I think you might have to design your application something like below:
For instance all the Prmt.dlls should implement a common interface for
instance: PrmtInterface and place it under PrmtInterface.h
And your Core.dll only know about PrmtInterface.h, it should not link to
any of the Prmt.dll. And then you go on implementing Prmt.dlls and place it
to different folders. And at run time you should use QPluginLoader to
load/unload appropriate plugin.
Hope this help!
