Now The Testing Can Really Get Started

14 Jun 2003

I finally did it. The core functions of the Plugin Manager have now been implemented. It can now:

  • Download a list of available plugins and versions from the MT Plugin Directory
  • Determine if you can install/use a particular plugin
  • Install a plugin (including downloading, unpacking, and placing files appropriately)
  • Determine if there is a new version of an installed plugin available
  • Upgrade a currently installed plugin to a newer version
  • Uninstall a currently installed plugin

Now things start getting interesting. :)
