I want to retract what I said above. It may have been the Plasma 6 pre-release
that I was running at the time, or something else, but currently with: Plasma
5.27.7, Frameworks 5.109.0, Qt 5.15.10, Eclipse 4.28.0 (2023-06) and gtk
3.24.37 (I'm not 100% sure the GTK version is correct, but this is what
Eclipse's libswt-pi3-gtk-4960r6.so dynamically links to, on my system) - I can
definitely see this problem.
To reiterate:
When running Wayland, copying text from konsole, or from many different KDE
applications (I've tested yakuake, kate, gwenview, dolphin, lokalize and
okular), trying to paste into Eclipse does not work: Eclipse behaves as if
there's nothing in the clipboard.
The problem is that KDE applications, when copying text, offer the clipboard
content with the MIME content types `text/plain` and `text/plain;charset=utf-8`
(and sometimes additional MIME types), while Eclipse will only accept clipboard
content published with the non-MIME types 'STRING', 'UTF8_STRING' and 'TEXT'.
This is not a GTK+ thing - gedit has no problem pasting KDE Wayland clipboard
content, even when running in X11 mode.
When GTK+ apps put text into the clipboard, they set the content types for the
clipboard item with the legacy X11 types as well as the new types - and
everything works great: KDE applications have no problem reading that, as well
as legacy applications. I think this it the change that needs to be done.
Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, KDE applications generally use the Qt
clipboard API and do not use any KDE/Plasma specific API, so any "global" fix
has to be done at the Qt level, IMO.
