280063 - 3 bugs in nsDragService for OS/2

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Widget: OS/2, defect)

Description

[Rich Walsh]

This patch is intended for the trunk and all active branches, including Moz
1.7x.  All use the same code and exhibit the same problems.

1- Dragging a URL from one mozilla app to another fails.  The source incorrectly
renders the content of the URL rather than its text.  The code now ensures that
the Ctrl key is down before rendering content.

2- The illegal pointer seldom appears when dragging over undroppable area.  The
code now initializes canDrop to FALSE rather than TRUE.

3- Native drags cause exceptions in JavaScript code because the transferable
contains flavors but no data.  Now, the native drag code provides data when it
is easily accessible (i.e. file URLs and short text segments).  This patch is
the OS/2 component of a fix for Bug #260068 which prevents dropping .xpi and
.jar files into the the Extension and Theme Managers.  The XP component, a patch
to extensions.js, will be filed separately.
