QVariantRef(const Pointer *pointer)
QVariant operator QVariant() const

QVariantRef<Pointer> &operator=(const QVariant &value)
QVariantRef<Pointer> &operator=(const QVariantRef<Pointer> &value)

Detailed Description

As the generic iterators don't actually instantiate a QVariant on each step, they cannot return a reference to one from operator*(). QVariantRef provides the same functionality as an actual reference to a QVariant would, but is backed by a pointer given as template parameter. The template is implemented for pointers of type QSequentialIterator and QAssociativeIterator.

[explicit] QVariantRef::QVariantRef(const Pointer *pointer)

Creates a QVariantRef from an pointer.

QVariant QVariantRef::operator QVariant() const

Resolves the QVariantRef to an actual QVariant.

QVariantRef<Pointer> &QVariantRef::operator=(QVariantRef<Pointer> &&value)

Assigns a new value to the value pointed to by the pointer this QVariantRef refers to.

QVariantRef<Pointer> &QVariantRef::operator=(const QVariant &value)

Assigns a new value to the value pointed to by the pointer this QVariantRef refers to.

QVariantRef<Pointer> &QVariantRef::operator=(const QVariantRef<Pointer> &value)

Assigns a new value to the value pointed to by the pointer this QVariantRef refers to.
