Description David Kilzer (:ddkilzer) 2011-03-16 08:12:16 PDT 
The WebKit2/config.h header has the following OBJC_CLASS macro defined:

#ifdef __OBJC__
#define OBJC_CLASS @class
#else
#define OBJC_CLASS class
#endif

This makes it possible to declare classes once for both Obj-C[++] and C++ source.  It would remove over 20 lines of declarations in Source/WebCore/platform/mac/WebCoreSystemInterface.h and other headers where both types must be declared.

Maybe we could even put it in wtf/Platform.h ?

I found that I had to add OBJC_CLASS to WebKitPrefix.h because of its use in all of the WebCore headers, so I think that moving it to Platform.h would cut down on the duplication between projects.
