Checks for update when launch Java web start

Question

Application launch through Java web start(JWS) checks for update when we are launching it. Is there any way that we can prompt the users to download updates and if user say yes then it'll download the update otherwise execute old application without update?

Thanks in advance...

Use the update element with a policy attribute of "prompt-update". For example:

<update check="always" policy="prompt-update">
