Hi again,
First of all, there was a little mistake in my posted code:
> xevt.xselectionrequest.requestor, wanted_atoms[i], requested, 32,
> PropModeReplace, (unsigned char *) "TEST", 4);
Should have been
xevt.xselectionrequest.requestor, wanted_atoms[i], requested, 8,
PropModeReplace, (unsigned char *) "TEST", 4);
Note that 32 has been replaced by 8, otherwise you can't sore more than
4 characters on the clipboard.
Second, I tested my implementation with Xubuntu (Xfce) and openSUSE
(KDE). I found that Xubuntu doesn't seem to have a clipboard manager at
all, if I try to paste copied code after the termination of an
application it doesn't work. So, no Xfce availability, at least for
Xubuntu. openSUSE *has* a clipboard manager, the paste-after-termination
thing worked quite well there. Unfortunately, my code did not. The error
message "No clipboard manager available" got triggered, for whatever
reason. Does the clipboard manager of KDE work that different?
Btw. I'm testing with VirtualBox.
