DESCRIPTION

The QIntValidator class provides a validator which ensures that a string contains a valid integer within a specified range.

Example of use:

 
QValidator* validator = new QIntValidator( 100, 999, this );
QLineEdit* edit = new QLineEdit( this );

// the edit lineedit will only accept integers between 100 and 999
edit->setValidator( validator );

Below we present some examples of validators. In practice they would normally be associated with a widget as in the example above.

 
QString str;
int pos = 0;
QIntValidator v( 100, 999, this );

str = "1";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Intermediate
str = "12";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Intermediate

str = "123";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Acceptable
str = "678";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Acceptable

str = "1234";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Invalid
str = "-123";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Invalid
str = "abc";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Invalid
str = "12cm";
v.validate( str, pos ); // returns Invalid

The minimum and maximum values are set in one call with setRange() or individually with setBottom() and setTop().

MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

QIntValidator::QIntValidator ( QObject * parent, const char * name = 0 )

Constructs a validator called name with parent parent, that accepts all integers.

QIntValidator::QIntValidator ( int minimum, int maximum, QObject * parent, const char * name = 0 )

Constructs a validator called name with parent parent, that accepts integers from minimum to maximum inclusive.

QIntValidator::~QIntValidator ()

Destroys the validator, freeing any resources allocated.

int QIntValidator::bottom () const

Returns the validator's lowest acceptable value. See the "bottom" property for details.

void QIntValidator::setBottom ( int )

Sets the validator's lowest acceptable value. See the "bottom" property for details.

void QIntValidator::setRange ( int bottom, int top ) [virtual]

Sets the range of the validator to only accept integers between bottom and top inclusive.

void QIntValidator::setTop ( int )

Sets the validator's highest acceptable value. See the "top" property for details.

int QIntValidator::top () const

Returns the validator's highest acceptable value. See the "top" property for details.

QValidator::State QIntValidator::validate ( QString & input, int & ) const [virtual]

Returns Acceptable if the input is an integer within the valid range, Intermediate if the input is an integer outside the valid range and Invalid if the input is not an integer.

Note: If the valid range consists of just positive integers (e.g. 32 - 100) and input is a negative integer then Invalid is returned.

 
int pos = 0;
s = "abc";
v.validate( s, pos ); // returns Invalid

s = "5";
v.validate( s, pos ); // returns Intermediate

s = "50";
v.validate( s, pos ); // returns Valid

Reimplemented from QValidator.
