Question

I have this:
and want the image SD to be able to be draged and dropped into another JLabel (the JLabel now shows the picture SD), how would I do it?

    ImageIcon SD = new ImageIcon("resources/terrains/StoneDungeon.jpg");
    JLabel dns=new JLabel( SD);
    frame.getContentPane().add(dns);
    dns.setBounds(800,150,50,50);
    dns.setFont(new Font("Courior", Font.BOLD, 25));
    dns.setForeground(Color.red);
    final String propertyName = "text";
    dns.setTransferHandler(new TransferHandler(propertyName));
    // Listen for mouse clicks
    dns.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt) {
            JComponent comp = (JComponent)evt.getSource();
            TransferHandler th = comp.getTransferHandler();


            // Start the drag operation
            th.exportAsDrag(comp, evt, TransferHandler.COPY);

Please don’t tell me to look at the tutorial, I already have.

I dont have enough rep to answer my question so here is the answer:

That was the stupidist mistake ever!!!!!!!!

code shoul’ve been:

        ImageIcon SD = new ImageIcon("resources/terrains/StoneDungeon.jpg");
    JLabel dns=new JLabel( SD);
    frame.getContentPane().add(dns);
    dns.setBounds(800,150,50,50);
    dns.setFont(new Font("Courior", Font.BOLD, 25));
    dns.setForeground(Color.red);
    dns.setTransferHandler(new TransferHandler(SD));
    MouseListener ml = new MouseAdapter(){
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e){
            JComponent jc = (JComponent)e.getSource();
            TransferHandler th = jc.getTransferHandler();
            th.exportAsDrag(jc, e, TransferHandler.COPY);
        }
    };
    dns.addMouseListener(ml);

I had put some string variables in instead of a picture to be moved!!!!
but now the problem is, you cant drag drop icons (SD)

Answer 1

ImageIcon SD = new ImageIcon("resources/terrains/StoneDungeon.jpg");
JLabel dns=new JLabel( SD);
    frame.getContentPane().add(dns);
    dns.setBounds(800,150,50,50);
    dns.setFont(new Font("Courior", Font.BOLD, 25));
    dns.setForeground(Color.red);
    dns.setTransferHandler(new TransferHandler("icon"));
    MouseListener ml = new MouseAdapter(){
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e){
            JComponent jc = (JComponent)e.getSource();
            TransferHandler th = jc.getTransferHandler();
            th.exportAsDrag(jc, e, TransferHandler.COPY);
        }
    };
    dns.addMouseListener(ml);
