How to get the Copy data of a editable cell [message #1725705] Mon, 07 March 2016 02:41 Go to next message

Hi All,

Please see the attachment for better understanding of the below query.

To handle some use case I need to collect the copied data from the particular cell in the nat table.

In my nat table some column cells are editable and some columns are non editable, so user can copy the data from the editable cell of a particular column. And I do not know where that copied data will be stored and how to retrieve the data from that.

user either copy the data by right click on the editable cell and click on copy link and also copy with CTRL+C.

please suggest me how to get the copied data in my class.

Thank you

Regards
Shashi

As you are talking about copying data from an open editor, you are simply talking about default SWT copy&paste mechanisms. Maybe this helps: http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/SWT-JFace-Eclipse/CopyandPaste.htm

Thank you Dirk,

In this case do I contribute my own copy paste actions for a particular column cell? if yes how to disable / remove the default context actions.

Is there any way to get the copied data from the default copy action?

How about looking into the linked example and try to read the data from the Clipboard the same way as it is done in the listener there?

If you want to customize the default SWT text editor, this is the wrong forum.
