clipboard

I am interested in learning windows system internals and how things work. I am inclined towards learning system programming on windows. With that context, I am curious to know few things on how windows clipboard internally functions: What precisely happens when we select some text, image etc and press Ctrl + C ? What precisely happens when we we press Ctrl + V in different application? Where exactly the copied data resides? Does the copied data go into kernel mode memory - that is shared across all processes? How the copied data becomes available to a different process? I want to know the

I'm making a program using java that sends the clipboard contents over sockets; I managed to make it work with strings but I'm having some troubles with images. Here is the code: //get Image Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard(); Image imageContents = (Image)clipboard.getData(DataFlavor.imageFlavor); ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon(imageContents); //sent over sockets //set Image String mime = DataFlavor.imageFlavor.getMimeType(); DataHandler contents = new DataHandler(image,mime); //set clipboard clipboard.setContents(contents, null); After setContents the

I am talking about one of these Dialog boxes that pop up: http://jquerymobile.com/test/docs/pages/page-dialogs.html (short url for mobile http://bit.ly/KhCGVD ) Click 'Open Dialog' -- on that dialog box, nothing is copy-able in iOS without unless 'data-ajax="false"' is used in the link. (works fine on Android) Putting '-webkit-user-select: auto!important;' (or 'text' instead of 'auto') does nothing. Adding the javascript 'document.documentElement.style.webkitTouchCallout = "auto";' does nothing. I am desperate to make this work as I have built an entire thing around the assumption that copy

Is there a way at all of altering the clipboard of the user via JavaScript? I want it that they click a given point on a map, and it adds the coordinates of the position to their clipboard. I do however assume that this is not possible for JavaScript to achieve. You could try using the zeroclipboard library, which involves placing an invisible flash element on the page to do the actual copy of text to the clipboard. Martijn Laarman It is in Internet Explorer, but not in other browsers although support can be hacked together in other browsers by inserting a Flash file each time you want to do a

In my application I have a pictureBox that shows an image. When user right clicks on the pictureBox and selects Copy from the context menu, I want to copy the image into the clipboard so the user can paste it in folders and anywhere else. How can I do that? EDIT: I use this code but by this user only can paste image into word. var img = Image.FromFile(pnlContent_Picture_PictureBox.ImageLocation); Clipboard.SetImage(img); Arash Milani Clipboard.SetImage copies the image content (binary data) to the clipboard not the file path. To paste a file in Windows Explorer you need to have file paths

I find myself running scripts and copy-pasting the output of these runs into emails or into some other documents. Is there a way such that I can make the copy-to-clipboard step a part of the script itself? Most of my scripts are either Perl or bat files and I work on Windows. Thanks. There's a utility called clip.exe that you can use. Just pipe the output of your script or any other command into clip.exe (First, put it on your path somewhere. If you don't have a usual place for these kindss of utilities, you can dump it in the directory you usually run your scripts from, or I've known people
