This was Xdnd I think. Or am I wrong?
Kirill was describing win32 OLE drag and drop.
[snip]
and it seems that the
mswindows code will follow in my footsteps (as the maintainer told me for file
drops only).
The only documentation on win32 OLE (ie not filemanager) drag and drop
that I can find is written in terms of the MFC C++ classes and their
member functions. I can't find sufficient documentation on the
underlying protocol to implement this in C - I really don't think that
we want to introduce C++ code into XEmacs. I suppose that I could delve
around in the MFC source to find out what's going on, but I don't view
OLE drag and drop as a high priority so I wasn't planning on doing this
for 21.0. If anyone else wants to go ahead and implement OLE drag and
drop on mswindows, that's fine by me.
