## Public Functions

| QVariantPointer(const Pointer *pointer)
QVariantRef<Pointer> | operator*() const
Pointer | operator->() const

## Detailed Description

QVariantConstPointer wraps a pointer and returns QVariantRef to it from its operator*(). This makes it suitable as replacement for an actual pointer. We cannot return an actual pointer from generic iterators as the iterators don't hold an actual QVariant.

## Member Function Documentation

### `[explicit]` QVariantPointer::QVariantPointer(const Pointer *pointer)

Constructs a QVariantPointer from the given pointer.

### QVariantRef<Pointer> QVariantPointer::operator*() const

Dereferences the QVariantPointer to a QVariantRef.

### Pointer QVariantPointer::operator->() const

Dereferences and returns the pointer. The pointer is expected to also implement operator->().
