get_type_string

Returns the type string of this.

Unlike the result of calling peek_string, this string is nul-terminated. This string belongs to Variant and must not be freed.

Example: Get the type string for the type:

public static int main () {
	// Output: ``as``
	Variant var1 = new Variant.strv ({"a", "b"});
	unowned string type = var1.get_type_string ();
	print ("%s\n", type);
	return 0;
}
