LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS() is a C++ macro available in all 
Source and 
GoldSrc games.
It is used to link a classname to a C++ class.
Syntax
In the standard 
Source SDK and Half-Life SDK, the syntax is as such:
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS(editor_classname, CPPClassName)
This will usually look like so:
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS(info_null, CNullEntity)
ReGameDLL_CS
ReGameDLL_CS uses a modified syntax, adding an additional C++ class for server plugins:
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS(editor_classname, CPPClassName, APIClassName)
This will usually look like so:
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS(info_null, CNullEntity, CCSNullEntity)
