Re: [Wrapper-user] can not listen flavorsChanged event in service

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Haipeng,
In the future a lot more information would be helpful.   I do not have
a much experience
with Swing, but I think I figured out what you are doing.   I assume
you are referring to
the FlaforListener.flavorsChanged class.  Registered with the
Clipboard.addFlavorListener
method.

As I understand it from the javadocs, it looks like this method should
be getting fired
whenever the contents of the system Clipboard changes.  The problem
here is likely
because the Wrapper(JVM) and your desktop application are running as different
users.

By default Windows services run as the SYSTEM user.   It would not
surprise me if
the SYSTEM user does not have access to the clipboard of the user
currently logged
in.   I would suggest doing some investigation along these lines then
please post back
if you find anything out one way or the other.

Does your Java service set the wrapper.ntservice.interactive=TRUE
property?  If not
you might want to try that.

Another option if you not need your application to be interactive
would be to run the
service as the same user as you are logged in as.   It is not possible
to specify
a user if your service is interactive however.
