Clipboard Formats

[mikhail cherkasov]

Hello All,

I found why the flavor list is different, as I see 
DataTransferer.standardEncodings() produce different results for jdk6 
and jdk7.
Furthermore, all Mac* charsets and support classes( converters) were 
exclude form jdk7, however they present in jdk6.

So have you any idea why this was done? is it possible to get them back?

Also where can I get DataTransferer.standardEncodings() method sources?
Because I still don't know why DataTransferer.standardEncodings() result 
depends on how it was launched.

Thanks,
Mikhail.
