Anyone have any idea of things I have to think about if I want to try to
implement a drag-n-drop feature? I have already found the correct set of
functions and messages in the Win32 Reference.
Ok, so I managed to tell a window to accept files dragged from the Explorer
with the DragAcceptFiles() function (from the shell32.dll).
When I drag the mouse over the window, the mouse pointer changes. When I
drop, the window is sent a WM_DROPFILES event.
My problem now is how I should capture this event.
Naive first try: timer which triggers really often. In the event handler I
call
$myWindow->PeekMessage(WM_DROPFILES, WM_DROPFILES)
and if it returns true, I call
$myWindow->GetMessage(WM_DROPFILES, WM_DROPFILES)
That works like one in ten times or something. Clearly not the way to go.
So, any better way of detecting the WM_DROPFILES event?
