android是一个不断迭代升级的系统，基于android的各家手机厂商也都在升级。对于应用程序，有些场景可能需要知道系统是否刚刚升级过了。如果升级了，需要执行一些业务逻辑，例如，系统升级之后，已安装应用信息可能会有变化，相关的数据更新业务逻辑需要被执行。应用程序如何判断近期系统有没有升级过？android并没有能够实现类似功能的官方api。这里使用应用维护系统版本号并比对的方式来实现这个需求。
先看一下android系统升级的时候，对于应用数据是怎么处理的？这里以系统应用为例说明。
从android处理升级的源代码bootable/recovery/recovery.cpp可以看到有擦除数据的逻辑（should_wipe_data相关部分），所以升级之后，应用数据是有可能失去的。

// Take last pmsg contents and rewrite it to the current pmsg session.

// Do we need to rotate?

LOG_ID_SYSTEM, ANDROID_LOG_INFO, filter,
logbasename, &doRotate);
// Take action to refresh pmsg contents
__android_log_pmsg_file_read(
LOG_ID_SYSTEM, ANDROID_LOG_INFO, filter,
logrotate, &doRotate);
// If this binary is started with the single argument "--adbd",
// instead of being the normal recovery binary, it turns into kind
// of a stripped-down version of adbd that only supports the
// 'sideload' command. Note this must be a real argument, not
// anything in the command file or bootloader control block; the
// only way recovery should be run with this argument is when it
// starts a copy of itself from the apply_from_adb() function.

系统应用可以这样来判断：
假设我们在SharedPreferences中存一个String value：last_update_sys_version，用以记录上一次执行相关业务逻辑时，系统当时的版本名。这个版本名可以是Android的版本，也可以是自家ROM的版本。
每次应用启动的时候，从SharedPreferences中读取last_update_sys_version，与调用Android或者自家ROM提供的获取版本名的api得到的值字符串比对，如果相同，不做任何事；如果不同，执行一次相关业务逻辑，并把当前调用api获取的版本名update到SharedPreferences中。
这个方案不论系统升级有没有擦除数据（SharedPreferences），都是有效的：
如果擦除了，SharedPreferences无此字段，得到null，与当前调用Android或者自家ROM的api得到的版本名字符串比对，结果不相同，会触发执行相关业务逻辑，并且记录这个版本名字段。
如果没有擦除，SharedPreferences中记录的是系统升级之前的版本名，与当前调用Android或者自家ROM的api得到的版本名字符串比对，结果不相同，会触发执行相关业务逻辑，并且记录这个版本名字段。
