I'm currently working on Java code that can copy files into the system clipboard.
For Windows and Linux I already got it working. For OSX I tried several flavors but the "Paste" action in Finder never cames active.
Any idea which DataFlavor settings are required for Finder?
Used flavors:
DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor
URILIST_FLAVOR = new DataFlavor( "text/uri-list" );
XFILELIST_FLAVOR = new DataFlavor( "application/x-java-file-list" );
GNOMEFILELIST_FLAVOR = new DataFlavor( "x-special/gnome-copied-files" );
The method to return the data for the flavor:
public Object getTransferData( DataFlavor flavor ) throws UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException {
if( FILELIST_FLAVOR.equals( flavor ) ) {
if( List.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return Arrays.asList( files );
} else if( InputStream.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return getStreamData( files, null );
}
} else if( DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor.equals( flavor ) ) {
if( List.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return locallist;
} else if( InputStream.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return getStreamData( files, null );
}
} else if( URILIST_FLAVOR.equals( flavor ) ) {
if( List.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return Arrays.asList( files );
} else if( InputStream.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return getStreamData( files, null );
}
} else if( GNOMEFILELIST_FLAVOR.equals( flavor ) ) {
if( List.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return Arrays.asList( files );
} else if( InputStream.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
// FIXME support cut and copy
return getStreamData( files, "copy" );
}
} else if( XFILELIST_FLAVOR.equals( flavor ) ) {
if( List.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return locallist;
} else if( InputStream.class == flavor.getRepresentationClass() ) {
return getStreamData( files, null );
}
}
throw new UnsupportedFlavorException( flavor );
}
Thanks, André
