Access the system clipboard with JRuby

jruby · one-liners · working-environment

This is my first jruby code (written for the clipboard gem) and I was quite surprised that you only need one-liners ;)

Listing 1

def copy(text)
  Java::JavaAwt::Toolkit.default_toolkit.system_clipboard.set_contents(Java::JavaAwtDatatransfer::StringSelection.new(text), nil)
end

def paste
  Java::JavaAwt::Toolkit.default_toolkit.system_clipboard.get_data(Java::JavaAwtDatatransfer::DataFlavor.stringFlavor)
end

Looks good. Been toying with it, too a little. JRuby is Java done right ;-)
