Concat a string to clipboard in android

Question

What i want is when user copies data from my application a string get added with the copied data.Or there is another way to do that.

I tried this:

ClipboardManager.OnPrimaryClipChangedListener mPrimaryChangeListener = new ClipboardManager.OnPrimaryClipChangedListener() {
    public void onPrimaryClipChanged() {

        ClipboardManager clipBoard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
        String cb = (String) clipBoard.getText();
        String tex = "hi i am here";
        String con = cb.concat(tex);
        clipBoard.setText(con);

        clipBoard.addPrimaryClipChangedListener(mPrimaryChangeListener);

    }
};

I put this code in oncreate.But it is not working I am new in android world.How to implement this.

Answer 1

ClipboardManager myClipBoard ;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{                   
    myClipBoard = (ClipboardManager) Clipboard.this.getSystemService(android.content.Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
    myClipBoard.addPrimaryClipChangedListener(mPrimaryClipChangedListener);

}

ClipboardManager.OnPrimaryClipChangedListener mPrimaryClipChangedListener = new ClipboardManager.OnPrimaryClipChangedListener() {
        public void onPrimaryClipChanged() {                
            ClipData clipData = myClipBoard.getPrimaryClip();

             ClipData.Item item = clipData.getItemAt(0);                                                 
             String tex = ", hi i am here";
             String con = item.getText().toString().concat(tex);

             myClipBoard.removePrimaryClipChangedListener(mPrimaryClipChangedListener);
             myClipBoard.setText(con);
             myClipBoard.addPrimaryClipChangedListener(mPrimaryClipChangedListener);

        }
};
