Method

GdkClipboardstore_async

Declaration [src]

void
gdk_clipboard_store_async (
  GdkClipboard* clipboard,
  int io_priority,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
  gpointer user_data
)

Description [src]

Asynchronously instructs the clipboard to store its contents remotely.

If the clipboard is not local, this function does nothing but report success.

The callback must call gdk_clipboard_store_finish().

The purpose of this call is to preserve clipboard contents beyond the lifetime of an application, so this function is typically called on exit. Depending on the platform, the functionality may not be available unless a “clipboard manager” is running.

This function is called automatically when a GtkApplication is shut down, so you likely don’t need to call it.
