setValidator

[:db:sStrong]

hello guys,

i have a question about whether there is a way to use setValidator for the qtable. I have 3 cols and one of them is editable but i want to restrict the users to type for example integers between 2 and 16000. can someone tell me if it is possible??. I use qt3 and am a beginner on this area.

thanx in advance.

You might try to reimplement this:
QWidget * QTableItem::createEditor () const [virtual]
This virtual function creates an editor which the user can interact with to edit the cell's contents. The default implementation creates a QLineEdit.
If the function returns 0, the cell is read-only.
The returned widget should preferably be invisible, ideally with QTable::viewport() as parent.
If you reimplement this function you'll almost certainly need to reimplement setContentFromEditor(), and may need to reimplement sizeHint()
or QTable::createEditor().

yes it works like this en thnx for the information.. i have now another problem with the validate values.. i want to type only the integers bigger than 2 and smaller than 16000. i have this line code:---


QRegExp RegExp( "^[3-9]\\d{0,4}$" );

but this is ofcourse not good because i validate the values between 3 to 9 and with 4 zeros.. is there a way to just validate this 2> and <16000??

thnx in advance..

Try:
"^1[0-5]\\d{3}|[1-9]\\d\\d?|[2-9]$"

[:db:sStrong]

Try:
"^1[0-5]\\d{3}|[1-9]\\d\\d?|[2-9]$"

no it does not work, i shouldnt type 1, 2 all integers bigger dan 2 and smaller than 16000 :(

its a bit tricky cuz if i dont want to type 1 then i am not able to type 11 and 16000..

Does this work?
"^(?:1[0-5]\\d{3}|[1-9]\\d{1,3}|[3-9])$"

[:db:sStrong]

Does this work?
"^(?:1[0-5]\\d{3}|[1-9]\\d{1,3}|[3-9])$"

this works partially.. the integers < 16000 works fine but i am still able to type 1 and 2.. this part doent work >2(bigger than 2 means no 0, 1 and 2)

but i am still able to type 1 and 2.. this part doent work >2(bigger than 2 means no 0, 1 and 2)
How do you expect to type in 11111 if you can't type in 1?

How do you expect to type in 11111 if you can't type in 1?

yep thats why it is abit dumb if am not able to type 1 then i cant type 11111 either but i have to find way to dont allow 1 an 2 but do allow i.e 11, 11111, 12, 12222...

It should work --- according to kregexpeditor the above regexp doesn't match "0", "1" and "2".

You could use QSpinBox instead of QLineEdit.

Couldn't you find a way to access the string, convert it to integer and check if it match your needs?
I guess some signals or event allows you to do that...
