Are you sure -> is the right operator here?

You didn't give us the implementation of this Validator function, so we have 
to guess. If it is:

    QSharedPointer &Validator() { return m_validator; }

Then -> is wrong. The type returned by -> is QValidator and that one has no 
isNull() method.

If it is

    QSharedPointer *Validator() { return &m_validator; }

Then -> would be correct but then there's a further problem in your code, 
where you use validator.data().
