Accessing clipboard is nothing very new in HTML 5. Gone are the days to print the screen of your computer, save it and upload it t server via File Up-loader. We , instead, experience the richness of the web by simply pasting our content on the web page itself. A very good example of the same may be experienced when you paste a screen shot on Github web itself .
This project encourages developers to have such facility in the simple Java web application they develop. It's assumed that these developers are not using JSF Vaadin or ZK- any RIA framework already providing a component for uploading your clipboard content .
This API is for those who use vanilla Servlet /JSP with some client side framework like Angular JS and Bootstrap , for example.
The target beneficiary of this project are those who restrict server side to Vanilla Servlet /JSP and might come across such need often.For them, this API is good with regard to simplicity and over-head.
Plus, YOU NEED NOT CODE at all.
