Clearing Clipboard Data in Android

android, clipboarddata, clipboardmanager

Solution

Since API 11 ClipboardManager (as old ClipboardManager class is deprecated.)

ClipboardManager clipBoard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(CLIPBOARD_SERVICE);
ClipData data = ClipData.newPlainText("", "");
clipBoard.setPrimaryClip(data);

Problem

I'm trying to clear the Clipboard data in android as follow but its not clearing it. ``` ClipboardManager clipman = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(CLIPBOARD_SERVICE); clipman.setPrimaryClip(null); ``` Any ideas ?
