<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QIntValidator class provides a validator that ensures a string contains a valid integer within a specified range.</p>
<p>Example of use:</p>

<span class="comment">// the edit lineedit will only accept integers between 100 and 999</span>

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

<p>Notice that the value <tt>999</tt> returns Intermediate. Values consisting of a number of digits equal to or less than the max value are considered intermediate. This is intended because the digit that prevents a number to be in range is not necessarily the last digit typed. This also means that an intermediate number can have leading zeros.</p>
<p>The minimum and maximum values are set in one call with <a href="qintvalidator.html#setRange">setRange</a>(), or individually with <a href="qintvalidator.html#bottom-prop">setBottom</a>() and <a href="qintvalidator.html#top-prop">setTop</a>().</p>
<p>QIntValidator uses its <a href="qvalidator.html#locale">locale</a>() to interpret the number. For example, in Arabic locales, QIntValidator will accept Arabic digits. In addition, QIntValidator is always guaranteed to accept a number formatted according to the "C" locale.</p>
