Clipboard Sample

  DESCRIPTION:
    The Clipboard Sample illustrates a
    container with clipboard support.
    A popup menu appears over an object with
    cut, copy, and paste actions.
    Classes used include
    IContainerControl, IContainerObject,
    and IClipboard.

  CONCEPT/FEATURE:
    -  Create and display a container
    -  Clipboard actions for cut, copy, and paste

  HOW TO BUILD THE PROJECT FROM THE COMMAND LINE:
    From within the directory containing the sample, simply type:
         NMAKE

  HOW TO BUILD THE PROJECT FROM WITHIN THE WORKFRAME ENVIRONMENT:
    Refer to the standard Workframe BUILD instructions

  HOW TO RUN THE PROJECT FROM THE COMMAND LINE:
    From within the directory containing the sample, simply type
    the name of the executable:
         CLIPBRD

  HOW TO RUN THE PROJECT FROM WITHIN THE WORKFRAME ENVIRONMENT:
    Refer to the standard Workframe RUN instructions

  SPECIAL NOTES:
    If the sample fails to execute or
    abnormally ends, you can get
    more information about the failure
    by turning on the ICLUI trace.
    This is done by setting the
    environment variable ICLUI_TRACE
    as follows:

        set ICLUI_TRACE=ON
        set ICLUI_TRACETO=STDERR

    ICLUI_TRACETO controls where
    the trace information is reported.
    With tracing turned on, ICLUI
    exception text will be written to a
    standard error file. For example:

        sample >sample.out 2>&1

    The exception data is now in the file
    'sample.out'.

  ADDITIONAL HARDWARE/SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS:
    The paste option will not work within the same application process
    on Windows NT and Windows 3.x.
    This is a known problem and will be addressed in follow-on product
    updates.  A short term solution is lock the text data before the
    paste such as:

      void* textData = data(aFormat);
      textData = ::GlobalLock(textData);
      IString str((char*)textData);
      ::GlobalUnlock(textData);

  VISUALAGE FOR C++ SAMPLES INFORMATION:
    A complete listing of samples shipped with the VisualAge for C++
    product can be found in the online GUIDE TO SAMPLES.  To access
    this notebook, simply:

    -  Open the VISUALAGE FOR C++ program group in the Program
       Manager window, then
    -  Open the GUIDE TO SAMPLES notebook in the program group.
