Uses of Package
java.awt.dnd

Packages that use java.awt.dnd
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. 
 

Classes in java.awt.dnd used by java.awt
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
          This interface is sourced from a DragGestureRecognizer and is invoked when an object of that (sub)class detects a drag initiating gesture.
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.

          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.
