RGFW 底层：剪贴板复制/粘贴

Introduction

Reading and writing to the clipboard using low-level APIs can be tricky. There are a bunch of steps required. This tutorial simplifies the process so you can easily read and write to the clipboard using the low-level APIs.

The tutorial is based on RGFW's source code and its usage of the low-level APIs.

Note: the cocoa code is written in Pure-C.

Overview

1) Clipboard Paste

• X11 (init atoms, convert section, get data)
• Win32 (open clipboard, get data, convert data, close clipboard)
• Cocoa (set datatypes, get pasteboard, get data, convert data)

2) Clipboard Copy

• X11 (init atoms, convert section, handle request, send data)
• Win32 (setup global object, convert data, open clipboard, convert string, send data, close clipboard)
• Cocoa (create datatype array, declare types, convert string, send data)

Clipboard Paste

X11

To handle the clipboard, you must create some Atoms via XInternAtom.
X Atoms are used to ask for or send specific data or properties through X11.

You'll need three atoms,

1) UTF8_STRING: Atom for a UTF-8 string.
2) CLIPBOARD: Atom for getting clipboard data.
3) XSEL_DATA: Atom to get selection data.

const Atom UTF8_STRING = XInternAtom(display, "UTF8_STRING", True);
const Atom CLIPBOARD = XInternAtom(display, "CLIPBOARD", 0);
const Atom XSEL_DATA = XInternAtom(display, "XSEL_DATA", 0);

Now, to get the clipboard data you have to request that the clipboard section be converted to UTF8 using XConvertSelection.

use XSync to send the request to the server.

XConvertSelection(display, CLIPBOARD, UTF8_STRING, XSEL_DATA, window, CurrentTime);
XSync(display, 0);

The selection will be converted and sent back to the client as a XSelectionNotify event. You can get the next event, which should be the SelectionNotify event with XNextEvent.

XEvent event;
XNextEvent(display, &event);

Check if the event is a SelectionNotify event and use .selection to ensure the type is a CLIPBOARD. Also make sure .property is not 0 and can be retrieved.

if (event.type == SelectionNotify && event.xselection.selection == CLIPBOARD && event.xselection.property != 0) {

You can get the converted data via XGetWindowProperty using the selection property.

    int format;
    unsigned long N, size;
    char* data, * s = NULL;
    Atom target;

    XGetWindowProperty(event.xselection.display, event.xselection.requestor,
        event.xselection.property, 0L, (~0L), 0, AnyPropertyType, &target,
        &format, &size, &N, (unsigned char**) &data);

Make sure the data is in the right format by checking target

    if (target == UTF8_STRING || target == XA_STRING) {

The data is stored in data, once you're done with it free it with XFree.

You can also delete the property via XDeleteProperty.

        XFree(data);
    }

    XDeleteProperty(event.xselection.display, event.xselection.requestor, event.xselection.property);
}

winapi

First, open the clipboard OpenClipboard.

if (OpenClipboard(NULL) == 0)
    return 0;

Get the clipboard data as a utf16 string via GetClipboardData

If the data is NULL, you should close the clipboard using CloseClipboard

HANDLE hData = GetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT);
if (hData == NULL) {
    CloseClipboard();
    return 0;
}

Next, you need to convert the utf16 data back to utf8.

Start by locking memory for the utf8 data via GlobalLock.

wchar_t* wstr = (wchar_t*) GlobalLock(hData);

Use setlocale to ensure the data format is utf8.

Get the size of the UTF-8 version with wcstombs.

setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.UTF-8");

size_t textLen = wcstombs(NULL, wstr, 0);

If the size is valid, convert the data using wcstombs.

if (textLen) {
    char* text = (char*) malloc((textLen * sizeof(char)) + 1);

    wcstombs(text, wstr, (textLen) + 1);
    text[textLen] = '\0';

    free(text);
}

Make sure to free leftover global data using GlobalUnlock and close the clipboard with CloseClipboard.

GlobalUnlock(hData);
CloseClipboard();

cocoa

Cocoa uses NSPasteboardTypeString to ask for string data. You'll have to define this yourself if you're not using Objective-C.

NSPasteboardType const NSPasteboardTypeString = "public.utf8-plain-text";

Although the is a c-string and Cocoa uses NSStrings, you can convert the c-string to an NSString via stringWithUTF8String.

NSString* dataType = objc_msgSend_class_char(objc_getClass("NSString"), sel_registerName("stringWithUTF8String:"), (char*)NSPasteboardTypeString);

Now we'll use generalPasteboard to get the default pasteboard object.

NSPasteboard* pasteboard = objc_msgSend_id((id)objc_getClass("NSPasteboard"), sel_registerName("generalPasteboard")); 

Then you can get the pasteboard's string data with the dataType using stringForType.

However, it will give you an NSString, which can be converted with UTF8String.

NSString* clip = ((id(*)(id, SEL, const char*))objc_msgSend)(pasteboard, sel_registerName("stringForType:"), dataType);
const char* str = ((const char* (*)(id, SEL)) objc_msgSend) (clip, sel_registerName("UTF8String"));

Clipboard Copy

X11

To copy to the clipboard you'll need a few more Atoms.

1) SAVE_TARGETS: To request a section to convert to (for copying).
2) TARGETS: To handle one requested target
3) MULTIPLE: When there are multiple request targets
4) ATOM_PAIR: To get the supported data types.
5) CLIPBOARD_MANAGER: To access data from the clipboard manager.

const Atom SAVE_TARGETS = XInternAtom((Display*) display, "SAVE_TARGETS", False);
const Atom TARGETS = XInternAtom((Display*) display, "TARGETS", False);
const Atom MULTIPLE = XInternAtom((Display*) display, "MULTIPLE", False);
const Atom ATOM_PAIR = XInternAtom((Display*) display, "ATOM_PAIR", False);
const Atom CLIPBOARD_MANAGER = XInternAtom((Display*) display, "CLIPBOARD_MANAGER", False);

We can request a clipboard section. First, set the owner of the section to be a client window via XSetSelectionOwner. Next request a converted section using XConvertSelection.

XSetSelectionOwner((Display*) display, CLIPBOARD, (Window) window, CurrentTime);

XConvertSelection((Display*) display, CLIPBOARD_MANAGER, SAVE_TARGETS, None, (Window) window, CurrentTime);

The rest of the code would exist in an event loop. You can create an external event loop from your main event loop if you wish or add this to your main event loop.

We'll be handling SelectionRequest in order to update the clipboard selection to the string data.

if (event.type == SelectionRequest) {
    const XSelectionRequestEvent* request = &event.xselectionrequest;

At the end of the SelectionNotify event, a response will be sent back to the requester. The structure should be created here and modified depending on the request data.

    XEvent reply = { SelectionNotify };
    reply.xselection.property = 0;

The first target we will handle is TARGETS when the requestor wants to know which targets are supported.

    if (request->target == TARGETS) {

I will create an array of supported targets

        const Atom targets[] = { TARGETS,
                                MULTIPLE,
                                UTF8_STRING,
                                XA_STRING };

This array can be passed using XChangeProperty.

I'll also change the selection property so the requestor knows what property we changed.

        XChangeProperty(display,
            request->requestor,
            request->property,
            4,
            32,
            PropModeReplace,
            (unsigned char*) targets,
            sizeof(targets) / sizeof(targets[0]));

        reply.xselection.property = request->property;
    }

Next, I will handle MULTIPLE targets.

    if (request->target == MULTIPLE) {

We'll start by getting the supported targets via XGetWindowProperty

        Atom* targets = NULL;

        Atom actualType = 0;
        int actualFormat = 0;
        unsigned long count = 0, bytesAfter = 0;

        XGetWindowProperty(display, request->requestor, request->property, 0, LONG_MAX, False, ATOM_PAIR, &actualType, &actualFormat, &count, &bytesAfter, (unsigned char **) &targets);

Now we'll loop through the supported targets. If the supported targets match one of our supported targets, we can pass the data with XChangeProperty.

If the target is not used, the second argument should be set to None, marking it as unused.

        unsigned long i;
        for (i = 0; i < count; i += 2) {
            if (targets[i] == UTF8_STRING || targets[i] == XA_STRING) {
                XChangeProperty((Display*) display,
                    request->requestor,
                    targets[i + 1],
                    targets[i],
                    8,
                    PropModeReplace,
                    (unsigned char*) text,
                    sizeof(text));
                XFlush(display);
            } else {
                targets[i + 1] = None;
            }
        }

You can pass the final array of supported targets to the requestor using XChangeProperty. This tells the requestor which targets to expect for the original list it sent.

The message will be sent out asap when XFlush is called.

You can free your copy of the target array with XFree.

        XChangeProperty((Display*) display,
            request->requestor,
            request->property,
            ATOM_PAIR,
            32,
            PropModeReplace,
            (unsigned char*) targets,
            count);

        XFlush(display);
        XFree(targets);

        reply.xselection.property = request->property;
    }

For the final step of the event, send the selection back to the requestor via XSendEvent.

Then flush the queue with XFlush.

    reply.xselection.display = request->display;
    reply.xselection.requestor = request->requestor;
    reply.xselection.selection = request->selection;
    reply.xselection.target = request->target;
    reply.xselection.time = request->time;

    XSendEvent((Display*) display, request->requestor, False, 0, &reply);
    XFlush(display);
}

winapi

First allocate global memory for your data and your utf-8 buffer with GlobalAlloc

HANDLE object = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_MOVEABLE, (1 + textLen) * sizeof(WCHAR));
WCHAR*  buffer = (WCHAR*) GlobalLock(object);

Next, you can use MultiByteToWideChar to convert your string to a wide string.

MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8, 0, text, -1, buffer, textLen);

Now unlock the global object and open the clipboard

GlobalUnlock(object);
OpenClipboard(NULL);

To update the clipboard data, you start by clearing what's currently on the clipboard via EmptyClipboard you can use SetClipboardData to set the data to the utf8 object.

Finally, close the clipboard with CloseClipboard.

EmptyClipboard();
SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, object);

CloseClipboard();

cocoa

Start by creating an array of the type of data you want to put on the clipboard and convert it to an NSArray using initWithObjects.

NSPasteboardType ntypes[] = { dataType };

NSArray* array = ((id (*)(id, SEL, void*, NSUInteger))objc_msgSend)
                    (NSAlloc(objc_getClass("NSArray")), sel_registerName("initWithObjects:count:"), ntypes, 1);

Use declareTypes to declare the array as the supported data types.

You can also free the NSArray with NSRelease.

((NSInteger(*)(id, SEL, id, void*))objc_msgSend) (pasteboard, sel_registerName("declareTypes:owner:"), array, NULL);
NSRelease(array);

You can convert the string to want to copy to an NSString via stringWithUTF8String and set the clipboard string to be that NSString using setString.

NSString* nsstr = objc_msgSend_class_char(objc_getClass("NSString"), sel_registerName("stringWithUTF8String:"), text);

((bool (*)(id, SEL, id, NSPasteboardType))objc_msgSend) (pasteboard, sel_registerName("setString:forType:"), nsstr, dataType);
