The Qt types used for our private members, e.g., QPushButton, QLineEdit,
QTextEdit, etc., need to be included with the \c include directive, as
shown below:

\note The names, e.g., \c addButton etc., correspond to the name of the
actual object. You can modify them by double-clicking on their names within
\QD's \gui{Object Inspector}.

We define a public function, \c getFindText(), to be used by classes that
instantiate \c FindDialog. This function allows the these classes to obtain
the search string entered by the user. A public slot, \c findClicked(), is
also defined to handle the search string when the user clicks the \gui Find
button.

Now, lets look at our constructor in the \c{finddialog.cpp} file. Here, we
set up the private variables, \c lineEdit, \c findButton, and \c findText.
\snippet examples/addressbook-sdk/part5/finddialog.cpp constructor
We connect our signals to their respective slots. Notice that
\c{findButton}'s \l{QPushButton:}{clicked()} signal is connected to
\c findClicked() and \l{QDialog::}{accept()}. The \l{QDialog::}{accept()}
slot provided by QDialog hides the dialog and sets the result code to
\l{QDialog::}{Accepted}. We use this function to help \c{AddressBook}'s
\c findContact() function know when the \c FindDialog object has been
closed. We will explain this logic in further detail when discussing the
\c findContact() function.

In \c findClicked(), we validate to ensure that the user did not click the
\gui Find button without entering a contact's name. Then, we set
\c findText to the search string, extracted from \c lineEdit. After that,
we clear the contents of \c lineEdit and hide the dialog.
