[Snjezana Peco (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-15499?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12926260#comment-12926260 ] 

Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-15499:
---------------------------------------

D&D doesn't need to log any exceptions because some other listener or transfer could do D&D correctly.
See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=352690 that has been opened for the only one reason - EditorAreaDropAdapter unnecessarily  logs an error.

> usecase is that you can have a link to a connector, such as JBDS-IS could be installed by drag'n'drop to jboss tools or jbds.
> Similar to eclipse marketplace for marketplace urls something like:
> * https://devstudio.jboss.com/central/install?connector=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e or 
> * http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/central/install?CID=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e
> would install the two connectors named "com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel" and "org.eclipse.m2e"
> This would allow drag'n'drop install from html docs.
> Consider also supporting this from any clipboard object (eg., dragged from an Acrobat Reader PDF or Microsoft Office doc). Would need to ensure we do lots of platform testing.
