| Package | Description |
|---|---|
| java.awt |
Contains all of the classes for creating user
interfaces and for painting graphics and images.
|
| java.awt.dnd |
Drag and Drop is a direct manipulation gesture found in many Graphical
User Interface systems that provides a mechanism to transfer
information between two entities logically associated with presentation
elements in the GUI.
|
| Class | Description |
|---|---|
| DragGestureEvent |
A
DragGestureEvent is passed
to DragGestureListener's
dragGestureRecognized() method
when a particular DragGestureRecognizer detects that a
platform dependent drag initiating gesture has occurred
on the Component that it is tracking. |
| DragGestureListener |
The listener interface for receiving drag gesture events.
|
| DragGestureRecognizer |
The
DragGestureRecognizer is an
abstract base class for the specification
of a platform-dependent listener that can be associated with a particular
Component in order to
identify platform-dependent drag initiating gestures. |
| DragSource |
The
DragSource is the entity responsible
for the initiation of the Drag
and Drop operation, and may be used in a number of scenarios:
1 default instance per JVM for the lifetime of that JVM. |
| DropTarget |
The
DropTarget is associated
with a Component when that Component
wishes
to accept drops during Drag and Drop operations. |
| InvalidDnDOperationException |
This exception is thrown by various methods in the java.awt.dnd package.

| DragGestureEvent |
A
DragGestureEvent is passed
to DragGestureListener's
dragGestureRecognized() method
when a particular DragGestureRecognizer detects that a
platform dependent drag initiating gesture has occurred
on the Component that it is tracking. |
| DragGestureListener |
The listener interface for receiving drag gesture events.
|
| DragGestureRecognizer |
The
DragGestureRecognizer is an
abstract base class for the specification
of a platform-dependent listener that can be associated with a particular
Component in order to
identify platform-dependent drag initiating gestures. |
| DragSource |
The
DragSource is the entity responsible
for the initiation of the Drag
and Drop operation, and may be used in a number of scenarios:
1 default instance per JVM for the lifetime of that JVM. |
| DragSourceContext |
The
DragSourceContext class is responsible for managing the
initiator side of the Drag and Drop protocol. |
| DragSourceDragEvent |
The
DragSourceDragEvent is
delivered from the DragSourceContextPeer,
via the DragSourceContext, to the DragSourceListener
registered with that DragSourceContext and with its associated
DragSource. |
| DragSourceDropEvent |
The
DragSourceDropEvent is delivered
from the DragSourceContextPeer,
via the DragSourceContext, to the dragDropEnd
method of DragSourceListeners registered with that
DragSourceContext and with its associated
DragSource. |
| DragSourceEvent |
This class is the base class for
DragSourceDragEvent and
DragSourceDropEvent. |
| DragSourceListener |
The
DragSourceListener defines the
event interface for originators of
Drag and Drop operations to track the state of the user's gesture, and to
provide appropriate "drag over"
feedback to the user throughout the
Drag and Drop operation. |
| DragSourceMotionListener |
A listener interface for receiving mouse motion events during a drag
operation.
|
| DropTarget |
The
DropTarget is associated
with a Component when that Component
wishes
to accept drops during Drag and Drop operations. |
| DropTarget.DropTargetAutoScroller |
this protected nested class implements autoscrolling
|
| DropTargetContext |
A
DropTargetContext is created
whenever the logical cursor associated
with a Drag and Drop operation coincides with the visible geometry of
a Component associated with a DropTarget. |
| DropTargetDragEvent |
The
DropTargetDragEvent is delivered to a
DropTargetListener via its
dragEnter() and dragOver() methods. |
| DropTargetDropEvent |
The
DropTargetDropEvent is delivered
via the DropTargetListener drop() method. |
| DropTargetEvent |
The
DropTargetEvent is the base
class for both the DropTargetDragEvent
and the DropTargetDropEvent. |
| DropTargetListener |
The
DropTargetListener interface
is the callback interface used by the
DropTarget class to provide
notification of DnD operations that involve
the subject DropTarget. |
| InvalidDnDOperationException |
This exception is thrown by various methods in the java.awt.dnd package.
