It is very trivial but got few minutes wasted for not reading the play migration documentation...
I had my old project in 2.1 and wanted to updated to newer version 2.2.0.
So here I am after downloading latest version of Playframework. Subsequent to downloading, I updated the class path to latest version and changed the version in my plugins.sbt file. Dreaming it will work :(.
First Error
-------------
unresolved dependency: play#sbt-plugin;2.2.0: not found

Simple enough to understand that some plugin name has been changes. Previous plugin name was play but now it's com.typesafe.play. Hence the new line looks something like below.
// Use the Play sbt plugin for Play projects
addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.play" % "sbt-plugin" % "2.2.0")
After updating this I was confident that I will be able to work on my project now but NOPE... Same old exception. After a while realized that new version of Play comes with new SBT version. So had to update build.properties file to 0.13.0
Update line in build.properties file
-------------------------------------------
sbt.version=0.13.0
This time I was super confident that I will feel the taste of success but same error greeted me with smile. I had to come out of play prompt and did "play clean-all" and then started the play console again.
BOOM!! Could compile it with new version..
