 VariantBase ()
 VariantBase (GVariant* castitem, bool make_a_copy=false)
 VariantBase (const VariantBase& src)
VariantBaseoperator= (const VariantBase& src)
 ~VariantBase ()
GVariant* gobj ()
const GVariant* gobj () const
GVariant* gobj_copy () const
 Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for freeing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

void init (const GVariant* cobject, bool take_a_reference=false)
 Replace the underlying GVariant.

VariantType get_type () const
 Determines the type of value.

std::string get_type_string () const
 Returns the type string of value.

bool is_floating () const
 Checks whether value has a floating reference count.

bool is_of_type (const VariantType&type) const
 Checks if a value has a type matching the provided type.

bool is_container () const
 Checks if value is a container.

GVariantClass classify () const
 Classifies value according to its top-level type.

gsize get_size () const
 Determines the number of bytes that would be required to store value with g_variant_store().

gconstpointer get_data ()
 Returns a pointer to the serialised form of a Variant instance.

void store (gpointer data) const
 Stores the serialised form of value at data.

Glib::ustring print (bool type_annotate=false) const
 Pretty-prints value in the format understood by g_variant_parse().

guint hash () const
 Generates a hash value for a Variant instance.

bool equal (const VariantBase& other) const
 Checks if one and two have the same type and value.

void get_normal_form (VariantBase& result) const
 Gets a VariantBase instance that has the same value as this variant and is trusted to be in normal form.

bool is_normal_form () const
 Checks if value is in normal form.

void byteswap (VariantBase& result) const
 Performs a byteswapping operation on the contents of this variant.

- Static Public Member Functions inherited from Glib::VariantBase
