Updating a Custom Plugin

Hi guys
I need some help with updating my custom plugins,I coded them,so if Minecraft updates and Bukkit updates,how would I go about updating my custom plugins?
Thanks

 

you would first of all check which things work and what not then try to fix them or search google or forums.

 

You only need to worry about updating if you're making use of CraftBukkit or NMS Internal code (if you only link against bukkit.jar, then you're safe) using the bukkit api exclusively means your plugin doesn't require any updating unless the api itself changes, which is extremely rare. (there was one very minor change recently, but other than that, the last one was a over a year ago I think)

The actual process of updating the plugin is usually just updating the imports of the CB/NMS Code because they change package names with every new release.

 

Thanks ,You deserve a cake

Thanks ,you get some
