    \class TQVariant tqvariant.h
    \brief The TQVariant class acts like a union for the most common TQt data types.

    \ingroup objectmodel
    \ingroup misc
    \mainclass

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

    A TQVariant 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 one of the asT() functions, e.g. asSize(),
    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
    canCast().

    The methods named toT() (for any supported T, see the \c Type
    documentation for a list) 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).

    Note that three data types supported by TQVariant are explicitly
    shared, namely TQImage, TQPointArray, and TQCString, and in these
    cases the toT() methods return a shallow copy. In almost all cases
    you must make a deep copy of the returned values before modifying
    them.

    The asT() functions are not const. They do conversion like the
    toT() methods, set the variant to hold the converted value, and
    return a reference to the new contents of the variant.

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

    \code
    TQDataStream out(...);
    TQVariant v(123);          // The variant now contains an int
    int x = v.toInt();        // x = 123
    out << v;                 // Writes a type tag and an int to out
    v = TQVariant("hello");    // The variant now contains a TQCString
    v = TQVariant(tr("hello"));// The variant now contains a TQString
    int y = v.toInt();        // y = 0 since v cannot be converted to an int
    TQString s = v.toString(); // s = tr("hello")  (see TQObject::tr())
    out << v;                 // Writes a type tag and a TQString to out
    ...
    TQDataStream in(...);      // (opening the previously written stream)
    in >> v;                  // Reads an Int variant
    int z = v.toInt();        // z = 123
    qDebug("Type is %s",      // prints "Type is int"
	    v.typeName());
    v.asInt() += 100;	      // The variant now hold the value 223.
    v = TQVariant( TQStringList() );
    v.asStringList().append( "Hello" );
    \endcode

    You can even store TQValueList<TQVariant>s and
    TQMap<TQString,TQVariant>s 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.

    TQVariant also supports the notion of NULL values, where you have a
    defined type with no value set.
    \code
    TQVariant x, y( TQString() ), z( TQString("") );
    x.asInt();
    // x.isNull() == TRUE, y.isNull() == TRUE, z.isNull() == FALSE
    \endcode
