If I understood correctly, as like other Qt plugins(QPA,imageformats,..) qtwebkitplatformplugin is not binary compatible between Qt deliveries. Suppose if I have a qtwebkitplatformplugin plugin which is compiled against 1.0, the same plugin can't be used as is for 2.0. Am I right? That is the case, I agree with u :), but qwebkitplatformplugin.h shouldn't be a part of Qt delivery.

Running _moc_ again is not a problem :)



One more query, what about passing the parent to QtWebKitPlatformPlugin::createExtension? because the plugin may need the QObject who asks to create extensions.
