Wt

Currently, All Typed Validators only accept WString

It would be fantastic to have an overload of validate() that takes the Type of the Validator...

This would help to run a Serverside Validation on a Programatic Level as well.
Keeping the interface Consistent if the chance to use it presents itself.

I am building a widget that does not have text input, but outputs a number. (Star Rating Widget)

I added a patch that Implements validate() for each Typed Validator:

• WDateValidator
• WDoubleValidator
• WIntValidator
• WTimeValidator

using the internal algorithm after parsing. Then using that new function instead of copying code
