<h1>Python Objects and QVariant<a class="headerlink" href="#python-objects-and-qvariant" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>Qt uses the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code> class as a wrapper for any C++ data type. PyQt4
allows any Python object to be wrapped as a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code> and passed around Qt’s
meta-object system like any other type.</p>
<p>PyQt4 will try to convert the Python object to a C++ equivalent if it can so
that the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code> can be passed to other C++ code that doesn’t know what a
Python object is.</p>
<p>Version 2 of PyQt4’s <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code> API will automatically convert a <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code>
back to a Python object of the correct type.</p>
<p>Version 1 of the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code> API provides the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant.toPyObject()</span></code> method
to convert the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">QVariant</span></code> back to a Python object of the correct type.</p>
<p>Both versions will raise a Python exception if the conversion cannot be done.</p>
