    \class QVariant
    \brief The QVariant class acts like a union for the most common Qt data types.

    \ingroup objectmodel
    \ingroup shared


    Because C++ forbids unions from including types that have
    non-default constructors or destructors, most interesting Qt
    classes cannot be used in unions. Without QVariant, this would be
    a problem for QObject::property() and for database work, etc.

    A QVariant object holds a single value of a single type() at a
    time. (Some type()s are multi-valued, for example a string list.)
    You can find out what type, T, the variant holds, convert it to a
    different type using convert(), get its value using one of the
    toT() functions (e.g., toSize()) and check whether the type can
    be converted to a particular type using canConvert().

    The methods named toT() (e.g., toInt(), toString()) are const. If
    you ask for the stored type, they return a copy of the stored
    object. If you ask for a type that can be generated from the
    stored type, toT() copies and converts and leaves the object
    itself unchanged. If you ask for a type that cannot be generated
    from the stored type, the result depends on the type; see the
    function documentation for details.

    Here is some example code to demonstrate the use of QVariant:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_kernel_qvariant.cpp 0

    You can even store QList<QVariant> and QMap<QString, QVariant>
    values in a variant, so you can easily construct arbitrarily
    complex data structures of arbitrary types. This is very powerful
    and versatile, but may prove less memory and speed efficient than
    storing specific types in standard data structures.

    QVariant also supports the notion of null values, where you can
    have a defined type with no value set. However, note that QVariant
    types can only be cast when they have had a value set.

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_kernel_qvariant.cpp 1

    QVariant can be extended to support other types than those
    mentioned in the \l Type enum. See the \l QMetaType documentation
    for details.

    \section1 A Note on GUI Types

    Because QVariant is part of the QtCore library, it cannot provide
    conversion functions to data types defined in QtGui, such as
    QColor, QImage, and QPixmap. In other words, there is no \c
    toColor() function. Instead, you can use the QVariant::value() or
    the qvariant_cast() template function. For example:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_kernel_qvariant.cpp 2

    The inverse conversion (e.g., from QColor to QVariant) is
    automatic for all data types supported by QVariant, including
    GUI-related types:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_kernel_qvariant.cpp 3

    \section1 Using canConvert() and convert() Consecutively

    When using canConvert() and convert() consecutively, it is possible for
    canConvert() to return true, but convert() to return false. This
    is typically because canConvert() only reports the general ability of
    QVariant to convert between types given suitable data; it is still
    possible to supply data which cannot actually be converted.

    For example, canConvert() would return true when called on a variant
    containing a string because, in principle, QVariant is able to convert
    strings of numbers to integers.
    However, if the string contains non-numeric characters, it cannot be
    converted to an integer, and any attempt to convert it will fail.
    Hence, it is important to have both functions return true for a
    successful conversion.
