+\section{\class{wxVariant}}\label{wxvariant}
+
+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, char, 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 the wxVariant constructor or assignment operator
+to assign this data to a variant. Actual values for user-defined types will need to be accessed
+via the wxVariantData object, unlike the case for basic data types where convenience
+functions such as GetLong can be used.
+
+This class is useful for reducing the programming for certain tasks, such as an editor
+for different data types, or a remote procedure call protocol.
+
+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.
+
+wxVariant is similar to wxExpr and also to wxPropertyValue. However, wxExpr is efficiency-optimized for
+a restricted range of data types, whereas wxVariant is less efficient but more extensible.
+wxPropertyValue may be replaced by wxVariant eventually.
