Plugin updater for Miranda NG.

Tips and Tricks

  1. There are no any checking of dates and version of the plugins. So if you have compiled yourself or got anywhere newer version of the plugin PluginUpdater does download it from the server, even if it is "older". This behaviour was made consciously to exclude user`s problems with unknown sourced plugins.
  2. Plugin hashes are computed by special algorithm to exclude compilation time of the dll, which is included into the dll. So if a plugin is compiled with one compiller from the same sources in differ time it has the same hash for PluginUpdater but different hashes for standard MD5 utils.
  3. The plugin is tuned in to checking Stable Version of Miranda. So it is possible when the plugin rolls away fresh Unstable version of Miranda. This is not a mistake and can be tuned into the preferences.
  4. For packs-makers: It is possible to set your own URL to check updates. You became responsible for opportune updating of the plugins store.
  5. If you set key PluginUpdater/RestartCurrentProfile = 0 the plugin will restart Miranda to Profile manager (revision 3346). The plugin restarts Miranda to current profile by default.
