every instance has called unload(). Right before the unloading
happen, the root component will also be deleted.
- In order to speed up loading and validation of plugins, some of
- the information that is collected during loading is cached in
- persistent memory (through QSettings). For instance, the result
- of a load operation (e.g. succeeded or failed) is stored in the
- cache, so that subsequent load operations don't try to load an
- invalid plugin. However, if the "last modified" timestamp of
- a plugin has changed, the plugin's cache entry is invalidated
- and the plugin is reloaded regardless of the values in the cache
- entry. The cache entry is then updated with the new result of the
- load operation.
-
- This also means that the timestamp must be updated each time the
- plugin or any dependent resources (such as a shared library) is
- updated, since the dependent resources might influence the result
- of loading a plugin.

how to make your application extensible through plugins.
