# updateVersion(atCreation:)

Updates the version of the plug-in that was stored when the plug-in was added to the clip.

```
func updateVersion(atCreation newVersion: UInt32) -> Bool
```

## Parameters

`newVersion`

The new version number.

## Return Value

If the update was successful, this method returns `YES`; otherwise, `NO`.

## Discussion

No information about previous backward compatibility is stored, and the plug-in is treated by the host app as if it were created with the specified version number. Updating fails if the specified number is lower than the already-saved version number.
