Hi fellow hackers,
While investigating this bug
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33100
which involves Windows' clipboard handling, I've come to the realization
that, there are two ways to communicate with the clipboard on Windows.
One is to use the regular clipboard API
I stand under correction, but I believe the correct answer is that ideally, you
need to support **both**.
I think the second one is the newer one, and Windows provides some support for
interfacing applications using the first
one with applications using the second one.
Which is why you see

So, I'm still not understanding this fully. Why is it that, when you
use the 2nd API, you only see some of the formats, not all?
One possibility might be that the first API also returns synthesized
clipboard formats. For instance, if you put CF_UNICODETEXT format data
on the clipboard, Windows

As a test, I
wrote another quick program to retrieve the clipboard format info using
the IDataObject API,
And here is the code (attached) that I used to retrieve the clipboard
