/**
    @class wxDropTarget
    @wxheader{dnd.h}

    This class represents a target for a drag and drop operation. A wxDataObject
    can be associated with it and by default, this object will be filled with the
    data from the
    drag source, if the data formats supported by the data object match the drag
    source data
    format.

    There are various virtual handler functions defined in this class which may be
    overridden
    to give visual feedback or react in a more fine-tuned way, e.g. by not
    accepting data on
    the whole window area, but only a small portion of it. The normal sequence of
    calls is
    wxDropTarget::OnEnter, possibly many times wxDropTarget::OnDragOver,
    wxDropTarget::OnDrop and finally wxDropTarget::OnData.
