The QtPythonValue class wraps a PyObject pointer (through the m_value member), providing a nice interface to convert between what the interpreter expects and our Qt types. Let's see how this is done. First, take a look at the three private methods: two versions of incRef() and one decRef(). PyObject contains an internal reference counter that counts the number of handles on the contained value. When that counter drops to 0, the object can be destroyed. Our three methods use adequate Python C API calls to increase or decrease the counter in order to prevent memory leaks and keep Python's garbage collector happy.
The second important aspect is that the class defines a private constructor that takes a PyObject pointer, effectively ...
