A COleDropSource object allows data to be dragged to a drop target. The COleDropTarget class handles the receiving portion of the drag-and-drop operation. The COleDropSource object is responsible for determining when a drag operation begins, providing feedback during the drag operation, and determining when the drag operation ends.
To use a COleDropSource object, just call the constructor. This simplifies the process of determining what events, such as a mouse click, begin a drag operation using COleDataSource::DoDragDrop, COleClientItem::DoDragDrop, or COleServerItem::DoDragDrop function. These functions will create a COleDropSource object for you. You might want to modify the default behavior of the COleDropSource overridable functions. These member functions will be called at the appropriate times by the framework.
