Besides using the createScreenCapture() method of the java.awt.Robot class, is there any other way of obtaining a screenshot of the entire screen?

    Why don't you want to use the way you mentioned? – Ryan Jun 11 '12 at 21:54

I suppose you might be able to call JNI code to do this, or find / write an external command-line program that grabs the screenshot and that can be run via System.exec. However, I don't think either of these is a good idea ...

The Robot class should do what you want. If it doesn't, you'll get a better outcome if you tell us what the actual problem with it is. The chances are that someone else has encountered it and knows a solution.
