DragSourceListener.dragSetData() is never called [message #648695]

Hi,

I've dragsource from a tableviewer and droptarget on a composite of multipageeditor part.
In this case, I'm using only text transfers whose values i'm trying to
set to event.data in dragsourcelistener.dragsetdata()
Based on this text value i'm executing a command.

But while debugging i found that DragSourceListener.dragSetData() is never called and hence the event data is not set. So my commands are not getting executed.
I tried setting the data in dragStart() method also, but it didn't
help.

Does anyone know why this happens and how to get it done?

Regards.

Hi,

As per my understanding now, the dragSetData() is called only when the droptarget requests for data.
So I created a default command which does nothing except triggering the dragsetdata() to set my event data and then accordingly i excecute required commands.
It worked Smile

Thanks!
