RBVersioner 1.1.0

RBVersioner is an utility to manage REALbasic "rbx" style plugins. The rbx format for plugins is a cross platform plugin format. There are many advantages to the rbx format, but version control is not one of them. In the design of the rbx format, REAL Software did not define a convention for representing the version numbers of plugins. With the old style plugins you could get the version number from the Finder. With the new rbx format,
this is not available.

Given that plugin vendors are now beginning to move exclusively to the rbx format, this creates a problem for managing plugins from different vendors. The problem is compounded by the fact that each vendor has a different method of handling version numbers ranging from doing nothing to implementing their own proprietary solution. If you deal with a lot of plugins and/or support team development, this situation becomes a mess to handle.

RBVersioner is designed to handle plugin version management independent of what any vendor chooses to do for version management. It also goes one step further and provides functionality to manage your set of plugins and their distribution throughout the organization.
