- Thread-topic: NSFilesPromisePboardType with copy/paste
I searched the archives and saw quite a lot discussion about NSFilesPromisePboardType with DnD. In my code the DnD part also works well. I also tried to implement NSFilesPromisePboardType for copy/paste, but never work. So my question is, after I put something into pasteboard, how can I get notification when another application does paste?
Here is my test code:
NSPasteboard *pboard = [NSPasteboard generalPasteboard];
NSMutableArray *types = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[types addObject:NSFilesPromisePboardType];
[pboard declareTypes:types owner:self];
[types release];
I also implemented namesOfPromisedFilesDroppedAtDestination, which just provide the file path. After I run, the paste item with both Finder and PasteboardKeeper is never highlighted, so I can not paste. If I click 'Show clipboard', it shows nothing in the window, and show 'Clipboard contents: unknown' in the bottom status bar.
I also tried first put NSFilenamesPboardType into pboard, and implemented pasteboard:provideDataForType:, and still nothing happen.
So my question is:
1. Is there any promised file copy/paste?
2. How can I get paste notification? Can I get destination path then I can write files directly to destination like promised DnD did?
Thanks for any help._______________________________________________
