View Clipboard & Copy To Clipboard from NetBeans IDE
- by Geertjan
Thanks to this code, I can press Ctrl-Alt-V in NetBeans IDE and then view whatever is in the clipboard:
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor;
import java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable;
import java.awt.datatransfer.UnsupportedFlavorException;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import org.openide.awt.ActionRegistration;
import org.openide.awt.ActionReference;
import org.openide.awt.ActionReferences;
import org.openide.awt.ActionID;
import org.openide.util.NbBundle.Messages;
@ActionID(
category = "Tools",
id = "org.demo.ShowClipboardAction")
@ActionRegistration(
displayName = "#CTL_ShowClipboardAction")
@ActionReferences({
@ActionReference(path = "Menu/Tools", position = 5),
@ActionReference(path = "Shortcuts", name = "DA-V")
})
@Messages("CTL_ShowClipboardAction=Show Clipboard")
public final class ShowClipboardAction implements ActionListener {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, getClipboard(), "Clipboard Content", 1);
}
public String getClipboard() {
String text = null;
Transferable t = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard().getContents(null);
try {
if (t != null && t.isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor.stringFlavor)) {
text = (String) t.getTransferData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor);
}
} catch (UnsupportedFlavorException e) {
} catch (IOException e) {
}
return text;
}
}
And now I can also press Ctrl-Alt-C, which copies the path to the current file to the clipboard:
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.datatransfer.Clipboard;
import java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import org.openide.awt.ActionID;
import org.openide.awt.ActionReference;
import org.openide.awt.ActionReferences;
import org.openide.awt.ActionRegistration;
import org.openide.awt.StatusDisplayer;
import org.openide.loaders.DataObject;
import org.openide.util.NbBundle.Messages;
@ActionID(
category = "Tools",
id = "org.demo.CopyPathToClipboard")
@ActionRegistration(
displayName = "#CTL_CopyPathToClipboard")
@ActionReferences({
@ActionReference(path = "Menu/Tools", position = 0),
@ActionReference(path = "Editors/Popup", position = 10),
@ActionReference(path = "Shortcuts", name = "DA-C")
})
@Messages("CTL_CopyPathToClipboard=Copy Path to Clipboard")
public final class CopyPathToClipboardAction implements ActionListener {
private final DataObject context;
public CopyPathToClipboardAction(DataObject context) {
this.context = context;
}
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
String path = context.getPrimaryFile().getPath();
StatusDisplayer.getDefault().setStatusText(path);
StringSelection ss = new StringSelection(path);
Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
clipboard.setContents(ss, null);
}
}
