windows - Python win32clipboard recursive call not working as expected (but actually better) -


i made code

import win32clipboard cb # used windows clipboard content  def gettext():     errormsg = '''no text has been copied clipboard.     copy text clipboard , press enter:'''      # text in clipboard     cb.openclipboard()     text = cb.getclipboarddata()     cb.closeclipboard()      if text == errormsg:         raw_input(errormsg)                 text = gettext() # recursive call      cb.openclipboard()     cb.setclipboardtext(errormsg)     cb.closeclipboard()     return text 

if copy "hello world" clipboard , call gettext() twice get:

>>> print gettext() hello world >>> print gettext() no text has been copied clipboard. copy text clipboard , press ok: [copied "hello" , pressed enter] hello 

now if try ctrl-v (paste) text editor "hello" - amazing, not expected. expected have errormsg in clipboard. keeping "hello" in clipboard , call gettext() again still prompts user copy content clipboard.

i don't want change behavior of code, understand it

note code you've given won't run is. believe line:

if ocrtext == errormsg: 

should be:

if text == errormsg: 

additionally when write clipboard should this:

cb.openclipboard() cb.emptyclipboard() cb.setclipboardtext(errormsg) cb.closeclipboard() 

i.e., need call emptyclipboard before setting clipboard data. when make these changes, appears working described, error message in clipboard.
