Linux SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=svp and the clipboard

[Miklos Vajna]

Hi Stephan,

My understanding is that in when svp is active and
comphelper::LibreOfficeKit::isActive() returns true, then the
expectation is that each view has its own clipboard. A "view" is the
Window -> New Window menu item. The LOK case wants this, as such a view
actually ends up in the web browser of different users. This is the same
as the "tiled rendering" case, these tests always set the LOK mode to
true.

When comphelper::LibreOfficeKit::isActive() return false, then then
expectation is that this is a desktop session where both views belong to
the same user, so a shared clipboard makes sense. The UITests probably
want to mimic the desktop case, so they would be in this category.
(Actually, any kind of test which is not a tiled rendering test.)

Does that help?

Regards,

Miklos
