The java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection class is the
only concrete implementation of the
java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable interface and the
java.awt.datatransfer.ClipboardOwner interface in Java 1.1.
It lets you transfer a string in plain text format.
It has the four methods it must implement to support its interfaces:
public abstract boolean isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor flavor)
public abstract DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors()
public abstract Object getTransferData(DataFlavor flavor)
throws UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException
public void lostOwnership(Clipboard clipboard, Transferable contents)
It also has a constructor you use to create a new
StringSelection object:
public StringSelection(String data)
