Drag & drop not working on Mac

Question

I\'m trying to make it possible to drag files from the Finder into my SWT application. On Windows and Ubuntu, the following bit of code works:

public class DndTe         


        

Answer 1

Since you've got the line

dt.addDropListener(new DropTargetAdapter() {

it could possibly mean the existence of a bug for developing Java SWT applications on Mac OS X (maybe fixed in a later released version possibly?)

do check out the related stackoverflow question phrased another way @ here

and it might be exactly your problem already submitted as a bug feature request.

Answer 2

This was a bug in SWT (issue #267381 is related, but might not be the actual issue).

As Mike L. pointed out in a comment, it was fixed in SWT 3.7M4.
