[Qt-interest] QT plugins, dynamic and static version

[Parker]

Hello all, 
I have an application with tabs, and I want these tabs to be generated dynamically, i.e. when you click a button, there will be new tab appearing, some other is changing, etc. 
So, I need to define each tab as separate class and load it dynamically. But what to use ? 
 I want when the application is installed, if there is the need of adding additional functionalities, just to place one file in the program's folder and then the new functionality (tab for instance) to be loaded. Or something like that. 
I think I'll be able to do it with dynamic libraries, or QT plugins maybe ? I'm not sure what's the difference, maybe it can be done with the lower-level api of qt plugins OR with dynamic lybraries. 

Also, it is said that there are two versions of QT, dynamic and static ? What do this means, where I can read about it ? 

I'm using WIndows XP. 

Regards, 
Patric
