Set Clipboard Contents

问题:

I am trying to figure out why setting the contents of the system clipboard won't work for me. I programmatically set the clipboard contents. When i use the output part of the code, it works. However, when i try copy/pasting in any text editor, it is blank.

import java.awt.HeadlessException;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor;
import java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection;
import java.awt.datatransfer.UnsupportedFlavorException;
import java.io.IOException;

public class Test {
   public static void main(String[] args) throws HeadlessException,
         UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException {

      Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard()
            .setContents(new StringSelection("hi there"), null);

      System.out.println(((String) Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit()
            .getSystemClipboard().getData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor)));

   }
}

import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection;
import java.awt.datatransfer.Clipboard;

public class tester{

 public static void main(String[] args){

     // from string to clipboard
    StringSelection selection = new StringSelection("hi");
    Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
    clipboard.setContents(selection, selection);
 }
}

This program does it. It will set the String "hi" to clipboard. You can change it to a variable.

Linux cut and paste is a bit weird these days, because there are at least two different ways of doing it. In short, sometimes it's better to just paste with the middle button, and other times it's better to control-v, and sometimes neither seems to work.

Running autocutsel as a background process seems to help. http://www.nongnu.org/autocutsel/
