I see many usages in the Qt sources like:

Isn't the word immediately next to the keyword class supposed to be the
class name? Q_CORE_EXPORT etc are certainly not class names. What are
they and how are they allowed in between the word class and the class name?
I searched my "Thinking in C++" for this but did not turn up an answer.
Please help.
It's a macro that expands with different results depending on the
platform and/or context. For example when building Qt applications on
a Windows machine, it's redefined to Q_DECL_EXPORT which, in this
case, expands to __declspec(dllexport). See
/src/corelib/global/qglobal.h in the Qt source tree.
