App magasin - déterminer si mon application a une nouvelle version par programme - iphone - Stack Overflow

I would like to manually check if there are new updates for my app while the user is in it, and prompt him to download the new version. Can I do this by checking the version of my app in the app store - programatically?

Can I suggest this little library: https://github.com/nicklockwood/iVersion

Its purpose is to simplify the handling of remote plists to trigger notifications.

Thanks to Steve Moser for his link, here is my code:

NSString *appInfoUrl = @"http://itunes.apple.com/en/lookup?bundleId=XXXXXXXXX";

NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:appInfoUrl]];
[request setHTTPMethod:@"GET"];

NSURLResponse *response;
NSError *error;
NSData *data = [NSURLConnection  sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse: &response error: &error];
NSString *output = [NSString stringWithCString:[data bytes] length:[data length]];

NSError *e = nil;
NSData *jsonData = [output dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSDictionary *jsonDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers error: &e];

NSString *version = [[[jsonDict objectForKey:@"results"] objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"version"];
