    I have a application that using many plugins with a custom interface. They work great however sometime when I close the GUI using the X, I get the following error:

    <executable name >symbol lookup error: <the plugin path>/libDisplayTest.so: undefined symbol: _ZN19TestPluginInterfaceD2Ev
    <executeable name> exited with code 127

    TestPluginInterface is my plugin interface.

    It seems like my plugins are not being unloaded automatically on the exit of the program?

    Here is a snippit of how I load a plugin (error checking removed).

    TestPluginInterface* TestManager::loadPlugin(QString pluginName)
    {
        QPluginLoader pluginLoader(pluginPath,this);
        pluginObject = pluginLoader.instance();
        testPlugin = qobject_cast<TestPluginInterface*>(pluginObject);
        return(testPlugin);
    }
    

    Any ideas? I do not explicitly delete the plugin pointer anywhere.

      I figure this out.
      I had to change the destructor od my interface from

      virtual ~TestPluginInterface() = 0;
      

      to:

      virtual ~TestPluginInterface() = default;
