This is intended to be an universal installer for all SDL plugins. When this installed on the machine it will be installed as a default application for *.sdlplugin file type, meaning that everytime such a file is double clicked the installer will launch and guide through a series of steps that help you install the plugin you want. The installer has the following features:
- Default application for *.sdlplugin file type.
- Determine all installed versions of SDL Studio.
- Allows installation only for plugin compatible SDL Studio versions.
- Installs plugins for multiple installed versions of SDL Studio - based on user selection.
- Remove previous installed versions of the plugin during installation.
OpenExchange was updated to allow publishing plugins without wrapping them up in a zip file. This eliminates the need of creating a dedicated installer for your plugin as long as the user have this universal installer on their machine. The universal installer is intended to be distributed together with SDL Trados Studio 2015 and later.
