Struct InProcessClipboard 

pub struct InProcessClipboard { /* private fields */ }

A clipboard private to this process, for hosts that offer no shared one.

Keeps copy → paste round-tripping inside the process so editors stay usable and the caret/clipboard core stays testable headlessly. It refuses ClipboardBackend::set_shared_text and images.

Trait Implementations

impl ClipboardBackend for InProcessClipboard

fn set_text(&self, target: ClipboardTarget, text: &str) -> bool

Take ownership of target and offer text on it. Returns false if the backend could not.

fn text(&self, target: ClipboardTarget) -> Option<String>

Read target as UTF-8. None when it is empty, unavailable, or holds something that is not text.

fn set_shared_text(&self, _target: ClipboardTarget, _text: &str) -> bool

Offer text only where other processes can read it. Returns false rather than keeping it in a buffer private to this process, so a secret is never reported as copied when it was not. The default is set_text, right for a backend that only reaches a shared clipboard.

fn name(&self) -> &'static str

Short name for diagnostics, e.g. "compositor-mirror".

fn request_text(&self, target: ClipboardTarget) -> Receiver<Option<String>>

Request text for an explicit paste. A native transfer may finish after this call returns; the backend must wake its owner when it answers. No answer may substitute text from an older selection or focus owner.

fn rich_text(&self) -> Option<RichTextOffer>

Read HTML and its plain fallback from one Ctrl+V clipboard offer. Optional: unsupported backends return None without reading plain text. A successful read consumes event-scoped offers; use the captured plain fallback if decoding refuses the HTML. Never reread to recover a stale selection, a permission refusal, or an active composition.

fn set_image(&self, width: usize, height: usize, rgba: &[u8]) -> bool

Offer an RGBA8 image on the clipboard. Optional: the default refuses, which is appropriate for backends that only carry text.

fn image(&self) -> Option<ClipboardImage>

The image on the Ctrl+V clipboard, when it holds one: a screenshot, an image copied in a viewer or a browser. Optional: the default reads none, which is right for backends that only carry text.

impl Debug for InProcessClipboard

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for InProcessClipboard

fn default() -> InProcessClipboard

Returns the “default value” for a type.
