+
+
+The TQRegExpValidator class is used to check a string
+against a <a href="qregexp.html#regular-expression">regular expression</a>.
+<p>
+<p> TQRegExpValidator contains a regular expression, "regexp", used to
+determine whether an input string is <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Acceptable</a>, <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Intermediate</a> or <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Invalid</a>.
+<p> The regexp is treated as if it begins with the start of string
+assertion, <b>^</b>, and ends with the end of string assertion
+<b>$</b> so the match is against the entire input string, or from
+the given position if a start position greater than zero is given.
+<p> For a brief introduction to TQt's regexp engine see <a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a>.
+<p> Example of use:
+<pre>
+ // regexp: optional '-' followed by between 1 and 3 digits
+ <a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a> rx( "-?\\d{1,3}" );
+ <a href="qvalidator.html">TQValidator</a>* validator = new TQRegExpValidator( rx, this );
+
+ <a href="qlineedit.html">TQLineEdit</a>* edit = new <a href="qlineedit.html">TQLineEdit</a>( this );
+ edit-&gt;<a href="qlineedit.html#setValidator">setValidator</a>( validator );
+ </pre>
+
+<p> Below we present some examples of validators. In practice they would
+normally be associated with a widget as in the example above.
+<p> <pre>
+ // integers 1 to 9999
+ <a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a> rx( "[1-9]\\d{0,3}" );
+ // the validator treats the regexp as "^[1-9]\\d{0,3}$"
+ TQRegExpValidator v( rx, 0 );
+ <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> s;
+ int pos = 0;
+
+ s = "0"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // returns Invalid
+ s = "12345"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // returns Invalid
+ s = "1"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // returns Acceptable
+
+ rx.<a href="qregexp.html#setPattern">setPattern</a>( "\\S+" ); // one or more non-whitespace characters
+ v.<a href="#setRegExp">setRegExp</a>( rx );
+ s = "myfile.txt"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Acceptable
+ s = "my file.txt"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Invalid
+
+ // A, B or C followed by exactly five digits followed by W, X, Y or Z
+ rx.<a href="qregexp.html#setPattern">setPattern</a>( "[A-C]\\d{5}[W-Z]" );
+ v.<a href="#setRegExp">setRegExp</a>( rx );
+ s = "a12345Z"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Invalid
+ s = "A12345Z"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Acceptable
+ s = "B12"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Intermediate
+
+ // match most 'readme' files
+ rx.<a href="qregexp.html#setPattern">setPattern</a>( "read\\S?me(\.(txt|asc|1st))?" );
+ rx.<a href="qregexp.html#setCaseSensitive">setCaseSensitive</a>( FALSE );
+ v.<a href="#setRegExp">setRegExp</a>( rx );
+ s = "readme"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Acceptable
+ s = "README.1ST"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Acceptable
+ s = "read me.txt"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Invalid
+ s = "readm"; v.<a href="#validate">validate</a>( s, pos ); // Returns Intermediate

+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQRegExpValidator"></a>TQRegExpValidator::TQRegExpValidator ( <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
+</h3>
+Constructs a validator that accepts any string (including an empty
+one) as valid. The object's parent is <em>parent</em> and its name is <em>name</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQRegExpValidator-2"></a>TQRegExpValidator::TQRegExpValidator ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;rx, <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
+</h3>
+Constructs a validator which accepts all strings that match the
+<a href="qregexp.html#regular-expression">regular expression</a> <em>rx</em>. The object's parent is <em>parent</em> and its
+name is <em>name</em>.
+<p> The match is made against the entire string, e.g. if the regexp is
+<b>[A-Fa-f0-9]+</b> it will be treated as <b>^[A-Fa-f0-9]+$</b>.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQRegExpValidator"></a>TQRegExpValidator::~TQRegExpValidator ()
+</h3>
+Destroys the validator, freeing any resources allocated.
+
+<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="regExp"></a>TQRegExpValidator::regExp () const
+</h3>
+
+<p> Returns the <a href="qregexp.html#regular-expression">regular expression</a> used for validation.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#setRegExp">setRegExp</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setRegExp"></a>TQRegExpValidator::setRegExp ( const&nbsp;<a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;rx )
+</h3>
+Sets the <a href="qregexp.html#regular-expression">regular expression</a> used for validation to <em>rx</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#regExp">regExp</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">TQValidator::State</a> <a name="validate"></a>TQRegExpValidator::validate ( <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;input, int&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;pos ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Returns <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Acceptable</a> if <em>input</em> is matched by the <a href="qregexp.html#regular-expression">regular expression</a> for this validator, <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Intermediate</a> if it has matched
+partially (i.e. could be a valid match if additional valid
+characters are added), and <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Invalid</a> if <em>input</em> is not matched.
+<p> The <em>pos</em> parameter is set to the length of the <em>input</em> parameter.
+<p> For example, if the regular expression is <b>&#92;w&#92;d&#92;d</b> (that
+is, word-character, digit, digit) then "A57" is <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Acceptable</a>,
+"E5" is <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Intermediate</a> and "+9" is <a href="qvalidator.html#State-enum">Invalid</a>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="qregexp.html#match">TQRegExp::match</a>() and <a href="qregexp.html#search">TQRegExp::search</a>().
