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.
-Note that as of wxWidgets 2.7.1, wxVariant is reference counted. Additionally, the
-conveniance macros {\bf DECLARE\_VARIANT\_OBJECT} and {\bf IMPLEMENT\_VARIANT\_OBJECT}
-were added so that adding (limited) support for conversion to and from wxVariant
-can be very easily implemented without modifiying either wxVariant or the class

-the class, the shift left operators are used like this:

ownership of wxVariantData, be aware that the object is created with reference count of 1,

needs to be called only if you both take ownership of wxVariantData and pass it to a wxVariant.
