使用版本windows qt5.12.0+vs2015编译器。

运行plugandpaint工程的时候发现pnp_extrafiltersd.dll在load的时候失败了，经过调试，发现qlibrary.cpp中的findPatternUnloaded()的qt_find_pattern()无法通过。（release 版的pnp_extrafilters.dll是可以通过的，也不存在下面的问题）

//QtInstallDir\Qt5.12.0\5.12.0\Src\qtbase\src\corelib\plugin\qlibrary.cpp
.....
char pattern[] = "qTMETADATA ";pattern[0] = 'Q'; // Ensure the pattern "QTMETADATA" is not found in this library should QPluginLoader ever encounter it.const ulong plen = qstrlen(pattern);......pos = qt_find_pattern(filedata, fdlen, pattern, plen);  //找到二进制文件中的QTMETADATAif (pos > 0)hasMetaData = true;
.....if (pos >= 0 && hasMetaData) {const char *data = filedata + pos;QString errMsg;QJsonDocument doc = qJsonFromRawLibraryMetaData(data, fdlen, &errMsg);//直接将二进制文件中的QTMETADATA后面的内容转成json格式，此处在debug模式下会报错if (doc.isNull()) {qWarning("Found invalid metadata in lib %s: %s",qPrintable(library), qPrintable(errMsg));} else {lib->metaData = doc.object();if (qt_debug_component())qWarning("Found metadata in lib %s, metadata=\n%s\n",library.toLocal8Bit().constData(), doc.toJson().constData());ret = !doc.isNull();}}

qt moc生成的moc_*.cpp有一个metadata项，如下：

 正常来讲，metadata中的内容应该会存放到dll中，但pnp_extrafiltersd.dll出现异常。对比如下：

对比发现，pnp_extrafiltersd.dll的qt_pluginMetaData在遇到qPluginArchRequirements()的时候就被截断了，可以看到pnp_extrafiltersd.dll中qt_pluginMetaData的内容没有紧凑的存放在一起。qJsonFromRawLibraryMetaData函数在pnp_extrafiltersd.dll中找到“QTMETADATA !”之后无法将其后的二进制内容成功转换出正确的metadata的json内容。然而在release版中却没有这个现象，qt_pluginMetaData的内容在dll中全部紧凑的存放在一起，qJsonFromRawLibraryMetaData能正确对其进行解析。

解决方法：
1、先右键清除，将之前生成的obj等内容先清除掉，一定要做清除操作，否则残留的文件会对生成结果有影响。
2、在extrafilters.pro中加入：QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_DEBUG += -O1  （对VS 编译器debug模式设置O1优化，O1优化会在编译时将inline函数结果计算出来，否则程序会做一次函数调用，上面的现象就是因为编译器没有直接将qPluginArchRequirements()直接计算结果，而是做了一次函数调用操作，才导致字符数组qt_pluginMetaData的值没有在dll中紧凑排列，而导致后续的问题。debug默认不开启优化也就是O0，release默认开启最优优化，也就是O2优化）

下面是从qt中特意拷贝出识别qtplugin 的 dll的代码，有兴趣可以看一看，可以放到main中调试
