Re: How to accept drag-drop files from SVN

There are more than one way of doing this.

One is to have a COleDropTarget and register your window with it.

To do this I normally use multiple-inheritance:

class CMyDialog : public CDialog, public COleDropTarget
{
.....
};

And in the OnInitDialog method call register, then you can also handel the
COleDropTarget events in the same class.

This gives you compete control over the drag and drop operation, like
displaying a can't accept icon when wrong type file is dragged over your
window.
(This shows how to do it for a Listbox, the code is almost exactly the same
for a dialogbox)

The other method is to catch WM_DROPFILES in your dialog box, this will only
tell you when something is dropped on your window and you will then be able
to either open it or display a message saying that you couldn't open it.
