How do I upgrade Phonegap in my Phonegap app?

Question

I have a Phonegap app that I started with an earlier version of Phonegap, that I want to upgrade to the latest version. What steps do I take to upgrade it?

I'm shooting for a general answer, but my specific case is Phonegap 1.1.0 -> 1.2.0

Answer 1

I found this tonight and it seems more straightforward. See http://phonegap.com/blog/2013/11/28/phonegap-320-released/

How to Upgrade an App

$ cd path/to/my-app
$ phonegap platform update android

You can substitute android for any platform name.

Answer 2

Depends on the platform. For Android you just need to replace your .jar/.js files with the 1.2 versions and update the script tag to refer to the phonegap-1.2.0.js file.
