Linker errors for developing Maya plugin with Qt 4.6

[dythim]

Hello, I am trying to write a simple plugin for Maya 2011 using Qt 4.6
Right now it is failing at the linking stage, saying 12 or so references are not defined.

Here is the header file of the plugin:

#include <windows.h>
#include <maya/MPxCommand.h>
#include <maya/MGlobal.h>
 
class MArgList;
 
class myMelCmd : public MPxCommand
{
 
public:
                                myMelCmd();
        virtual		~myMelCmd();
 
        MStatus		doIt( const MArgList& );
        MStatus		redoIt();
        MStatus		undoIt();
        bool		isUndoable() const;
 
        static		void* creator();
};

#include <windows.h>
#include <maya/MPxCommand.h>
#include <maya/MGlobal.h>

class MArgList;

class myMelCmd : public MPxCommand
{

public:
                                myMelCmd();
        virtual		~myMelCmd();

        MStatus		doIt( const MArgList& );
        MStatus		redoIt();
        MStatus		undoIt();
        bool		isUndoable() const;

        static		void* creator();
};

I get errors of the following type from mingw32:

And here are those class definitions. Each of them is underlined in red and says "unexpected token '<classname>'"

#ifndef OPENMAYA_EXPORT
#define OPENMAYA_EXPORT _declspec( dllimport )
#endif // OPENMAYA_EXPORT
 
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MStatus
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MPxCommand
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MGlobal
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MString

#ifndef OPENMAYA_EXPORT

#endif // OPENMAYA_EXPORT

class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MStatus
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MPxCommand
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MGlobal
class OPENMAYA_EXPORT MString

Can anyone offer any help about what to do about this?
