Hi

I'm currently updating an installation of Roundcube based on RC 0.5.4 (!) to use RC 0.7.2. One difference I have found is that the function rcube_plugin_api:get_plugin() no longer exists.

According to our local SVN history, this function was added when we merged with RC 0.4.2. However, I can't find this anywhere in the repository at trac.roundcube.net, so I'm beginning to wonder whether it was actually a custom method added by one of my colleagues (who must have forgotten to document it).

Please can you tell me whether this function (shown below) has ever existed in a previous release of Roundcube, and whether there is a better, supported way to retrieve an existing instance of a plugin (ie so plugins can talk to each other without creating duplicate instances)? If not, I'm happy to create a ticket and submit a patch.

Thanks

Marcus
