I just added it, you can of course simply use a seriallized string for
exchanging any kind of data and in some cases that might be simplest.
However to use a wxDataObjectSimple, get the newest version of wxLua
from subversion.
Usage is as follows:
------------------------
d = wx.wxLuaDataObjectSimple(wx.wxDataFormat("asd"))
d.data = "x" -- store the data somewhere
print(d:SetData("aaa"), d.data, d:GetDataSize(), d:GetDataHere())
d.GetDataSize = function(d) return string.len(d.data) end
d.GetDataHere = function(d) return true, d.data end -- len must equal
GetDataSize()
d.SetData = function(d,s) d.data = s; return true end
print(d:SetData("aaa"), d.data, d:GetDataSize(), d:GetDataHere())
-----------------------------
output will be:
false x 0 false
true aaa 3 true aaa
I have not had time to test it further, but it should work with the
clipboard, please let me know if it doesn't.

John
