Ah, now I see. This is where the missmatch is. QPA is by definition private apis that might change. It will stay like that for Qt 5. Maybe for Qt 6 we'r so confident that we might lock it down. Normally I define it like so: There is absolutely no abi, what so ever. You cant expect to take a plugin built with one sha, to be built with another sha... So 5.0 plugins will not work with 5.0.1 plugins. There is also no API guarantee. That means we won't break api just because we like to, but it also means it CAN change.
