Add Simscape Multibody Link to your Windows registry as a SolidWorks plugin

Description

smlink_linksw adds Simscape™ Multibody™ Link to your Windows® registry as a SolidWorks® plugin. The registry entry makes the plugin discoverable in your SolidWorks installation. Use the plugin to export an assembly model in an XML format compatible with smimport, a Simscape Multibody function that converts XML multibody description files into equivalent Simscape Multibody models. You may need to select Simscape Multibody Link as an active plugin from within SolidWorks to begin using its features. If you have not yet installed the plugin, do so before running this command. For more information, see Install the Simscape™ Multibody™ Link Plug-In.

This function supports SolidWorks versions 2023 and earlier. For SolidWorks versions 2024 and later, use smlink_linksw24 instead.
