[Request] Manual update when user click some button

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Auto update is working just fine, but sometime I want to let user check for 
update themselves.

Is that proper way(example) to do that?

There's a member function called checkUpdatesManually() you may use for this 
purpose when the user clicks the button.

Still, manual updates are actually discouraged, because mature application 
usually have a release cycle in weeks, maybe months and adding UI element, that 
works only once in a few months (weeks) seems quite pointless and may lead to 
user frustration ("I'm clicking the damn button and nothing happens", etc).
