build R2.1 The fixes to EditorAreaDropAdapter described in bug 37596 should be released in 2_1_maintenance to address a data loss scenario on Solaris when dragging files to the editor without holding the copy modifier key. See bug 34648.
Created attachment 4887 [details] fix
Approved to fix for 2.1.1.
Reviewed code change and tested on win2k.
Released fix in 2_1_maintenance. Reporter of bug 34648 already verified that replacing dragOver handling with dragEnter fixes the data loss problem. Should verify that changing drag operation works as well on Solaris if not already done (Veronika?).
If this is the same patch that you had earlier made available for the Solaris DnD bug, then Jeff Halhead verified that it fixed the loss of data problem.
The fix I released in 2_1_maintenance does slightly more in that it handles dragOperationChanged. This should actually be the correct fix (and what I sent to Jeff was "mostly correct") but I'd like to be sure.
