java.awt.datatransfer |
Provides interfaces and classes for transferring data
between and within applications. It defines the notion of a
"transferable" object, which is an object capable of being
transferred between or within applications. An object identifies
itself as being transferable by implementing the Transferable
interface.
It also provides a clipboard mechanism, which is an object that
temporarily holds a transferable object that can be transferred
between or within an application. The clipboard is typically used
for copy and paste operations. Although it is possible to create
a clipboard to use within an application, most applications will
use the system clipboard to ensure the data can be transferred
across applications running on the platform.

Java Source File Name | Type | Comment |
Clipboard.java | Class | A class that implements a mechanism to transfer data using
cut/copy/paste operations. |
ClipboardOwner.java | Interface | Defines the interface for classes that will provide data to
a clipboard. |
DataFlavor.java | Class | A
DataFlavor provides meta information about data. |
FlavorEvent.java | Class | FlavorEvent is used to notify interested parties
that available
DataFlavor s have changed in the
Clipboard (the event source). |
FlavorListener.java | Interface | Defines an object which listens for
FlavorEvent s. |
FlavorMap.java | Interface | A two-way Map between "natives" (Strings), which correspond to platform-
specfic data formats, and "flavors" (DataFlavors), which corerspond to
platform-independent MIME types. |
FlavorTable.java | Interface | A FlavorMap which relaxes the traditional 1-to-1 restriction of a Map. |
MimeType.java | Class | A Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) type, as defined
in RFC 2045 and 2046. |
MimeTypeParameterList.java | Class | An object that encapsualtes the parameter list of a MimeType
as defined in RFC 2045 and 2046. |
MimeTypeParseException.java | Class | |
StringSelection.java | Class | A Transferable which implements the capability required
to transfer a String .
This Transferable properly supports
DataFlavor.stringFlavor
and all equivalent flavors. |
SystemFlavorMap.java | Class | The SystemFlavorMap is a configurable map between "natives" (Strings), which
correspond to platform-specific data formats, and "flavors" (DataFlavors),
which correspond to platform-independent MIME types. |
Transferable.java | Interface | Defines the interface for classes that can be used to provide data
for a transfer operation. |
UnsupportedFlavorException.java | Class | Signals that the requested data is not supported in this flavor. |
