The object's parent is \fIparent\fR and its name is \fIname\fR. +.SH "QRegExpValidator::QRegExpValidator ( const QRegExp & rx, QObject * parent, const char * name = 0 )" +Constructs a validator which accepts all strings that match the regular expression \fIrx\fR. The object's parent is \fIparent\fR and its name is \fIname\fR. +.PP +The match is made against the entire string, e.g. if the regexp is \fB[A-Fa-f0-9]+\fR it will be treated as \fB^[A-Fa-f0-9]+$\fR. +.SH "QRegExpValidator::~QRegExpValidator ()" +Destroys the validator, freeing any resources allocated. +.SH "const QRegExp & QRegExpValidator::regExp () const" +Returns the regular expression used for validation. +.PP +See also setRegExp(). +.SH "void QRegExpValidator::setRegExp ( const QRegExp & rx )" +Sets the regular expression used for validation to \fIrx\fR. +.PP +See also regExp(). +.SH "QValidator::State QRegExpValidator::validate ( QString & input, int & pos ) const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns Acceptable if \fIinput\fR is matched by the regular expression for this validator, Intermediate if it has matched partially (i.e. could be a valid match if additional valid characters are added), and Invalid if \fIinput\fR is not matched. +.PP +The \fIpos\fR parameter is set to the length of the \fIinput\fR parameter. +.PP +For example, if the regular expression is \fB\w\d\d\fR (that is, word-character, digit, digit) then "A57" is Acceptable," E5" is Intermediate and "+9" is Invalid. +.PP +See also QRegExp::match() and QRegExp::search(). +.PP +Reimplemented from QValidator. + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR http://doc.trolltech.com/qregexpvalidator.html +.BR http://www.trolltech.com/faq/tech.html +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright 1992-2007 Trolltech ASA, http://www.trolltech.com.
