If you download qt-creator source. Please check the qbs file there. But for your reference this is how cppeditor plugin qbs looks like

import qbs 1.0
import qbs.FileInfo

QtcPlugin {
name: "CppEditor"

Depends { name: "Qt.widgets" }
Depends { name: "CPlusPlus" }
Depends { name: "Utils" }

Depends { name: "Core" }
Depends { name: "CppTools" }
Depends { name: "TextEditor" }
Depends { name: "ProjectExplorer" }

Depends { name: "app_version_header" }

hi @Maaz-Momin
thank for your help. but i cannot load

pluginTestDepends: [
"QmakeProjectManager",
]

what is in the pluginTestDepends?

Pham Hoang

i found it. it is simple more than what it think from start. @_@!

Project {

CppApplication {
    name: "mainCoding"

    Depends { name: "PLUGIN1" }
    Depends { name: "Qt.widgets" }

    files: [
        "main.cpp",
        "echointerface.h",
        "echowindow.h",
        "echowindow.cpp"
    ]

    Group {     // Properties for the produced executable
        fileTagsFilter: "application"
        qbs.install: true
        qbs.installDir: "bin"
    }
}

DynamicLibrary {
    name: "PLUGIN1"
    type: "dynamiclibrary"

    Depends { name: "cpp" }
    Depends { name: "Qt.widgets" }
    Depends { name: "Qt.bluetooth" }

    files: [
        "plugin/echoplugin.h",
        "plugin/echoplugin.cpp"
    ]

    Group {
        name: "PLUGIN1"
        fileTagsFilter: type
        qbs.install: true
        qbs.installDir: "bin"
    }
}

}
