Copy image to clipboard that is contained in file

T

Terri I.

I need to copy an image to the system clipboard. I have found several
examples of how to do this. However, all the examples are complete Java
solutions, where the image to be copied is a Java image object. I am trying
to utilize Java to provide a copy function to an existing ColdFusion
application that displays images. I can pass the name of the file containing
the image into my Java method. But once I've passed in the filename, how do I
go about 'converting' it to a Transferable object that can then be copied to
the clipboard. The file is on the same server as the application code so there
should be no security issues. Seems like this should be doable fairly easily,
but I'm new to Java and not sure how to start... Thanks for any help!
