Description Michael D. Elder CLA 2005-11-13 14:56:36 EST 
ResourceTransfer was removed to support RCP clients. For IDE clients, the
ResourceTransfer type should be available.

This is likely to be address in M5 with the enhancements to the DND framework.
Comment 1 Nick Edgar CLA 2005-11-15 11:55:47 EST 
ResourceTransfer exists as API in org.eclipse.ui.ide.
If it does not suffice for CN's needs, I suggest we improve it rather than
providing a copy in CN.
Comment 2 Michael D. Elder CLA 2006-02-23 13:58:25 EST 
This defect was to ensure that ResourceTransfer was a supported type. It cannot be supported in the core layer, so it is introduced in the resources extension (org.eclipse.ui.navigator.resources). 

ResourceTransfer (as well as FileTransfer) support has been contributed as part of the current DND API.
