Problem with updating the plugin created by me [message #667322]

I have a Plug-in named myPlugin-1.1.0 (1.1.0 is the version number).
I installed that plugin in my eclipse through update manager.

Now, I modified few things and now I have a plugin named myPlugin-1.1.1. When I try to install the plugin through update manager in the same eclipse Helios it shows the message that plugin is already available so it will just update the plugin(what actually I want), but after doing the process nothing get changed not even the plugin version.

So what is the actual feasible way to create such type of update plugin.

When you installed plugin-1.1.0 what feature did you use. When you
created plugin-1.1.1 did you update the feature as well? Is it a top
level feature, or a feature included by a product definition?

for plugin myPlugin-1.1.0, I made a Feature project named myFeature and added this plugin myplugin-1.1.0.
Again on next update, I deleted the 1.1.0 and added my entry of 1.1.1 and then created a new update site.

Even the scenario is not getting updated

I assume that's "I deleted the 1.1.0 feature and added the 1.1.1
feature", right?

could you run the director listing on your 1.1.0 update site, and then
on the 1.1.1 update site, and post those results?

ex:
eclipse/eclipse -noSplash -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.director
-repository file:///path/to/your/update/site -list
