## Detailed Description

### template<class... Types>
class Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >

Specialization of Variant containing a tuple.

Since glibmm 2.54:

## Member Typedef Documentation

## CppContainerType

template <class... Types>

using Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::CppContainerType = std::tuple<Types...>

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## Variant() [1/2]

template <class... Types>

Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::Variant | ( |  | ) |

inline

Default constructor.

## Variant() [2/2]

template <class... Types>

Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::Variant | ( | GVariant< std::tuple< Types... > > * | castitem,
|  | bool | take_a_reference = `false`
| ) |  |

inline 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

## create()

template <class... Types>

Variant< std::tuple< Types... > > Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::create | ( | const std::tuple< Types... > & | data | ) |

static

Creates a new Variant containing a tuple.

Parameters

  data | The tuple to use for creation.

Returns
  The new Variant holding a tuple.

Since glibmm 2.54:

## get()

template <class... Types>

std::tuple< Types... > Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::get | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the tuple of the Variant.

Returns
  The tuple.

Since glibmm 2.54:

## get_child()

template <class... Types>
template <class T >

T Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::get_child | ( | gsize | index | ) | const

Gets a specific element from the tuple.

It is an error if index is greater than or equal to the number of elements in the tuple. See VariantContainerBase::get_n_children().

Parameters

  index | The index of the element.

Returns
  The tuple element at index index.

Exceptions

  std::out_of_range |

Since glibmm 2.54:

## get_child_variant()

template <class... Types>

## get_iter()

template <class... Types>

VariantIter Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::get_iter | ( |  | ) | const

Gets a VariantIter of the Variant.

Returns
  The VariantIter.

Since glibmm 2.54:

## variant_type()

template <class... Types>

const VariantType& Glib::Variant< std::tuple< Types... > >::variant_type | ( |  | ) |

static

Gets the VariantType.

Returns
  The VariantType.
