The GtkClipboard object represents a clipboard of data shared
between different processes or between different widgets in
the same process. Each clipboard is identified by a name encoded as a
GdkAtom. (Conversion to and from strings can be done with
gdk_atom_intern()
and gdk_atom_name()
.) The default clipboard
corresponds to the "CLIPBOARD" atom; another commonly used clipboard
is the "PRIMARY" clipboard, which, in X, traditionally contains
the currently selected text.
To support having a number of different formats on the clipboard
at the same time, the clipboard mechanism allows providing
callbacks instead of the actual data. When you set the contents
of the clipboard, you can either supply the data directly (via
functions like gtk_clipboard_set_text()
), or you can supply a
callback to be called at a later time when the data is needed (via
gtk_clipboard_set_with_data()
or gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner()
.)
Providing a callback also avoids having to make copies of the data
when it is not needed.
gtk_clipboard_set_with_data()
and gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner()
are quite similar; the choice between the two depends mostly on
which is more convenient in a particular situation.
The former is most useful when you want to have a blob of data
with callbacks to convert it into the various data types that you
advertise. When the clear_func
you provided is called, you
simply free the data blob. The latter is more useful when the
contents of clipboard reflect the internal state of a GObject
(As an example, for the PRIMARY clipboard, when an entry widget
provides the clipboard's contents the contents are simply the
text within the selected region.) If the contents change, the
entry widget can call gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner()
to update
the timestamp for clipboard ownership, without having to worry
about clear_func
being called.
Requesting the data from the clipboard is essentially
asynchronous. If the contents of the clipboard are provided within
the same process, then a direct function call will be made to
retrieve the data, but if they are provided by another process,
then the data needs to be retrieved from the other process, which
may take some time. To avoid blocking the user interface, the call
to request the selection, gtk_clipboard_request_contents()
takes a
callback that will be called when the contents are received (or
when the request fails.) If you don't want to deal with providing
a separate callback, you can also use gtk_clipboard_wait_for_contents()
.
What this does is run the GLib main loop recursively waiting for
the contents. This can simplify the code flow, but you still have
to be aware that other callbacks in your program can be called
while this recursive mainloop is running.
Along with the functions to get the clipboard contents as an
arbitrary data chunk, there are also functions to retrieve
it as text, gtk_clipboard_request_text()
and
gtk_clipboard_wait_for_text()
. These functions take care of
determining which formats are advertised by the clipboard
provider, asking for the clipboard in the best available format
and converting the results into the UTF-8 encoding. (The standard
form for representing strings in GTK+.)
void (*GtkClipboardReceivedFunc) (GtkClipboard *clipboard
,GtkSelectionData *selection_data
,gpointer data
);
A function to be called when the results of gtk_clipboard_request_contents()
are received, or when the request fails.
|
the GtkClipboard |
|
a GtkSelectionData containing the data was received.
If retrieving the data failed, then then length field
of selection_data will be negative. |

,const gchar *text
,gpointer data
);
A function to be called when the results of gtk_clipboard_request_text()
are received, or when the request fails.
|
the GtkClipboard |
|

,gpointer data
);
A function to be called when the results of gtk_clipboard_request_image()
are received, or when the request fails.
|

Since 2.6
void (*GtkClipboardTargetsReceivedFunc) (GtkClipboard *clipboard
,GdkAtom *atoms
,gint n_atoms
,gpointer data
);
A function to be called when the results of gtk_clipboard_request_targets()
are received, or when the request fails.
|
the GtkClipboard |
|
the supported targets, as array of GdkAtom, or NULL
if retrieving the data failed. |
|
the length of the atoms array. |
|
the user_data supplied to gtk_clipboard_request_targets() . |
Since 2.4
void (*GtkClipboardRichTextReceivedFunc) (GtkClipboard *clipboard
,GdkAtom format
,const guint8 *text
,gsize length
,gpointer data
);
void (*GtkClipboardURIReceivedFunc) (GtkClipboard *clipboard
,gchar **uris
,gpointer data
);
void (*GtkClipboardGetFunc) (GtkClipboard *clipboard
,GtkSelectionData *selection_data
,guint info
,gpointer user_data_or_owner
);
A function that will be called to provide the contents of the selection.
If multiple types of data were advertised, the requested type can
be determined from the info
parameter or by checking the target field
of selection_data
. If the data could successfully be converted into
then it should be stored into the selection_data
object by
calling gtk_selection_data_set()
(or related functions such
as gtk_selection_data_set_text()
). If no data is set, the requestor
will be informed that the attempt to get the data failed.
|
the GtkClipboard |
|
a GtkSelectionData argument in which the requested data should be stored. |
|
the info field corresponding to the requested
target from the GtkTargetEntry array passed to
gtk_clipboard_set_with_data() or gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner() . |
|
the user_data argument passed to gtk_clipboard_set_with_data() , or
the owner argument passed to gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner()
|
void (*GtkClipboardClearFunc) (GtkClipboard *clipboard
,gpointer user_data_or_owner
);
A function that will be called when the contents of the clipboard are changed
or cleared. Once this has called, the user_data_or_owner
argument
will not be used again.
|
the GtkClipboard |
|
the user_data argument passed to gtk_clipboard_set_with_data() , or
the owner argument passed to gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner()
|
GtkClipboard * gtk_clipboard_get (GdkAtom selection
);
Returns the clipboard object for the given selection.
See gtk_clipboard_get_for_display()
for complete details.
|
a GdkAtom which identifies the clipboard to use |
Returns : |
the appropriate clipboard object. If no clipboard already exists, a new one will be created. Once a clipboard object has been created, it is persistent and, since it is owned by GTK+, must not be freed or unreffed. [transfer none] |
GtkClipboard * gtk_clipboard_get_for_display (GdkDisplay *display
,GdkAtom selection
);
Returns the clipboard object for the given selection.
Cut/copy/paste menu items and keyboard shortcuts should use
the default clipboard, returned by passing GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD
for selection
.
(GDK_NONE
is supported as a synonym for GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD
for backwards compatibility reasons.)
The currently-selected object or text should be provided on the clipboard
identified by GDK_SELECTION_PRIMARY. Cut/copy/paste menu items
conceptually copy the contents of the GDK_SELECTION_PRIMARY clipboard
to the default clipboard, i.e. they copy the selection to what the
user sees as the clipboard.
(Passing GDK_NONE is the same as using gdk_atom_intern
("CLIPBOARD", FALSE)
. See
http://www.freedesktop.org/Standards/clipboards-spec
for a detailed discussion of the "CLIPBOARD" vs. "PRIMARY"
selections under the X window system. On Win32 the
GDK_SELECTION_PRIMARY clipboard is essentially ignored.)
It's possible to have arbitrary named clipboards; if you do invent new clipboards, you should prefix the selection name with an underscore (because the ICCCM requires that nonstandard atoms are underscore-prefixed), and namespace it as well. For example, if your application called "Foo" has a special-purpose clipboard, you might call it "_FOO_SPECIAL_CLIPBOARD".
|
the display for which the clipboard is to be retrieved or created |
|
a GdkAtom which identifies the clipboard to use. |
Returns : |
the appropriate clipboard object. If no clipboard already exists, a new one will be created. Once a clipboard object has been created, it is persistent and, since it is owned by GTK+, must not be freed or unrefd. [transfer none] |

,GtkClipboardClearFunc clear_func
,GObject *owner
);
Virtually sets the contents of the specified clipboard by providing a list of supported formats for the clipboard data and a function to call to get the actual data when it is requested.
The difference between this function and gtk_clipboard_set_with_data()
is that instead of an generic user_data
pointer, a GObject is passed
in.

or
gtk_clipboard_clear()
has not subsequently called, returns the owner set
by gtk_clipboard_set_with_owner()
.

and when the clear_func
you supplied is called. Otherwise, the
clipboard may be owned by someone else.

Requests the contents of the clipboard as text. When the text is
later received, it will be converted to UTF-8 if necessary, and
callback
will be called.
