialogs), that allow any users to download new, or existing modules from + a pre-registered or manually registered update centers. In addition + the module also provides an API to allow other modules to + invoke pieces of the user related work flow (dialogs, wizards) directly + at moments independent on the rest of the provided UI. +
++ XXX +
++ The module is part of NetBeans IDE distribution for long time and its + functionality is covered and tested by many eyes using NetBeans IDE. + The API will be added in incremental manner (starting from 7.0) + and will slowly expose the + bits of already existing UI to external module writers. +

+ You modules can use the AutoUpdateUI API directly (of course
+ you almost certainly need also
+ Autoudate Services), just be aware that this module comes with a UI.
+ It is not always practical to depend on modules that provide a UI from
+ low level infrastructure modules - if that is your case, consider separating
+ calls to AutoUpdateUI into separate
+ bridge module.
