How to Copy Text to Clip Board in Android?
Here the method to copy text to clipboard:
private void setClipboard(Context context, String text) {
if(android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB) {
android.text.ClipboardManager clipboard = (android.text.ClipboardManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
clipboard.setText(text);
} else {
android.content.ClipboardManager clipboard = (android.content.ClipboardManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
android.content.ClipData clip = android.content.ClipData.newPlainText("Copied Text", text);
clipboard.setPrimaryClip(clip);
}
}
This method is working on all android devices.
use ClipboardManager
ClipboardManager clipboard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
ClipData clip = ClipData.newPlainText(label, text);
clipboard.setPrimaryClip(clip);
make sure you have imported android.content.ClipboardManager
and NOT android.text.ClipboardManager
. Latter is deprecated.
