I'm learning some Qt, and came across the following, when trying to implement a model.

class Model : public QAbstractItemModel
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    Model(int rows, int columns, QObject *parent = 0);
    ~Model();

I'm not too sure what the Q_OBJECT bit means and what its function is. Can anyone help?

Qt has extensive documentation, and it's pretty well indexed. Typing your question title in Google brings up the Qt signals & slots doc in the first positions, which will give you a more thorough overview than you can get with a Stack Overflow question. – Mat May 07 '13 at 11:09
And of course there is: [When should Q_OBJECT be used?](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3689714/when-should-q-object-be-used) – Bart May 07 '13 at 11:18
