cross platform clipboard support?

[Laurent]

QtCore is not that big. It's a single dependency, and its size is not huge.

[Silvah]

Surely you must be talking about totally different QtCore than Nexus does.

QtCore does not appear to contain QClipboard, however. Probably because the clipboard is bound to the windowing system on most systems; and QtCore is for things not dealing with the GUI.

Hey,
is now a clipboard class or something like that planed? I tried to code my own and to do it on WIndows is easy, but Linux and MacOS....    Also I don´t want to include a extra lib like QT, GTK+, vxxWidget....

No.

don't bother with Laurent he's just lazy. Implementing the clipboard would take less time than arguing in this thread like he did. SDL has it (and is also a "simple multimedia library") so i suggest you just switch to SDL

Yeah, lazy as hell. I mean, just look at his contributions to SFML: https://github.com/SFML/SFML/graphs/contributors, he has literally done nothing, right?

Btw after you are done with pointing out laurent's laziness, you may want to check out this PR: https://github.com/SFML/SFML/pull/1221.

Just consider the fact that this is a 2012 thread. It is not relevant anymore.
