A LocalSelectionTransfer may be used for drag and drop operations within the same instance of Eclipse. The selection is made available directly for use in the DropTargetListener. dropAccept method. The DropTargetEvent passed to dropAccept does not contain the drop data. The selection may be used for validation purposes so that the drop can be aborted if appropriate. This class is not intended to be subclassed.

Since:: 2.1
Restriction:: This class is not intended to be subclassed by clients.
