|
| +One to four dot-separated integers
|
| +identifying the version of this extension.
|
| +A couple of rules apply to the integers:
|
| +they must be between 0 and 65535, inclusive,
|
| +and non-zero integers can't start with 0.
|
| +For example, 99999 and 032 are both invalid.
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<p>
|
| +Here are some examples of valid versions:
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<ul>
|
| + <li> <code>"version": "1"</code> </li>
|
| + <li> <code>"version": "1.0"</code> </li>
|
| + <li> <code>"version": "2.10.2"</code> </li>
|
| + <li> <code>"version": "3.1.2.4567"</code> </li>
|
| +</ul>
|
| +
|
| +<p>
|
| +The autoupdate system compares versions
|
| +to determine whether an installed extension
|
| +needs to be updated.
|
| +If the published extension has a newer version string
|
| +than the installed extension,
|
| +then the extension is automatically updated.
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<p>
|
| +The comparison starts with the leftmost integers.
|
| +If those integers are equal,
|
| +the integers to the right are compared,
|
| +and so on.
|
| +For example, 1.2.0 is a newer version than 1.1.9.9999.
|
| +</p>
|
| +
|
| +<p>
|
| +A missing integer is equal to zero.
|
| +For example, 1.1.9.9999 is newer than 1.1.
