MacOSX Promised files drag&drop howto?

Question

It's not clear to me how to do drag&drop to Finder with dragPromisedFilesOfTypes:fromRect:source:slideBack:event: (NSCollectionView)

I call the above method from mouseDown:, but(NSArray *)namesOfPromisedFilesDroppedAtDestination:(NSURL *)dropDestination isn't called at all.

Any ideas how this should work (MacOSX 10.6, project compiled for 10.5, 64bit)?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Have you already looked at the Drag and Drop Programming Topics? This whole book is on drag & drop, and it has a section specifically on file promises.

Answer 2

I had missed one method implementation: (NSDragOperation)draggingSourceOperationMaskForLocal:(BOOL)isLocal. This solved the issue.
