- This overview discusses data transfer through clipboard or drag and drop.
- In wxWidgets, these two ways to transfer data (either between different
- applications or inside one and the same) are very similar which allows to
- implement both of them using almost the same code - or, in other
- words, if you implement drag and drop support for your application, you get
- clipboard support for free and vice versa.

- At the heart of both clipboard and drag and drop operations lies the
- wxDataObject class. The objects of this class (or, to
- be precise, classes derived from it) represent the data which is being carried
- by the mouse during drag and drop operation or copied to or pasted from the
- clipboard. wxDataObject is a "smart" piece of data because it knows which
- formats it supports (see GetFormatCount and GetAllFormats) and knows how to
- render itself in any of them (see GetDataHere). It can also receive its value
- from the outside in a format it supports if it implements the SetData method.
- Please see the documentation of this class for more details.

- Both clipboard and drag and drop operations have two sides: the source and
- target, the data provider and the data receiver. These which may be in the same
- application and even the same window when, for example, you drag some text from
- one position to another in a word processor. Let us describe what each of them
- should do.

- The data provider is responsible for creating a wxDataObject containing the 
- data to be transferred. Then it should either pass it to the clipboard using
- wxClipboard::SetData function or to wxDropSource and call wxDropSource::DoDragDrop
- function.

- The only (but important) difference is that the object for the clipboard
- transfer must always be created on the heap (i.e. using @c new) and it will
- be freed by the clipboard when it is no longer needed (indeed, it is not known
- in advance when, if ever, the data will be pasted from the clipboard). On the
- other hand, the object for drag and drop operation must only exist while
- wxDropSource::DoDragDrop executes and may be safely deleted afterwards and so
- can be created either on heap or on stack (i.e. as a local variable).

- Another small difference is that in the case of clipboard operation, the
- application usually knows in advance whether it copies or cuts (i.e. copies and
- deletes) data - in fact, this usually depends on which menu item the user
- chose. But for drag and drop it can only know it after
- wxDropSource::DoDragDrop returns (from its return value).

- To receive (paste in usual terminology) data from the clipboard, you should
- create a wxDataObject derived class which supports the data formats you need 
- and pass it as argument to wxClipboard::GetData. If it returns @false,
- no data in (any of) the supported format(s) is available. If it returns @true,
- the data has been successfully transferred to wxDataObject.

- For drag and drop case, the wxDropTarget::OnData virtual function will be called 
- when a data object is dropped, from which the data itself may be requested by calling
- wxDropTarget::GetData method which fills the data object.
