     * \class LiteralValue literalvalue.h Soprano/LiteralValue
     *
     * \brief Represents a literal value of an RDF Node.
     *
     * LiteralValue is based on QVariant to support
     * a subset of the XML Schema types that are compatible
     * with QT types.
     *
     * The following types are supported natively including
     * automatic type conversion. Other types are represented
     * as strings.
     *
     * \li int (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::xsdInt)
     * \li qlonglong (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::xsdLong)
     * \li unsigned int (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::unsignedInt)
     * \li qulonglong (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::unsignedLong)
     * \li bool (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::boolean)
     * \li double and float (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::xsdDouble) (float values are always converted to double)
     * \li QString (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::string or Vocabulary::RDF::XMLLiteral)
     * \li QDate (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::date)
     * \li QTime (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::time)
     * \li QDateTime (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::dateTime)
     * \li QByteArray (Vocabulary::XMLSchema::base64Binary)
     *
     * Literal values can be converted from strings via fromString().
     *
     * \sa Vocabulary::XMLSchema
