Hello,
I am about to create an application. I would like to keep it in modular architecture and to work on Linux, Mac and Windows. I want to use Qt library in general.
The most of the functionality of this application will be stored in plugins, which for some reasons is the best approach here. I am used to create plugins on C++. However I am considering to use Qt plugin management system.
My questions are:
-
Can this system be used to manage any kind of plugins? What I mean is that most (all I've run into) examples cover plugins regarding Qt styles and Qt elements, etc. No general plugin managemet like "Foo" plugin doing "hello world".
-
Are there any advantages of "manually created" pure C++ plugin system over Qt plugin system? Should I rather consider using pure C++ approach?
Regards
Misery
