Want to know Windows Clipboard Internals?

I have some good resources on my site: clipboardextender.com It talks about clipboard viewer implementation, typical mistakes, do's and dont's.

I have some good resources on my site: clipboardextender.com It talks about clipboard viewer implementation, typical mistakes, do's and dont's. Basically the clipboard is a shared memory area that you copy data into (aka. "copy", such as in response to the user pressing Ctrl+C) and copy data from (aka "paste").

The data can be simultaneously represented in dozens of common formats, and any number of programmer-defined formats. It is impossible to completely "backup" the clipboard and restore it like it was, without impacting other programs, and causing a negative user experience. Look into "delayed rendering" to see why, and consider what would happen when an Excel user copies 5000 rows x 255 columns in a spreadsheet, and presses Ctrl+V.

Understand that, and you'll understand the magic (and pitfalls) of delayed rendering.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
