In the case of Qt, I don't see much else relevantly different between static libraries and static plugins. So the answer is, 'probably nothing'. The other thing Qt does with static plugins is generate a file with Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN calls. That part relates to the INTERFACE_SOURCES concept: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.programming.tools.cmake.devel/7082 I could imagine it being useful for any project which can build shared or static and has a plugin interface with a similar need for a PP define though.
