|
| +One integer specifying the version of the manifest file format your package
|
| +requires. As of Chrome 18, developers <em>should</em> specify <code>2</code>
|
| +(without quotes) to use the format as described by this document:
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<pre class="prettyprint"><span class="str">"manifest_version"</span><span class="pun">:</span><span class="pln"> </span><span class="lit">2</span></pre>
|

|
| +<p>
|
| +Consider manifest version 1 <em>deprecated</em> as of Chrome 18. Version 2 is
|
| +not yet <em>required</em>, but we will, at some point in the not-too-distant
|
| +future, stop supporting packages using deprecated manifest versions. Extensions,
|
| +applications, and themes that aren't ready to make the jump to the new manifest
|
| +version in Chrome 18 can either explicitly specify version <code>1</code>, or
|
| +leave the key off entirely.
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<p>
|
| +The changes between version 1 and version 2 of the manifest file format are
|
| +described in detail in <a href="http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/manifestVersion.html">the
|
| +<code>manifest_version</code> documentation.</a>
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<p class="caution">
|
| + Setting <code>manifest_version</code> 2 in Chrome 17 or lower is not
|
| + recommended. If your extension needs to work in older versions of Chrome,
|
| + stick with version 1 for the moment. We'll give you ample warning before
|
| + version 1 stops working.
