virtual CoreExport HRESULT DragEnter ( HWND  window,
IDataObject *  pDataObject,
DWORD  grfKeyState,
POINTL  pt,
DWORD *  pdwEffect 
)
virtual

Gets low level control over drag and drop operations.

Override this method in your DragAndDropHandler subclass to get low-level control over drag and drop operations. This is just a redirect of the identical method called on the OLE IDropTarget interface, see MSDN docs for details.

The default implementation for this methods use the DropClipFormat and DropType classes to recognize and parse the incoming IDataObject into a DropType instance and hand this to the associated high-level drag and drop handler methods desribed next.

As an example, here is the default DragEnter() implementation which does the initial parsing on entry to a window:

HRESULT DragAndDropHandler::DragEnter(HWND hWnd, IDataObject* pDataObject, DWORD grfKeyState, POINTL pt, DWORD* pdwEffect)
{
// look for one of our accepted clip formats
if (cf != NULL)
{
// have one, get it to parse it into a DropType subclass
current_droptype = cf->ParseDataObject(pDataObject);
{
// got recognizable drop data,
// pass on to high-level method
if(pdwEffect)
*pdwEffect = DROPEFFECT_LINK|DROPEFFECT_COPY;
POINT p = { pt.x, pt.y };
DragEnter(hWnd, current_droptype, grfKeyState, p, pdwEffect);
return S_OK;
}
}
// nothing for us
if(pdwEffect)
*pdwEffect = DROPEFFECT_NONE;
return S_OK;
}
Parameters
window- The specified handle to the window in which the drag and drop event is occuring. This is one of the windows that was enabled via a IDragAndDropMgr::EnabledDnD() call, so it may be the parent of the lowest-level window that the mouse is actually over.
pDataObject- The incoming IDataObject.
grfKeyState- The specified current state of the keyboard modifier keys on the keyboard. Valid values can be a combination of any of the flags MK_CONTROL, MK_SHIFT, MK_ALT, MK_BUTTON, MK_LBUTTON, MK_MBUTTON, and MK_RBUTTON.
pt- The specified current cursor coordinates in the coordinate space of the drop-target window.
pdwEffect- On entry, pointer to the value of the pdwEffect parameter of the DoDragDrop function. On return, must contain one of the effect flags from the Win32 DROPEFFECT enumeration, which indicates what the result of the drop operation would be.
Returns
Standard return values of E_OUTOFMEMORY, E_INVALIDARG, F_UNEXPECTED, and E_FAIL, S_OK.

{
// This could take a while, set wait cursor
HCURSOR hOldCursor = SetCursor(LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_WAIT));
HRESULT result = S_OK;
// load the dropped data if needed
if (type->Load()) {
// see if dropped on a viewport, if so adjust point
// to be vp-relative
HWND vpwin = FindDropViewport(hwnd, pt);
// Handle the drop depending on drop type
BOOL bRet;
switch (type->TypeCode()) {
bRet = HandleDroppedGeom(
hwnd, vpwin, pt,
break;
bRet = HandleDroppedBitmap(
hwnd, vpwin, pt,
break;
case DROPSCRIPTEFILE_DROPTYPE:
bRet = HandleDroppedDropScript(

inlinevirtual
Remarks
This method is called when the drag and drop manager starts managing a window for this handler. managing drag and drop events for a particular window for this handler.

Default Implementation:
{ }
522 { };

inlinevirtual

This method is called called during a when the drag and drop manager stops managing drag and drop events for a particular window for this handler.

By default, the drag and drop manager will call this method on all registered DragAndDropHandler's during a NOTIFY_SYSTEM_SHUTDOWN broadcast. You should provide an implementation if you need to keep track of extant uses of the handler (say, by ref-counting) or to do handler-specific cleanup.
