Ok. If I don't ask I don't get :). > add_library(mystatic_library STATIC foo.cpp) > set_property(TARGET mystatic_library PROPERTY QT_STATICPLUGIN 1) > target_link_libraries(mystatic_library Qt5::Core) Yes, but I don't think that's better than add_library(mystatic_library STATIC foo.cpp) target_compile_definitions(mystatic_library PRIVATE QT_STATICPLUGIN) target_link_libraries(mystatic_library Qt5::Core) I guess that's what I should recommend.
