java - How to drag from browser area and deposit to the explorer area? -


Some time ago I was encountering this problem in another way: how to item (folder / file) from an explorer window Drag (this is Windows Explorer, Linux, Nautilus etc) in the browser window - it is that the drag starts in an application and ends in the browser. Since there was a control over my browser, I used to stop dragend events: which gives me an interest.

Now, I want to do this from the browser in the File Explorer application: when you drag an image from Firefox and drop it into a folder.

My main problem is that when I exit the drag event browser window I can see, I have no idea how to drag the place where drag event

My Idea signed a Java applet is to be prepared and somehow to track the mouse movement on the desktop - but it seems more and more.

Any sign on this?

According to your justification it is not easy, but it can be managed. There is a class called Dataflower, you had to use the D & D mechanism to present in Java using movable objects and to provide the correct mime-type and the same conversion. The problem is that mime-type will be accepted by explorer. I hope this help
