## Detailed Description

The QTextDrag provides a drag-and-drop object for transferring plain text.

Plain text is defined as single- or multi-line US-ASCII or an unspecified 8-bit character set.

Qt provides no built-in mechanism for delivering only single-line or only US-ASCII text.

Drag&Drop text does not have a NUL terminator when it is dropped onto the target.

For detailed information about drag-and-drop, see the QDragObject class.

## Member Function Documentation

### QTextDrag::QTextDrag ( QWidget * dragSource = 0, const char * name = 0 )

Creates a default text drag object. dragSource must be the drag source, name is the object name.

### QTextDrag::QTextDrag ( const char * text, QWidget * dragSource = 0, const char * name = 0 )

Creates a text drag object and sets it to text. dragSource must be the drag source, name is the object name.

### QTextDrag::~QTextDrag ()

Destroys the text drag object and frees all allocated resources.

### bool QTextDrag::canDecode ( QDragMoveEvent * e ) `[static]`

Returns TRUE if the information in e can be decoded into a QString.

See also: decode().

### bool QTextDrag::decode ( QDropEvent * e, QString & str ) `[static]`

Attempts to decode the dropped information in e into str, returning TRUE if successful.

### void QTextDrag::setText ( const char * text )
