| 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 and 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.
