Does anyone have a simple example how to implement a DropAdapter for dropping objects from within Eclipse to the outside world (e.g. windows filesystem)?

Usecase:
I have a TreeViewer and i want to enable drag and drop to e.g. the windows explorer (and create there e.g. a shortcut to this item).

Thanks!

See
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.exa mples/src/org/eclipse/swt/examples/dnd/DNDExample.java?view= markup .
When you run it change the source's transfer type to File Transfer, select a
file(s), then drag the source label somewhere.
