I'm working on a plugin XYZ using Eclipse 3.1. I created one project where I
develop the plug-in. I also created a project for the feature for the
plug-in. I also created an update site project to distribute my project.
Now let's say I have written XYZ 1.0.0. When I build the update site,
everything works fine.
Now, I've made some changes to my plugin, and want to publish the updated
version. So I changed the version number in my plug-in project to 1.0.1 and
did the same for the feature project (also changed to 1.0.1).
I want to add this updated feature to my update site. However, when I go to
the site.xml editor and click Add Feature, I don't see my new feature
available to be added. I thought I could go around that problem by manually
editing the XML file (I basically copied the defintion of the 1.0.0 feature
and changed the version number appropriately). This however doesn't work:
the feature icon is grayed out and the Build button is also grayed out.
Am I doing something wrong here? Why isn't Eclipse detecting the new feature
version? What is the best workflow with developing a plug-in and releasing
updated versions so that all this works smoothly, as I imagine it should.
Thanks

Did you create a new feature 1.0.1 as well? It looks like you only have the 1.0.0 feature, and the 1.0.0 and 1.0.1 plugins.
You'll need to bump the version of the feature too, and have it link to the newer version of the plugin.
