Package dsto.dfc.swing.dnd Description

Extensions to the AWT Drag and Drop/Copy and Paste packages.

Drag and drop support

The dsto.dfc.dnd.DragComponent and dsto.dfc.dnd.DropComponent interfaces make it easier to add drag/drop support to a component. For components that support these interfaces, drag and drop support can be added by creating a dsto.dfc.dnd.DragSourceAdapter or dsto.dfc.dnd.DropTargetAdapter to manage drag and drop.

Dynamic change notification support

Limited support for change notification to a clipboard is supported via the dsto.dfc.dnd.ClipboardManager class in concert with the dsto.dfc.dnd.CmdCopy and dsto.dfc.dnd.CmdCut classes.
