RE: [pde-dev] Automatically update plugin

hi,

 I think its maybe better to stick with how other plug-ins work via the
pull-model (ie the user goes to the update manager to search for new
versions?)

otherwise, you could probably check in the startup() method of your
plugin class?

thanks,

Subject: [pde-dev] Automatically update plugin

Hi,

I have developed a plugin and an update site for it. I would like the
plugin to check at startup time if it is the latest version or not.
When there is a newer version, it should ask the user to update, else it
should't do anything. Does anyone know how to do this?

Regards,
Leen Toelen
