*
* <code>DragSource</code> defines the source object for a drag and drop transfer.
*
* <p>IMPORTANT: This class is <em>not</em> intended to be subclassed.</p>
*
* <p>A drag source is the object which originates a drag and drop operation. For the specified widget,
* it defines the type of data that is available for dragging and the set of operations that can
* be performed on that data. The operations can be any bit-wise combination of DND.MOVE, DND.COPY or
* DND.LINK. The type of data that can be transferred is specified by subclasses of Transfer such as
* TextTransfer or FileTransfer. The type of data transferred can be a predefined system type or it
* can be a type defined by the application. For instructions on how to define your own transfer type,
* refer to <code>ByteArrayTransfer</code>.</p>
*
* <p>You may have several DragSources in an application but you can only have one DragSource
* per Control. Data dragged from this DragSource can be dropped on a site within this application
* or it can be dropped on another application such as an external Text editor.</p>
*
* <p>The application supplies the content of the data being transferred by implementing the
* <code>DragSourceListener</code> and associating it with the DragSource via DragSource#addDragListener.</p>
*
* <p>When a successful move operation occurs, the application is required to take the appropriate
* action to remove the data from its display and remove any associated operating system resources or
* internal references. Typically in a move operation, the drop target makes a copy of the data
* and the drag source deletes the original. However, sometimes copying the data can take a long
* time (such as copying a large file). Therefore, on some platforms, the drop target may actually
* move the data in the operating system rather than make a copy. This is usually only done in
* file transfers. In this case, the drag source is informed in the DragEnd event that a
* DROP_TARGET_MOVE was performed. It is the responsibility of the drag source at this point to clean
* up its displayed information. No action needs to be taken on the operating system resources.</p>
*
* <p> The following example shows a Label widget that allows text to be dragged from it.</p>
*
* <code><pre>
* // Enable a label as a Drag Source
* Label label = new Label(shell, SWT.NONE);
* // This example will allow text to be dragged
* Transfer[] types = new Transfer[] {TextTransfer.getInstance()};
* // This example will allow the text to be copied or moved to the drop target
* int operations = DND.DROP_MOVE | DND.DROP_COPY;
*
* DragSource source = new DragSource(label, operations);
* source.setTransfer(types);
* source.addDragListener(new DragSourceListener() {
* public void dragStart(DragSourceEvent e) {
* // Only start the drag if there is actually text in the
* // label - this text will be what is dropped on the target.
* if (label.getText().length() == 0) {
* event.doit = false;
* }
* };
* public void dragSetData(DragSourceEvent event) {
* // A drop has been performed, so provide the data of the
* // requested type.
* // (Checking the type of the requested data is only
* // necessary if the drag source supports more than
* // one data type but is shown here as an example).
* if (TextTransfer.getInstance().isSupportedType(event.dataType)){
* event.data = label.getText();
* }
* }
* public void dragFinished(DragSourceEvent event) {
* // A Move operation has been performed so remove the data
* // from the source
* if (event.detail == DND.DROP_MOVE)
* label.setText("");
* }
* });
* </pre></code>
