      public class DropTargetDropEvent
      extends DropTargetEvent

  The `DropTargetDropEvent` is delivered via the `DropTargetListener` drop() method.

  The `DropTargetDropEvent` reports the source drop actions and the user drop action that reflect the current state of the drag-and-drop operation.

  Source drop actions is a bitwise mask of `DnDConstants` that represents the set of drop actions supported by the drag source for this drag-and-drop operation.

  User drop action depends on the drop actions supported by the drag source and the drop action selected by the user. The user can select a drop action by pressing modifier keys during the drag operation:

         Ctrl + Shift -> ACTION_LINK
         Ctrl         -> ACTION_COPY
         Shift        -> ACTION_MOVE

  If the user selects a drop action, the user drop action is one of `DnDConstants` that represents the selected drop action if this drop action is supported by the drag source or `DnDConstants.ACTION_NONE` if this drop action is not supported by the drag source.

  If the user doesn't select a drop action, the set of `DnDConstants` that represents the set of drop actions supported by the drag source is searched for `DnDConstants.ACTION_MOVE`, then for `DnDConstants.ACTION_COPY`, then for `DnDConstants.ACTION_LINK` and the user drop action is the first constant found. If no constant is found the user drop action is `DnDConstants.ACTION_NONE`.

    - #### DropTargetDropEvent

          public DropTargetDropEvent(DropTargetContext dtc,
                             Point cursorLocn,
                             int dropAction,
                             int srcActions)

      Construct a `DropTargetDropEvent` given the `DropTargetContext` for this operation, the location of the drag `Cursor`'s hotspot in the `Component`'s coordinates, the currently selected user drop action, and the current set of actions supported by the source. By default, this constructor assumes that the target is not in the same virtual machine as the source; that is, `isLocalTransfer()` will return `false`.

      Parameters:
        `dtc` - The `DropTargetContext` for this operation
        `cursorLocn` - The location of the "Drag" Cursor's hotspot in `Component` coordinates
        `dropAction` - the user drop action.
        `srcActions` - the source drop actions.
      Throws:
        ``NullPointerException`` - if cursorLocn is `null`
        ``IllegalArgumentException`` - if dropAction is not one of `DnDConstants`.
        ``IllegalArgumentException`` - if srcActions is not a bitwise mask of `DnDConstants`.
        ``IllegalArgumentException`` - if dtc is `null`.

    - #### DropTargetDropEvent

          public DropTargetDropEvent(DropTargetContext dtc,
                             Point cursorLocn,
                             int dropAction,
                             int srcActions,
                             boolean isLocal)

      Construct a `DropTargetEvent` given the `DropTargetContext` for this operation, the location of the drag `Cursor`'s hotspot in the `Component`'s coordinates, the currently selected user drop action, the current set of actions supported by the source, and a `boolean` indicating if the source is in the same JVM as the target.

      Parameters:
        `dtc` - The DropTargetContext for this operation
        `cursorLocn` - The location of the "Drag" Cursor's hotspot in Component's coordinates
        `dropAction` - the user drop action.
        `srcActions` - the source drop actions.
        `isLocal` - True if the source is in the same JVM as the target
      Throws:
        ``NullPointerException`` - if cursorLocn is `null`
        ``IllegalArgumentException`` - if dropAction is not one of `DnDConstants`.
        ``IllegalArgumentException`` - if srcActions is not a bitwise mask of `DnDConstants`.
        ``IllegalArgumentException`` - if dtc is `null`.
