Drag and drop of a group of files into a tree |
|
|
This Java Swing tip illustrates a method of implementing functionality
of drag & drop of a group of files into a tree. The tip uses
getdatatransfer function that returns an object that represents the
data to be transferred. The class of the object returned is defined
by the representation class of the data flavor.
