[Qt-interest] QComboBox::setLineEdit()

[Joshua Grauman]

Hello again ;)

Ok, so I realized that I didn't have the function signature correct, 
setText() should take a const QString &, which is obvious and I should 
have caught it, but it still isn't calling my setText function after 
fixing that. I'm guessing it has something to do with the signature of the 
function and somehow it's still calling the base class setText, but I 
can't get it to work. Other thoughts? Thanks so much!
