Analysis

Overview

  • This task is about the Drag'N'Drop base implementation. Sophie 2.0 should be able to provide a relatively complex DnD behavior.

Task requirements

  • Think of the following scenarios of a DND functionalities:
    • DnD for resources:
      • media resources - audio, video, images etc. (may include things like flash in a later revision).
      • text resources - txt, rtf.
      • html resources.
      • content - text content should be processes when dragged to a text frame for example.
    • DnD into UI components:
      • text frames - should be able to process text dragging and dropping.
      • image frames - should be able to accept DnD of image content.
      • media frames - should be able to accept DnD of media files.
      • palletes:
        • Resource palette:
          • Should process dropping of files.
          • User should be able to drag files outside Sophie 2.0.
        • Same applies to Page templates palette, Plug-in palette, Books palette, Pages palette, Book templates palette etc.
        • Things should be dragged into palettes and out of, or just transfer things from one palette to another

(from Page palette to Page templates palette should create a template for the page that is dragged and dropped in the templates palette.) .

  • work areas - should process dragging of frame templates, resources (resulting in creating an appropriate frame).
  • books desktop - should process creating a book from a template by dropping that template, should be able to export a book template by dragging it to the book templates.
  • All of the things mentioned should be made possible. The person should decide on whether some library should be used or another one should be written.
    • provide a way to actually test the drag and drop functionalities.
    • implement at least 3 DnD scenarios from the table that follows.
  • A description in a wiki page should be created, explaining how to use the library and how things work.
  • Examine the following table => http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=p-0Oq38E1aysuTs69KE68Nw&hl=en
    • decide what could added.
    • decide if there is something to remove.
  • Unit test for the base implementation.

Task result

  • source code

Implementation idea

  • review DnD library in java.
  • research for some other library.
  • design the final library that we are going to use - it may be something existing or something that is newly created and uses something existing.

How to demo

  • Execute the Unit tests.
  • Execute the three scenarios that have been implemented.
