So he declares class CSigScanLib, where he declares the Load function.
Then in the .cpp file he provides the function definition of CSigScanLib::Load.
This is valid C++ code and will compile&link properly.
I don't see a reason to use the preprocessor macro there but it also doesn't do any harm.

But for the life of me I can't think of why someone would use a #define macro that is longer than the actual class name for a class name.
The only case I can see that being done is by an employee of a large corporation that is trying to get more typing done without actually accomplishing anything more.
