31/*
32 * wxVariantData stores the actual data in a wxVariant object,
33 * to allow it to store any type of data.
34 * Derive from this to provide custom data handling.
35 *
2562c823
RR
36 * NB: To prevent addition of extra vtbl pointer to wxVariantData,
37 * we don't multiple-inherit from wxObjectRefData. Instead,
38 * we simply replicate the wxObject ref-counting scheme.
39 *
40 * NB: When you construct a wxVariantData, it will have refcount
41 * of one. Refcount will not be further increased when
42 * it is passed to wxVariant. This simulates old common
43 * scenario where wxVariant took ownership of wxVariantData
44 * passed to it.
45 * If you create wxVariantData for other reasons than passing
46 * it to wxVariant, technically you are not required to call
47 * DecRef() before deleting it.
48 *
8cb50e4b
JS
49 * TODO: in order to replace wxPropertyValue, we would need
50 * to consider adding constructors that take pointers to C++ variables,
51 * or removing that functionality from the wxProperty library.
52 * Essentially wxPropertyValue takes on some of the wxValidator functionality
53 * by storing pointers and not just actual values, allowing update of C++ data
54 * to be handled automatically. Perhaps there's another way of doing this without
55 * overloading wxVariant with unnecessary functionality.
