Free open source library for screen capture in java

Question

I am working on a screen capture tool. My current requirement is to capture a screenshot of the current screen, which can be expanded to display a screen (video), etc. Therefore, I just want to know which of the best (open source / free) java framework / library meets my requirements.

Answer 1

I'm not sure if you need the infrastructure.

Check the documentation for the java.awt.Robot class, in particular the createScreenCapture method.
