Description
Check Eigenvector.com for available PLS_Toolbox updates. EVRIUPDATE checks the Eigenvector Research web site for the most current PLS_Toolbox release version number. This is compared to the currently installed version. A message reporting the availability of an update is given as necessary. Input (product) will check for an individual product for umodes 0-2. The optional input (umode) can be any of the following:
- 'auto': perform an automatic check based on Auto Check settings
- 'settings': Gives GUI to modify the automatic check settings
- 'prompt': prompt user before performing check - includes prompt to allow user to modify settings.
or (umode) one of the following levels of automatic reports:
0 : give dialog stating if new version is available or not 1 : give dialog ONLY if a new version is available 2 : gives no dialog messages - only returns output flag (see below) 3 : give dialog of all products installed and version info. 4 : give dialog of all products from EVRI and versions. 5 : give dialog of all products but ONLY if a new version is available
The default mode is 4. The output (outofdate) will be 0 (zero) if the installed PLS_Toolbox is current, 1 (one) if the installed version is out of date and -1 if evriupdate could not retreive the most current version number.
