# class VarHolderImpl

Library: Foundation
Package: Dynamic
Header: Poco/Dynamic/VarHolder.h

## Description

Template based implementation of a VarHolder. This class provides type storage for user-defined types that do not have VarHolderImpl specialization.

The actual conversion work happens in the template specializations of this class.

VarHolderImpl throws following exceptions: BadCastException (if the requested conversion is not implemented) RangeException (if an attempt is made to assign a numeric value outside of the target min/max limits SyntaxException (if an attempt is made to convert a string containing non-numeric characters to number)

In order to support efficient direct extraction of the held value, all specializations must additionally implement a public member function:

    const T& value() const

returning a const reference to the actual stored value.
