Hi,
I am developing an desktop application in which I want to copy the
multiple image files to the system clipboard. When I try to paste it
in the Finder, the image files should be pasted.
This is the behavior similar to Finder Copy-Paste. (I want to copy the
file paths which when pasted, actual file is pasted; Not file paths in
text/string format).
I tried using NSFilenamesPboardType, NSFIleContentsPboardType. But
system clipboard doesn't accept it.
The code using NSFilenamesPboardType:
NSPasteboard *pasteboard =[NSPasteboard pasteboardWithName:
NSGeneralPboard];
[pasteboard declareTypes:[NSArray
arrayWithObjects:NSFilenamesPboardType,nil] owner:nil];
[pasteboard setPropertyList: filePaths forType:
NSFilenamesPboardType]; // filePaths is array of files paths of images
When I tried to access propertyList from the pasteboard within the
application, I could get the array of file paths. But, it doesn't add
anything to the system clipboard. So, I am not able to copy the files
to the other applications.
(I don't want to use Drag and Drop to support inter-app copy-paste).
Could anyone help me out to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and Regards,
Deepa
