Hi there,
I have a quick question about QLibrary. I'm connecting to a 3rd party
application software by using the 3rd party application's SDK. That SDK is
a single proprietary Windows dll and there is a different dll for each
version of the application. I would like to support the connection to
several versions of the application at runtime, hence I have all the dll
files in my bin folder:
bin/ApplicationConnect-4.0.dll
bin/ApplicationConnect-4.1.dll
bin/ApplicationConnect-4.2.dll
...
At runtime, depending on the user configuration, any of those versions are
loaded and symbols resolved using e.g. QLibrary
myDll("ApplicationConnect-4.0"). That all works perfectly fine. Now I would
like to add the feature to switch versions at runtime and here is my
question:
Is it fine to reuse the same QLibrary instance in the following sequence:
QLibrary myDll("ApplicationConnect-4.0");
myDll.load()
[... resolve and do stuff ...]
[... User configured different version...]
myDll.unload
myDll.setFileName("ApplicationConnect-4.1")
myDll.load()
[ ... resolve symbols and continue using it...]
or shall I destroy the previous QLibrary instance and create a new one?
I got some strange behavior while debugging the above lines in QtCreator
(error message saying that "Command aborted" after the first unload and gdb
aborts). So I'm not sure if I do something totally wrong.
Thanks,
Roland
