The clipboard will empty when your program exits. Afaik this is normal behavior with Qt and clipboard access.
I know if I use wxWindows the text in the clipboard stays even if I close my app, however I am not sure if it's possible to do this in Qt. And use sys.exit(app.exec_()) instead. projetmbc wrote: > > I've tried the following code but the application never stops because of > app.exec_(), and when I close the application, the clipboard is "empty". > > ========================= > #!/usr/bin/env python > #coding=utf-8 > import sys > from PyQt4 import QtGui > app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv) > clipboard = app.clipboard() > clipboard.setText('texte') > app.exec_() > ========================= > > > Darren Dale a écrit : >> Have you tried constructing a QApplication first? >> >> On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 8:24 PM, projetmbc <projet...@club-internet.fr >> <mailto:projet...@club-internet.fr>> wrote: >> >> I've already try that but I have the following message : >> QWidget: Must construct a QApplication before a QPaintDevice >> >> Christophe. >> >> >> Demetrius Cassidy a écrit : >> >> from PyQt4.QtGui import QApplication >> >> clipboard = QApplication.clipboard() >> clipboard.setText('mytext') >> >> see http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/qapplication.html >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com >> <mailto:PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com> >> http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt >> >> > > > _______________________________________________ > PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com > http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Searching-for-a-very-small-scprit-using-CLIPBOARD-tp23236437p23238177.html Sent from the PyQt mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
