Hi,
I am writing a clipboard monitor for windows in python. my code looks
something like this.
class MyWindow:
def __init__(self):
message_map = {
win32con.WM_DESTROY: self.OnDestroy,
win32con.WM_DRAWCLIPBOARD: self.OnDrawClipboard,
win32con.WM_CHANGECBCHAIN: self.OnChangeCBChain,
}
# Register thw window class.
wc = WNDCLASS()
self.hinst = wc.hInstance = GetModuleHandle(None)
. . .
self.classAtom = RegisterClass(wc)
style = win32con.WS_OVERLAPPED | win32con.WS_SYSMENU
style,0, 0, 150, 100,0, 0, self.hinst, None)
self.hwnd = CreateWindow( self.classAtom, "Clipboard Monitor",
style,900, 50, 350, 200,0, 0, self.hinst, None)
ShowWindow(self.hwnd,1)
self.nextWnd = win32clipboard.SetClipboardViewer()
def OnDestroy(self, hwnd, msg, wparam, lparam):
win32clipboard.ChangeClipboardChain(self.hwnd, self.nextWnd)
DestroyWindow(self.hwnd)
UnregisterClass(self.classAtom,GetModuleHandle
(None))
PostQuitMessage(0) # Terminate the app.
def OnChangeCBChain(self, hwnd, msg, wparam, lparam):
SendMessage(self.nextWnd, msg, wparam, lparam)
def OnDrawClipboard(self, hwnd, msg, wparam, lparam):
SendMessage(self.nextWnd, msg, wparam, lparam)
def main():
w = MyWindow()
PumpMessages()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
when i execute this program, i get the followinf error message.
File "C:\Program Files\karthik\Source files\test2.py", line 30, in __init__
self.nextWnd = win32clipboard.SetClipboardViewer()
TypeError: SetClipboardViewer() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)
Could anyone please tell me as to what i am doing wrong here?
Thanks
Karthik
