Thread: C++ Syntax

I am having trouble with some existing C++ that I have been asked to modify. Can someone please explain the following code to me please?

Code:

extern "C" void SpiPutword( Uint16 w )
{
    Lcd().ProcessDataWord( w );
}

I don't recall coming across funtion1().funtion2() before...

The above code was taken from a VS2005 C++ MFC project. Basically it's suppose to be a test harness (PC emulator) for a touchscreen wall controller (ie., air conditioner wall controller).

Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Lcd() returns an object that contains function ProcessDataWord().
