I have written such a widget for Libgda (GnomeDb):
* http://git.gnome.org/browse/libgda/tree/libgda-ui/data-entries/gdaui-entry.[ch]
is the basic implementation which can be further customized, for
Libgda into numeric data entry widgets and time and date data entry
widgets (ie. with a mask)
* http://git.gnome.org/browse/libgda/tree/libgda-ui/data-entries/gdaui-numeric-entry.[ch]
and http://git.gnome.org/browse/libgda/tree/libgda-ui/data-entries/gdaui-formatted-entry.[ch]
which are the specializations.
* there is a test program:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/libgda/tree/testing/gdaui-test-widget-entry.c
