How to use Clipboard.SetText and Clipboard.GetText with Calgo?
23 Apr 2013, 10:58

This example is working perfectly out of Calgo:

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
 
class Program {
    [STAThread]
    static void Main(string[] args) {
         Clipboard.SetText("this is in clipboard now");
    }
}

However, in Calgo, no matter where i put [STAThread] i'm getting errors.

How to make this working?

thanks

This should work:

Locate System.Windows.Forms.dll in your system and add a reference to it in cAlgo.

for instance if you have framework 4.0 installed:

//#reference: C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework\v4.0\System.Windows.Forms.dll

using System;
using cAlgo.API;

using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Threading;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{

    [Robot]
    public class NewRobot : Robot
    {

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            copy_to_clipboard();
        }

        public void somethingToRunInThread()
        {
            Clipboard.SetText("this is in clipboard now");
        }

        protected void copy_to_clipboard()
        {
            Thread clipboardThread = new Thread(somethingToRunInThread);
            clipboardThread.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA);
            
            clipboardThread.Start();
        }
    }
}

} protected void copy_to_clipboard() { Thread clipboardThread = new Thread(somethingToRunInThread); clipboardThread.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA); clipboardThread.Start(); } } }

can you tell me if it is possible to do something like this in MAC OS?
