Copy/Paste fails on MacOsX in JMeter

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21414435

Question

I am having no luck using the clipboard to copy/paste text between other applications and JMeter or vice-versa. I am able to copy-paste text and test elements within JMeter.

I'm running JMeter 2.11 via the binary distribution by running 'bin/jmeter.sh' on OS X 10.9.1 running Java 1.7.0_45. I have attempted to use the clipboard with System and Mac OS X look-and-feels, per this previous question: Strangely copying and pasting a text in Jmeter is not working for in Mac

I have also attempted, with no luck, this procedure to grant system clipboard permission to AWT: http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/resources/InstructionsCopyPaste/

Any advice on what I can do to get JMeter to share a clipboard with the rest of the system?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Copy-paste behavior on Mac is much improved in JMeter 2.12.

OTHER TIPS

Could you try this example from swing :

This is to see if it's a JDK issue on Mavericks or JMeter one.

UPDATE on 8 september 2014: - Issue has been fixed, could you test Nightly Build

Installing JMeter runtime

Download the _bin and _lib files

Unpack the archives into the same directory structure

The other archives are not needed to run JMeter.

I was facing same issue with JMeter 2.11.

I saw the error below when I attempt to copy paste.

2014-02-01 10:28:08.166 java[80082:2517] * CPerformer: ignoring exception '* -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil' raised during perform of selector '_nativeGetTypes:' on target '' with args '( )'

I stopped X11 (XQuartz) server in order to resolve the issue.

Any time I try and paste copied text into JMeter from the OS I get the same issue. The same issue occurs when trying to paste into another application based on text copied in JMeter.

Copy + Paste is fine within JMeter itself (i.e. copy + paste within the Java application itself works fine).

My environment is OSX 10.9.2, JMeter 2.11 r1554548, java version "1.7.0_55".

This is the error you get every time you try and paste into the app from the system clipboard:

What worked for me on JDK 14 and JMeter 5.4.3 is changing the Look and Feel settings to System.

Options -> Look and Feel -> System
