ClipBoardManager Android ... NoClassdefFoundException

Question

I am developing an Android application and copying text (from the listView element) to the clipboard to paste it into editText.

So the copy function looks like this:

 ClipboardManager clipboard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
 clipboard.setText("String to copy");

However, the exception is thrown on the first line:

04-12 15:08:59.101:
E/AndroidRuntime(25406): java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: android.content.ClipboardManager

I searched for it, but I did not find working answers.

thanks for answers

Check out the ClipboardManager package.

One of the packages is android.text, and the other is from the package android.content.

android.content.ClipboardManager is only available at API level 11 and above. I assume the cause of this error.

So you use your code on old phones, you should use android.text.ClipboardManager
