Plugin dependencies?

muhahaa

How can I check reliably what plugins my program depends on?

It seems that even the aboutQt dialog requires several plugins:

bq.
ModLoad: 01f90000 01f9b000 C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.7.4\msvc2008\plugins\imageformats\qico4.dll
ModLoad: 02030000 02063000 C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.7.4\msvc2008\plugins\imageformats\qjpeg4.dll
ModLoad: 02b40000 02b7a000 C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.7.4\msvc2008\plugins\imageformats\qmng4.dll

There's no reliable way to tell.
Plugins are only loaded when needed, and, in case of the image formats, it can be that all image format plugins available in a certain directory are loaded in order to get a list of the supported formats.

With a Qt plugin for PostgreSql I had a issue with dependencies. I used a Dependency Walker to check what I should deploy with app.

Does Dependency Walker detect LoadLibrary dependencies?

No. It cannot know which plugins will be loaded.

This program will show you modules loaded at runtime for any running Windows program:
