I need to allow the user to open a text file on the client machine and the
file contents will be set in the text widgest. Is there a way to do this in
RAP? Also, is there a way to paste the contents of clipboard into text
widgest? Any info on this would be really useful.

Thanks.

As far as I know, the only way to access client-side files is to upload
them to the server. There you can read them and set the text of the Text
widget using setText(). To receive the uploaded file on the server side,
you'd another servlet. Although this is generally possible, RAP does not
provide any facilities for this scenario yet.

Copy and paste works out of the box with the Text widget in RAP.
