how to issue the command of Ctrl-C (copy) in Java
807605Jul 18 2007 — edited Jul 18 2007In Java is it possible to issue the command of Ctrl-C (copy) directly from a program, suppose I have many different windows running on my desktop(Win XP) but since in MS Windows OS at one time only one window is active, lets say the active window is Java Application
which I have purchased from a vendor, is it possible to write a program in which when ever the user enters some hot key lets say Ctrl-F1 than my Java program traps this event and issue a command of Ctrl-C at the
back end, as a consequence any selected text written in these Java windows would be Copied, to issue Ctrl-C command will I need to access the Win 32 API or is this possible directly using Java, please guide me how can this be possible, I would be thankful to you from
the depth of my heart if you can guide me to the solution.
Thanking You,
