How to Migrate a UI Plugin to STK 11

Migration of most UI plugins to a new install of STK requires recompilation and re-registration with STK and the windows registry before its use.

Plugins that are built with a compiler, such as C++ or .NET plugins, cannot be used with mulitple versions of STK at a time. They must be recompiled/registered for each version of STK in which they are to be used. The library references within the compilable plugin project must be updated to use the libraries from the STK installation from which they are to be used.

Plugin ProgIDs and GUIDs should also be updated to allow for side-by-side operations across different STK versions.

Refer to Visual Studio .NET documentation for further details on the Visual Studio .NET project and source code details which are beyond the scope of the migration documentation.
