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.
The drop site is associated with the previous dragEnter()
invocation if the latest invocation of dragEnter()
on this
listener:
- corresponds to that drop site and
- is not followed by a
dragExit()
invocation on this listener.
Since: 1.2

This method is invoked to signify that the Drag and Drop
operation is complete. The getDropSuccess() method of
the DragSourceDropEvent
can be used to
determine the termination state. The getDropAction() method
returns the operation that the drop site selected
to apply to the Drop operation. Once this method is complete, the
current DragSourceContext
and
associated resources become invalid.
