I need some help on the architecture on mobile application.
what I want to do is the following....

after the first time installation, user will begin using our application, if
a bug is indentified and resolved, it is not necessary to do the
installation eveytime but only certain files need to be patched to them,
please guide me on how to achieve this.....

Should I build all file to DLL ? but import all DLL to mobile applcation, it
will make my program very slow.....any idea ?
thank you very much

How will you be updating your apps? Unless you will use a very expensive
connection, I'd just make a single EXE and update that if there isn't any
other reason to use separate DLLs.
 
U mentioned about the expensive connection here. Could you tell me what
expensive connection we need in order to achieve what i want ?

Basically, either update single exe file or the DLL are the solution for
user to get latest version for patches or bug fix. rite ?
 
I was thinking of a scenario where you might need to update the app via GPRS
and you need to do it often enough that the coummunication costs outweigh
the extra complexity. If you'll be updating the devices to new versions of
your apps while they're cradled using a local connection (which is what mine
do), the connection is basically "free".
 
Many developers just provide a updated application, and the entire
application is reinstalled. Keeping it simple is usually best.
