I got this at every startup with jdk 1.5.0b56, but
not with jdk 1.4.2_04

Comment 1 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-06-25 12:48:40 UTC 
Demonstrated by failing tests: org.netbeans.core.NbClipboardIsUsed*
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-06-25 15:16:15 UTC 
After 20min looking at the issue I think that the jdk changed its
behaviour to always ask the for the system clipboard. In past it was
enough to just ask once (and fail) and the access to system clipboard
was disabled for ever. Then we just replaced the clipboard in AppContext. 

But this does not work anymore. The simplest solution might be to ask
the JDK team to return back the one and only check. Btw. worked with
1.5 b51.

Forcing usage of our ExClipboard in swing components also on JDK 1.5.
