[Sikuli-driver] [Question #254203]: Hotkey Listener overrides hotkey use
New question #254203 on Sikuli:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/254203
I'm trying to write a java program that can listen when a user copies a text
like this:
String key = "c";
int modifiers = KeyModifier.CTRL;
HotkeyListener listener = new HotkeyListener() {
@Override
public void hotkeyPressed(HotkeyEvent hotkeyEvent) {
copyListener.executeCopy();
}
};
HotkeyManager.getInstance().addHotkey(key, modifiers, listener);
My problem is that this code overrides the global hotkey so that nothing is
actually copied to clipboard when I press ctrl + c (when I get result from
clipboard I only get what I copied before running this program, it works fine
when I'm not using this hotkeylistener though). Is it possible to let the user
copy text with ctrl + c and just listen to the event without intercepting it,
or somehow place the selected text in clipboard?

Because I want two different ways of copying with two different key combinations, can I throw a ctrl + c event in Sikuli to copy a text (or do it another way)?

Status: Answered => Solved
Max confirmed that the question is solved:
I ended up using java.awt.Robot, works as I'd like it to now. Thanks for
the answers though!
final HotkeyListener listener = new HotkeyListener() {
@Override
public void hotkeyPressed(HotkeyEvent hotkeyEvent) {
try {
HotkeyManager.getInstance().removeHotkey(key, modifiers);
Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.CTRL_DOWN_MASK);
robot.delay(100);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_C);
robot.delay(50);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_C);
robot.delay(100);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.CTRL_DOWN_MASK);
robot.delay(1000);
copyListener.executeCopy();
HotkeyManager.getInstance().addHotkey(key, modifiers, this);
} catch (AWTException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
};
A bit tricky playing around with the delays, but it doesn't need to be
fast so it's fine

have you tried
type("c", Key.CTRL)
before experimenting with the Robot class yourself?
If you need to handle individual keys, we have
key.Down(Key.CTRL)
wait(100)
type("c")
keyUp()
both solutions would replace the sequence
Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.CTRL_DOWN_MASK);
robot.delay(100);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_C);
robot.delay(50);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_C);
robot.delay(100);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.CTRL_DOWN_MASK);

It could possibly be a little problematic because I'm in my example actually physically pressing ctrl + c the same time, I think that's maybe why the delays and timing seem so critical.

ok understood.
then this should help:
wait(0.3f); // or an even higher value
type("c", Key.CTRL)
or
wait(0.3f); // or an even higher value
key.Down(Key.CTRL)
wait(0.1f)
type("c")
keyUp()
I doubt that the "inner" extra waits are needed.
sorry for the wrong wait values: a float as seconds is needed.
