DataStage Plugin Custom GUI

Does anyone have any experience developing a custom GUI for a plugin? In either 7.5.x Server or Enterprise Edition?

I have something called the "Plugin GUIs SDK", which include MFC base classes that probably provide the basic tabs in a stage's configuration and define the COM interfaces between DS and the plugin.

I was wondering if IBM has released any new SDK for building plugin GUIs that anyone knows about ... for example, can I build a plugin GUI using .NET now?

I don't believe a new SDK has been issued.

Ask your support provider to obtain for you a copy of the Plug-In Writer's Guide - a manual that does not ordinarily ship with DataStage but which is (ought to be) available from IBM.
