  - ### ClipboardContent

    public ClipboardContent()
    Creates a `ClipboardContent`.

- ## Method Details

  - ### hasString

    public final boolean hasString()
    Gets whether a plain text String (`DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT`) has been put to this `ClipboardContent`.
    Returns:
      true if `containsKey(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT)` returns true, false otherwise

  - ### putString

    public final boolean putString(String s)
    Puts a plain text String into the `ClipboardContent`. This is equivalent to invoking `put(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT, s)`. Setting this value to null effectively clears it from the `ClipboardContent`.
    Parameters:
      `s` - The string to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the string is always successfully put)

  - ### getString

    public final String getString()
    Gets the plain text String from the `ClipboardContent` which had previously been put. This is equivalent to invoking `get(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT)`. If no such entry exists, null is returned.
    Returns:
      The String in the `ClipboardContent` associated with `DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT`, or null if there is not one.

  - ### hasUrl

    public final boolean hasUrl()
    Gets whether a URL String (`DataFormat.URL`) has been put to this `ClipboardContent`.
    Returns:
      true if `containsKey(DataFormat.URL)` returns true, false otherwise

  - ### putUrl

    public final boolean putUrl(String url)
    Puts a URL String into the `ClipboardContent`. This is equivalent to invoking `put(DataFormat.URL, url)`. Setting this value to null effectively clears it from the `ClipboardContent`.
    Parameters:
      `url` - The string to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the URL is always successfully put)

  - ### getUrl

    public final String getUrl()
    Gets the URL String from the `ClipboardContent` which had previously been put. This is equivalent to invoking `get(DataFormat.URL)`. If no such entry exists, null is returned.
    Returns:
      The String in the `ClipboardContent` associated with `DataFormat.URL`, or null if there is not one.

  - ### hasHtml

    public final boolean hasHtml()
    Gets whether an HTML String (`DataFormat.HTML`) has been put to this `ClipboardContent`.
    Returns:
      true if `containsKey(DataFormat.HTML)` returns true, false otherwise

  - ### putHtml

    public final boolean putHtml(String html)
    Puts an HTML String into the `ClipboardContent`. This is equivalent to invoking `put(DataFormat.HTML, html)`. Setting this value to null effectively clears it from the `ClipboardContent`.
    Parameters:
      `html` - The string to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the HTML is always successfully put)

  - ### getHtml

    public final String getHtml()
    Gets the HTML String from the `ClipboardContent` which had previously been put. This is equivalent to invoking `get(DataFormat.HTML)`. If no such entry exists, null is returned.
    Returns:
      The String in the `ClipboardContent` associated with `DataFormat.HTML`, or null if there is not one.

  - ### hasRtf

    public final boolean hasRtf()
    Gets whether a RTF String (`DataFormat.RTF`) has been put to this `ClipboardContent`.
    Returns:
      true if `containsKey(DataFormat.RTF)` returns true, false otherwise

  - ### putRtf

    public final boolean putRtf(String rtf)
    Puts a RTF String into the `ClipboardContent`. This is equivalent to invoking `put(DataFormat.RTF, rtf)`. Setting this value to null effectively clears it from the `ClipboardContent`.
    Parameters:
      `rtf` - The string to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the RTF is always successfully put)

  - ### getRtf

    public final String getRtf()
    Gets the RTF String from the `ClipboardContent` which had previously been put. This is equivalent to invoking `get(DataFormat.RTF)`. If no such entry exists, null is returned.
    Returns:
      The String in the `ClipboardContent` associated with `DataFormat.RTF`, or null if there is not one.

  - ### hasImage

      true if `containsKey(DataFormat.IMAGE)` returns true, false otherwise

  - ### putImage

    public final boolean putImage(Image i)
    Puts an Image into the `ClipboardContent`. This is equivalent to invoking `put(DataFormat.IMAGE, i)`. Setting this value to null effectively clears it from the `ClipboardContent`. When an image is placed on the clipboard in this manner, an operating system dependent image is loaded onto the clipboard (such as TIFF on Mac or DIB on Windows).
    Parameters:
      `i` - The image to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the image is always successfully put)

    Returns:
      true if `containsKey(DataFormat.FILES)` returns true, false otherwise

  - ### putFiles

    public final boolean putFiles(List<File> files)
    Puts a List of Files into the `ClipboardContent`. This is equivalent to invoking `put(DataFormat.FILES, files)`. Setting this value to null effectively clears it from the `ClipboardContent`.
    Parameters:
      `files` - The files to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the files are always successfully put)

  - ### putFilesByPath

    public final boolean putFilesByPath(List<String> filePaths)
    Puts a List of Files into the `ClipboardContent`, based on the file path. This is simply a convenience method which constructs a List of Files and invokes the `putFiles(java.util.List<java.io.File>)` method.
    Parameters:
      `filePaths` - The files to place. This may be null.
    Returns:
      always true (the files are always successfully put)

  - ### getFiles

    public final List<File> getFiles()
    Gets the List of Files from the `ClipboardContent` which had previously been put. This is equivalent to invoking `get(DataFormat.FILES)`. If no such entry exists, null is returned.
