/**
    @class wxValidator

    wxValidator is the base class for a family of validator classes that
    mediate between a class of control, and application data.

    A validator has three major roles:

    -#  To transfer data from a C++ variable or own storage to and from a
        control.
    -#  To validate data in a control, and show an appropriate error message.
    -#  To filter events (such as keystrokes), thereby changing the behaviour
        of the associated control.

    Validators can be plugged into controls dynamically.

    To specify a default, "null" validator, use ::wxDefaultValidator.

    For more information, please see @ref overview_validator.

    @library{wxcore}
    @category{validator}

    @stdobjects
    ::wxDefaultValidator

    @see @ref overview_validator, wxTextValidator, wxGenericValidator,
        wxIntegerValidator, wxFloatingPointValidator

        This is because validators are passed to control constructors as
        references which must be copied. Unlike objects such as pens and
        brushes, it does not make sense to have a reference counting scheme to
        do this cloning because all validators should have separate data.

        instance.
