## Detailed Description

### template<>
class Glib::Variant< std::string >

Specialization of Variant containing a std::string, for variants of type bytestring, object path, or signature.

See also Variant<Glib::ustring> for UTF-8 strings.

## Member Typedef Documentation

typedef std::string Glib::Variant< std::string >::CppType

Reimplemented from Glib::VariantStringBase.

typedef char* Glib::Variant< std::string >::CType

Reimplemented from Glib::VariantStringBase.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Glib::Variant< std::string >::Variant | ( |  | ) |

Default constructor.

Glib::Variant< std::string >::Variant | ( | GVariant< std::string > * | castitem,
|  | bool | take_a_reference = `false`
| ) |  | `[explicit]`

GVariant constructor.

Parameters:

  castitem | The GVariant to wrap.
  take_a_reference | Whether to take an extra reference of the GVariant or not (not taking one could destroy the GVariant with the wrapper).

## Member Function Documentation

static Variant<std::string> Glib::Variant< std::string >::create | ( | const std::string & | data | ) | `[static]`

Creates a new Variant<std::string>.

Parameters:

  data | The value of the new Variant.

Returns:
  The new Variant.

Since glibmm 2.28:

std::string Glib::Variant< std::string >::get | ( |  | ) | const

static const VariantType& Glib::Variant< std::string >::variant_type | ( |  | ) | `[static]`

Gets the VariantType.

Returns:
  The VariantType.
