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