The {\bf wxVariant} class represents a container for any type.
A variant's value can be changed at run time, possibly to a different type of value.

+As standard, wxVariant can store values of type bool, wxChar, double, long, string,
string list, time, date, void pointer, list of strings, and list of variants.
However, an application can extend wxVariant's capabilities by deriving from the
class \helpref{wxVariantData}{wxvariantdata} and using the wxVariantData form of
object, unlike the case for basic data types where convenience functions such as
\helpref{GetLong}{wxvariantgetlong} can be used.
-Pointers to any \helpref{wxObject}{helpref} derived class can also easily be stored
+Pointers to any \helpref{wxObject}{wxobject} derived class can also easily be stored
in a wxVariant. wxVariant will then use wxWidgets' built-in RTTI system to set the
type name (returned by \helpref{GetType}{wxvariantgettype}) and to perform
type-safety checks at runtime.
An optional name member is associated with a wxVariant. This might be used, for example,
in CORBA or OLE automation classes, where named parameters are required.

conveniance macros {\bf DECLARE\_VARIANT\_OBJECT} and {\bf IMPLEMENT\_VARIANT\_OBJECT}
were added so that adding (limited) support for conversion to and from wxVariant
