Detailed Description

Clipboard manager.

LClipboard lets you manage which clients can set the clipboard and also specify which MIME types to make persistent.

Clients can access the clipboard when one of their surfaces acquires keyboard focus.

Member Function Documentation

setClipboardRequest()

virtual bool setClipboardRequest ( LClient *  client, const LEvent &  triggeringEvent  )

virtual

Client request to set the clipboard.

Returning true grants the client permission to set the clipboard and false prohibits it.
Only a single client can set the clipboard at a time.

Default Implementation

bool LClipboard::setClipboardRequest(LClient *client, const LEvent &triggeringEvent)
{
    switch (triggeringEvent.type())
    {
    case LEvent::Type::Pointer:
        return !seat()->pointer()->focus() || seat()->pointer()->focus()->client() == client;
    case LEvent::Type::Keyboard:
        return !seat()->keyboard()->focus() || seat()->keyboard()->focus()->client() == client;
    case LEvent::Type::Touch:
        for (LTouchPoint *tp : seat()->touch()->touchPoints())
            if (tp->surface() && tp->surface()->client() == client)
                return true;
    }
 
    return false;
}

persistentMimeTypeFilter()

virtual bool persistentMimeTypeFilter ( const std::string &  mimeType ) const

virtual

Filter of persistent clipboard MIME types.

Keep the clipboard data for specific MIME types even after the client owning the clipboard data is disconnected.

Returns

true to make the MIME type persistent, false otherwise.

Default Implementation

bool LClipboard::persistentMimeTypeFilter(const std::string &mimeType) const
{
    return
        mimeType == "image/png" ||
        mimeType == "text/uri-list" ||
        mimeType == "UTF8_STRING" ||
        mimeType == "COMPOUND_TEXT" ||
        mimeType == "TEXT" ||
        mimeType == "STRING" ||
        mimeType == "text/plain;charset=utf-8" ||
        mimeType == "text/plain";
}

mimeTypes()

const std::vector< LClipboard::MimeTypeFile > & mimeTypes ( ) const

noexcept

Access to the current clipboard MIME types.
