DESCRIPTION
The QIconDrag class is the drag object which is used for moving items in the iconview

The QIconDrag is the drag object which is used for moving items in the iconview. The QIconDrag stores exact informations about the positions of the items, which are dragged, so that each iconview is able to draw drag shapes in correct positions. Also the data of each dragged item is stored here.

If you want to use extended DnD functionality of the QIconView, normally it's enough to just create a QIconDrag object in QIconView::dragObject(). Then create for each item which should be dragged a QIconDragItem and set the data it represents with QIconDragItem::setData() and add this item to the drag object using append().

If you want to offer the data in other mime-types too, derive a class from this and implement the needed encoding and decoding here.

An example, how to implement this, is in the QtFileIconView example (qt/examples/qfileiconview/qfileiconview.h and qt/examples/qfileiconview/qfileiconview.cpp).
