I have an app that accepts both stringFlavor and javaFileListFlavor objects
dropped onto it. This is working well under Windows and Mac OS X. I just
tried testing under Linux and my drop area isn't recognized there. When I
drag either a string or file object the cursor icon show a circle with a
diagonal bar across it indicating "no".
My code is patterned after the DragFileDemo code on Sun's site. Actually I
just tried running the DragFileDemo program on Linux and it doesn't work
either when the drag source is outside of the app itself. Perhaps D&D just
doesn't work well on Linux?
Anyone have any thoughts why this would be working on Windows and Mac but not
Linux? Any way to get it working?
