Hi all,<br />
<br />
Quick Question: Does anyone know of a reference/tutorial that I can use for the following:<br />
<br />
- I want to drag and drop a File/Folder from Windows Explorer into my Java JFC/Swing app.<br />
<br />
Is this even possible using a pure-Java solution? &nbsp;Or does Drag and Drop in Swing always have to be from one Swing app to another?<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Matt

Drag And Drop From Windows To A Swing/JFC App?

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
