Drag-and-Drop Configuration
To use drag and drop, you have to provide the required configuration using the
dragDropConfig aggregation in sap.ui.core.Element.

Overview
The dragDropConfig aggregation with multiplicity 0..n is enabled for all controls and
elements in OpenUI5. However, it has to be defined in the metadata first.
Note: This configuration might be ignored due to metadata restrictions of sap.ui.core.Element.extend .
For more information, see the API Reference: sap.ui.core.Element.extend.

To enable configuration, the following configuration entities for the aggregation are
available:
• DragInfo

This class can be used to enable dragging if the drop target is unknown, or if you are
not the owner of the target. Additional checks can be done during the dragStart event,
and the default behavior can be changed.

• DropInfo

This class can be used as a general drop target. Incoming data might have to be
validated during the dragEnter event. Applications have to implement the drop event.

Both DragInfo and DropInfo provide the groupName property. If this property has been
specified, the DropInfo object only interacts with the relevant DragInfo classes within the
same group.
• DragDropInfo

This class can be used if the drag source and the drop target are closely connected, and
both are known. The most common use case is rearranging items.
