JTree multiselect Drag and Drop

[advait75]

Hi,

I have a Panel with a JTree. I need to be able to do the following -
1. Multiselect nodes or leaves. However these nodes / leaves must be of the same type only.
2. User should be allowed to drag and drop all selected nodes / leaves. Through certain rules, I will control where these nodes / leaves can be dropped.

Thanks and regards,
Advait Pandit

Good luck.

I think what Dian meant was that as a rule, we don't write code for people that just state their requirements and expect a code solution.

Perhaps you could try google for some tutorials on DnD data transfer, then perhaps come back with a more specific problem ?

Maybe I didn't state what I needed clearly. I just want to know if someone can point me to a tutorial or something. I don't expect anyone to write code for me.
I looked on Google but couldnt find a solution to multiselect DnD.

At no point in your post did you state you wanted tutorial links !

Anyway, google for "drag drop jtree" and "multi select jtree" - then combine your knowledge to produce your desired results. There are LOADS of examples of DnD out there, like :
