40 * Base class for validating line edits that performs validation in a virtual
41 * validate() function to be implemented in derived classes.
42 * When invalid, the text color will turn red and a tooltip will
43 * contain the error message. This approach is less intrusive than a
44 * QValidator which will prevent the user from entering certain characters.
46 * The widget has a concept of an "initialText" which can be something like
47 * "<Enter name here>". This results in state 'DisplayingInitialText', which
48 * is not valid, but is not marked red.
