Add ISymbianManagerLoadedHook - currently used to notify com.nokia.qt plugins that need to ensure that Qt SDKs have been scanned and added to the Qt preferences and that ICarbideBuildConfiguration listeners are added so the proper Qt-SDK can be set with build config changes. Scanned Qt SDKs are wrapped in a Job and added SDKs are reported to the Error log as Info.
Ignore whitespace changes - Everywhere: Within whitespace: At end of lines:
