If you're using Qt, you may find its support for plugins useful.

That said, this is nowhere near what you get with the Eclipse RCP framework.

If your plug-ins are released on a different schedule than the host application, compatibility among versions is an issue. Maintaining binary compatibility between minor versions, as Qt itself has typically done, reduces the concern.

Testing supported version combinations in-house is desirable before they are tested by customers.

Not for C++, but a plugin architecture for C# http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms972962.aspx
