From a63ca3fa106f4b0f9776bf2004661ef6dec2c0c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thiago Macieira Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2016 14:09:32 -0700 Subject: Implement QLibrary::PreventUnloadHint for Windows It's interesting that the HMODULE/HINSTANCE pointer points to something in the actual module that got loaded, so we can use its value as "address of something in the module" for GetModuleHandleEx. The "PIN" flag tells the Windows DLL loader to never unload.
