+\class QxtNullable QxtNullable
+\ingroup QxtCore
+\brief distinct null value compatible with any data type.
+
+in general it's a templated abstraction to allow any data type to be
+expressed with a null value distinct from any real value. An example
+of such a use is for optional arguments.
+\n
+prepare a function for argument skipping:
+
+\code
+void  somefunction( qxtNull(int,a) , qxtNull(int,b) )
+{
+
+if (!a.isNull())
+	{
+	int i = a.value();
+	//do something with i
+	}
+ if (!b.isNull())
+	{
+	int x = b.value();
+	//do something with x
+	}
+}
+\endcode
+
+usage:
+\code
+
+somefunction(SKIP,1,2);
+somefunction(3,4);
+somefunction(3,SKIP,6);
+somefunction(1);
+\endcode
