+ \title Architecture-specific Macro Definitions
+ \ingroup funclists
+
+ \brief The <QtProcessorDetection> header file includes various
+ architecture-specific macros.
+
+ The <QtProcessorDetection> header file declares a range of macros
+ (Q_PROCESSOR_*) that are defined if the application is compiled for
+ specified processor architectures. For example, the Q_PROCESSOR_X86 macro is
+ defined if the application is compiled for x86 processors.
+
+ The purpose of these macros is to enable programmers to add
+ architecture-specific code to their application.
