Re: [platform-update-dev] feature.xml

[Caio Filipini <caio_neo@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, let me explain the whole thing better.

I am creating and update site, where I'll publish the
features for all plugins we use in our company.
They're third party plugins (more especifically,
Checkstyle Plugin). I've changed the plugin's default
configuration to fit our needs, so noone would have to
configure all its rules after installation.

The problem is: when no other version of the plugin is
already installed, it works fine. But, when an older
version is installed, Update Manager updates the
plugin, but it keeps working with the old
configuration. :(

Is there a way to tell Update Manager that it should
use the new config file? Or to replace the old one?

Thanks for your help and attention.
