I am creating a new jdownloader plugin for the open source download manager. I made a plugin in eclipse. I tried to export the package as a jar file and placing it in the plugin directory, however jdownloader does not recognize the new plugin.
I noticed that all other jdownloader plugins from other authors are in jar archive files, including a manifest with Java classes and their corresponding SHA1-Digest values. Does this mean that I need a digital signature in the bank? If so, in what way.
How can you find out if a digital signature is needed to work with a specific application? I am not going to make it publicly available, since it would be useless to anyone but me.
