Unable to copy text values in CLipboard in Ubuntu 8.1

Hi all ,
Im using the following code to copy the text:
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.datatransfer.Clipboard;
import java
     .awt
     .datatransfer
     .StringSelection;
import java
     .awt
     .datatransfer
     .Transferable;
public class TextWriter {
     public static void writeToClipboard(String writeMe) {
          // get the system clipboard
          Clipboard systemClipboard =
               Toolkit
                    .getDefaultToolkit()
                    .getSystemClipboard();
          // set the textual content on the clipboard to our
          // transferable object
          // we use the
          Transferable transferableText =
               new StringSelection(writeMe);
          systemClipboard.setContents(
               transferableText,
               null);
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          System.out.println(
               "Writing text to the system clipboard.");
          String writeMe =
               "I'd like to be put on the clipboard";
          writeToClipboard(writeMe);
}After running the application when I try to paste it in GEDIT , it is not pasting .
Also in menubar the PASTE is also not getting enable.
Can anybody tell how to copy text .
OS used Ubuntu 8.1 and java version 1.6 update 10
Thanks and regards

Copy cannot be disabled to my knowledge. Did you try quitting Safari and resetting your iPad? To quit an app double click the Home button to reveal the row of recently used apps. Flick up on the page preview and it will fly away and disappear. That quits the app. Then Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • Why am I unable to copy and paste from clipboard?

    I am able to copy text from Safari on iPad 3, but it is not saving to clipboard because I am unable to paste it (no paste option comes up when I tap). Sometimes it also pastes a previously copied text from the clipboard instead. How can I fix this?

    but it is not saving to clipboard because I am unable to paste it (no paste option comes up when I tap).
    you would benefit from telling where you are when no paste option comes up with you tab because it's up to the app if they support paste at all

  • I find that I can no longer copy text to the clipboard.

    Why can I no longer copy text to my clipboard?

    Here is a little more information.  Last week everything worked fine.  I opened the same document yesterday and tried to copy some text to the clipboard and now I get an error message saying "can not copy to clipboard, internal error.  I also find that pdf files from the internet will not load and all I get is a small black x box in the upper left corner of the screen.  Went through the steps in control panel and adobe is enabled.

  • I'm unable to copy text out of an ADE book.

    Recently bought a new Windows PC and transferred all files to it from my old one.  Installed ADE successfully, gave it my authorization ID and all is well.  I'm able to open the book I'm interested in and browse all through it.  But I'm unable to copy text out of it.  I highlight the text in the book and when I either right-click or pull down the Edit menu, the Copy function is grayed out and clicking on it does nothing.  Ctrl-C also doesn't do anything.  This worked on my old PC.  What's up here?  Thanks for any help.  Jim

  • Unable to copy text from Word (for Mac) into Safari

    I am unable to copy text from Word (for Mac) into Safari. It doesn't seem to be recognizing that I am copying a selection of text from a word document. As when I try to paste, nothing happens. Is there a way around this?

    Disregard question, found it. Right click, or Ctrl+click to use submenu to Copy.

  • Button to copy text to the clipboard

    Reading the document "Javascript for Acrobat API Reference" Page 120:
    http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_api_reference.pdf
    the document discusses the execMenuItem command. From all that I have researched it appears I cannot create a button that copies text from a text field to the UI clipboard. 
    On page 121 the API reference says:
    To ensure a secure environment, the menu items that can be executed are limited to the following:
    ●AcroSendMail:SendMail
    ●ActualSize
    ●AddFileAttachment
    ●BookmarkShowLocation
    ●Close
    ●CropPages
    ●DeletePages.............
    ..............●ZoomViewOut
    The list is long but nowhere is "Copy" mentioned. I don't want to surreptitiously copy text or use a trusted function. I am content with the user knowing a button just copied a field of text. I just want to skip the highlighting of multiple field to get all the text. Does anyone know a way around this? I would like to copy a text field to the clipboard so the text can be entered elsewhere in another program.

    All I know is they made this impossible a long time ago, like with Acrobat 5 or 6. I recall because I took advantage of it and never discovered a workaround.

  • Copy text to Windows clipboard

    I need to copy text, either from a Flash textArea component
    or a text member, to the Windows clipboard so it can be pasted into
    a form field in a web page. I'm trying to streamline a data entry
    process and alleviating CTRL+C will be a big help. Does anyone know
    a way of doing this?
    Thanx in advance.

    If you do not need it in Shockwave, there is the free
    clipboard xtra
    from the wonderful Valentin Schmidt...
    http://staff.dasdeck.de/valentin/xtras/clipboard/
    That has a whole of of control over the clipboard and its
    contents/formats.
    If you just need a simple text to/from the clipboard routine,
    then you
    can use BuddyAPI's baCopyText() and baPasteText()

  • Programatically copying text to the clipboard

    Short: I need to programatically copy a string of text from
    either a variable or a hidden control field to the clipboard.
    Long: We have a requirement to allow the user to 'pop-up' a
    list of frequently used words, select one from the list and have
    it pasted into a field on the form. What I would prefer to do
    is select the user's words into an LOV and have the chosen word
    placed into a hidden field. If I could move the contents of
    that field to the clipboard, I can place the focus back in the
    original field ('keep cursor position' = yes) and used the
    PASTE_REGION built-in to insert the text without overwriting
    anything.
    The other method I have been experimenting with is creating my
    own 'List of Values' form. I'm using a t-list to display the
    user's word list. When-List-Changed copies the word to a visible
    text field and an OK button places the focus in the text field,
    executes the SELECT-ALL built-in, then the COPY-REGION built-in
    and returns to the calling form with the word in the clipboard.
    Problems: The user can't shrink the list by typing like they can
    with an Oracle LOV. When the focus is in the t-list, the
    DEFAULT functionality of the OK button doesn't happen. I can't
    get a When-Mouse-Doubleclick trigger to fire while in the t-list.
    In the end, I prefer the first method (the LOV) BUT... I have to
    have a field visible on the form to place focus in, select all
    of the text and copy to the clipboard. This field looks silly.
    I'm sorry this question is so long winded. Thank you for
    reading it all. Does anyone know how I might accomplish this
    requirement (professionally)?
    Thank you,
    Fouad

  • Copying text to the clipboard in AVDocDidOpen event handler causes Acrobat 9 to crash

    I'm trying to copy the filename of a document to the clipboard in a plugin with my AVDocDidOpen event handler.  It works for the first file opened; however when a second file is opened, Acrobat crashes.  The description in the application event log is: "Faulting application acrobat.exe, version 9.1.0.163, faulting module gdi32.dll, version 5.1.2600.5698, fault address 0x000074cc."
    I've confirmed that the specific WIN32 function that causes this to happen is SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT, hText);  When that line is commented out and remaining code is left unchanged, Adobe doesn't crash.
    Is there an SDK function that I should be using instead of WIN32's SetClipboardData()?  Alternately, are there other SDK functions that I need to call be before or after I call SetClipboardData()
    Bill Erickson

    Leonard,
    I tried it with both "DURING, HANDLER, END_HANDLER" and "try catch," as shown below.  However, it doesn't crash in the event handler; it crashes later, so the HANDLER/catch block is never hit.
    The string that's passed to SetClipboardData() is good, because I'm able to paste it into the filename text box of the print dialog when I try to create the "connector line" PDF.  I also got rid of all the string manipulation and tried to pass a zero-length string to the clipboard but it still crashes.
    Here's the code:
    ACCB1 void ACCB2 CFkDisposition::myAVDocDidOpenCallback(AVDoc doc, Int32 error, void *clientData)
        PDDoc pdDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(doc);
        char* pURL = ASFileGetURL(PDDocGetFile(annotDataRec->thePDDoc));
        if (pURL)    {
            if (strstr(pURL, "file://") && strstr(pURL, "Reviewed.pdf")) {
                // Opened from file system so copy filename to clipboard for connector line report
                char myURL[1000];
                strcpy(myURL, pURL);
                ASfree(pURL);    // Do this before we allocate a Windows handle just in case Windows messes with this pointer
                pURL = NULL;
                HGLOBAL hText = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_MOVEABLE, 1000);
                if (hText)    {
                    try
                        // Skip path info and go right to filename
                        char *pText = (char *)GlobalLock(hText);
                        char *pWork = strrchr(myURL,'/');
                        if (pWork)    {
                            strcpy(pText, pWork+1);
                        } else {
                            strcpy(pText, myURL);
                        char *pEnd = pText + strlen(pText);    // Get null terminator address
                        // Replace "%20" in filename with " "
                        pWork = strstr(pText, "%20");
                        while (pWork)    {
                            *pWork = ' ';
                            memmove(pWork+1, pWork+3, (pEnd - (pWork+2)));
                            pWork = strstr(pText, "%20");
                        // Append a new file extension
                        pWork = strstr(pText, ".pdf");
                        *pWork = 0;    // truncate the string before ".pdf"
                        strcat(pWork,".Connectors.pdf");
                        GlobalUnlock(hText);     // Must do this BEFORE SetClipboardData()
                        // Write it to the clipboard
                        OpenClipboard(NULL);
                        EmptyClipboard();
                        SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT, hText);     // Here's the culprit
                        CloseClipboard();
                        GlobalFree(hText);
                    } catch (char * str) {
                        AVAlertNote(str);
            if (pURL)
                ASfree(pURL);

  • Is it possible to copy text to the clipboard in Illustrator via Javascript ?

    I am working on a very basic script that exports coordinates from Illustrator.
    At the moment I am just outputing the values via $.writeln()
    I was wondering if I could copy the output values to the clipboard. If so, what
    am I looking for in the API ?
    Thanks,
    George

    For an actionscript project I will need to animate a few hundred objects to certain destinations. These destinations are given by a designer who works on the look and feel of things in Illustrator.
    I would like to make it as simple as possible for the designer to adjust things visually in Illustrator, then he can get a snippet to test in Flash as well.
    Thank you very much for the applescript idea!
    I'll use something like:
    app.system("osascript -e 'set the clipboard to \"" + code + "\"'");

  • Copying text to WIndows clipboard

    I have a JTextPane and want to be be to cut & paste text from it to Windows ckipboard so I can paste into

    So if I select text displayed in 12 point Arial, I will

    I can cut and paste the text but none of the styles

    instead of creating your own cut, copy, and paste methods:

  • I am unable to copy and paste text from mozilla, clipboard error

    Hi-
    It seems I am suddenly unable to copy and paste anything from mozilla into other text editors (word, wordpad, notepad).
    I am unable to use ctrl c or v, when trying to do Edit-copy or paste it seems as though nothing is "recognized" by Mozilla.
    I'm using a netbook running Win7.
    In an effort to fix this problem I restarted firefox, started in safe mode, disabled all plugins, returned to default settings, and have done basically everything except for uninstalling and reinstalling.
    Are there suggestions? I looked in older posts, but I also do not have the pushow.dll(or something like it) or the new.net(or comparable) malware so I cant get rid of that either.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Firefox button > Web Developer > Error Console or {Ctrl + Shft + J} from the keyboard
    Do you have any messages relating specifically to that error? <br />
    You can right-click a message and use Copy to get that message into the clipboard - and then Paste it here. (If that works.)
    Beyond that, try a new Profile (don't Delete your current Profile). <br />
