[news.eclipse.tools.jdt] Re: Drag and drop (DnD) onto CompilationUnitEdi

["Neeraj Mahajan" <neeraj_mahajan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for this reply.

I need to find a workaround for this, guess I dont have the luxury of time
for JDT to implement it. Can this functionality be implemented by extending
CompilationUnitEditor (Java editor) in my plugin and add the drop
functionality to it? Can you provide some poniters as to how this can be
done.

Thanks,
~ Neeraj.
