+ \class Q3ValueStack
+ \brief The Q3ValueStack class is a value-based template class that provides a stack.
+ \compat
+
+ Define a template instance Q3ValueStack\<X\> to create a stack of
+ values that all have the class X.
+
+ Note that Q3ValueStack does not store pointers to the members of
+ the stack; it holds a copy of every member. That is why these
+ kinds of classes are called "value based"; Q3PtrStack, Q3PtrList,
+ Q3Dict, etc., are "pointer based".
+
+ A stack is a last in, first out (LIFO) structure. Items are added
+ to the top of the stack with push() and retrieved from the top
+ with pop(). The top() function provides access to the topmost item
+ without removing it.
+
+ Example:
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_q3valuestack.qdoc 0
+
+ Q3ValueStack is a specialized Q3ValueList provided for convenience.
+ All of Q3ValueList's functionality also applies to Q3PtrStack, for
+ example the facility to iterate over all elements using
+ Q3ValueStack<T>::Iterator. See Q3ValueListIterator for further
+ details.
+
+ Some classes cannot be used within a Q3ValueStack, for example
+ everything derived from QObject and thus all classes that
+ implement widgets. Only values can be used in a Q3ValueStack. To
+ qualify as a value, the class must provide
+ \list
+ \i a copy constructor;
+ \i an assignment operator;
+ \i a default constructor, i.e. a constructor that does not take any arguments.
+ \endlist
+
+ Note that C++ defaults to field-by-field assignment operators and
+ copy constructors if no explicit version is supplied. In many
+ cases this is sufficient.

+ \fn Q3ValueStack::~Q3ValueStack()

+ Destroys the stack. References to the values in the stack and all
+ iterators of this stack become invalidated. Because Q3ValueStack is
+ highly tuned for performance, you won't see warnings if you use
+ invalid iterators because it is impossible for an iterator to
+ check whether or not it is valid.
