Hello all,
I am using GEF 3.5.2 and working with drag / drop connection with LocalSelectionTransfer.
I would like to point out that the class org.eclipse.gef.dnd.TransferDropTargetListener is flagged as deprecated and the javadoc says :
@deprecated use org.eclipse.jface.util.TransferDropTargetListener instead
But this is not true, as using the JFace interface does not work at all. Even if the GEF interface is empty, I suspect that there are still references to the GEF interface in the GEF code because using the JFace interface does not work at all.
Would it be possible to :
* Either make sure that the JFace interface is handled properly in GEF
* Remove the deprecated tag if there is no time to fix this as it is very confusing for implementors that we should still use the deprecated interface.
Should I file a bug for this or is it a known bug (couldn't find it).
Thank you,
Christophe

Use org.eclipse.gef.dnd.AbstractTransferDropTargetListener
