| In this article, we discuss the drag and drop facilities |
| provided by JFace and the Eclipse platform UI. After reading |
| this, you will know how to add drag and drop support to your own |
| Eclipse views, and how that support will interact with the |
| standard views in the Eclipse platform. Along the way, we'll |
| also discuss that keyboard relative of drag and drop: cut and |
| paste. You'll learn that putting your own custom objects on the |
| clipboard is easy once you've figured out the basics of drag and |
| drop. |
