I am interested in integrating WinSparkle into an application. The
two major components that seem to be missing in order for it to be
feature-matching with the Mac version of Sparkle is in-app downloads
of updates, and the ability to localize the UI. Has any work been
done towards either of these?
I am definitely willing to contribute to this project in order to see
these accomplished - I just don't want to be repeating work that has
already been done.
Thanks!
The downloads, yes, but it isn't integrated yet — I picked some useful bits from
https://github.com/vslavik/winsparkle/pull/3 and am working on adding the UI on top of that.
As for localization, the code is pretty much ready — all printable strings are inside _(), so it's "only" a matter of initializing wxWidgets' translations system and adjusting the build system accordingly.

Obviously. If you want it faster, patches are an effective way to accomplish that...

Good point.

And thanks for this great library, Václav! It's been very easy to
integrate it with my program built using C++Builder.

I've managed to successfully compile WinSparkle with Visual Studio 2010.
What are my next steps for "initializing wxWidgets' translations
system and adjusting the build system".
I'm not very familiar with wxWidgets, so I need a little guidance.
Thanks!
