As reported by joel__ (Joel B. Mohler) on the IRC:


# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from PySide import QtCore

def variant(*t):
    return QtCore.QVariant([QtCore.QVariant(i) for i in t])

qvar = variant((1,2,3))
print qvar.toList()
# qvar.toList used to return a list [1,2,3]  (I think!!!)



Furthermore, QVariant also accepts python lists but doesn't return anything:

qvar2=QtCore.QVariant([1,2,3])
print qvar2.toList()
