android 正在检查更新,关于在app启动android上检查更新的新手问题

我正在尝试下面的代码.我想在应用程序启动时每天检查一次我的应用程序的更新版本.得到了

http://www.androidsnippets.com/check-for-updates-once-a-day的代码.

我无法弄清楚的是,在行URL updateURL = new URL(“http://my.company.com/update”);什么应该在

http://mycompany.com/update指向？一个xml,txt或..文件.我尝试了一个只有最新版本的xml和txt文件,并将其命名为version.txt,versionCode.txt和.xml.

它只是不起作用,应该只是“http://mycompany.com/update”或扩展名,即“http://mycompany.com/update/version.txt”或其他东西.

提前致谢.
