<h3 class="fn"><a name="Action-enum"></a>enum QDropEvent::<span class="name">Action</span></h3>
<p>When a drag and drop action is completed, the target is expected to perform an action on the data provided by the source. This will be one of the following:</p>
<table class="valuelist"><tr valign="top" class="odd"><th class="tblConst">Constant</th><th class="tblval">Value</th><th class="tbldscr">Description</th></tr>
<tr><td class="topAlign"><tt>QDropEvent::Copy</tt></td><td class="topAlign"><tt>0</tt></td><td class="topAlign">The default action. The source simply uses the data provided in the operation.</td></tr>
<tr><td class="topAlign"><tt>QDropEvent::Link</tt></td><td class="topAlign"><tt>1</tt></td><td class="topAlign">The source should somehow create a link to the location specified by the data.</td></tr>
<tr><td class="topAlign"><tt>QDropEvent::Move</tt></td><td class="topAlign"><tt>2</tt></td><td class="topAlign">The source should somehow move the object from the location specified by the data to a new location.</td></tr>
<tr><td class="topAlign"><tt>QDropEvent::Private</tt></td><td class="topAlign"><tt>3</tt></td><td class="topAlign">The target has special knowledge of the MIME type, which the source should respond to in a similar way to a Copy.</td></tr>

<p>The Link and Move actions only makes sense if the data is a reference, for example, text/uri-list file lists (see <a href="porting4.html#quridrag">QUriDrag</a>).</p>

<p>Call this to indicate that the action described by <a href="qdropevent-qt3.html#action">action</a>() is accepted (i.e. if <i>accept</i> is true, which is the default), not merely the default copy action. If you call acceptAction(true), there is no need to also call accept(true).</p>

<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qmimesource.html#encodedData">QMimeSource::encodedData</a>().</p>
<p>Returns a byte array containing the drag's data, in <i>format</i>.</p>
<p><a href="qdropevent-qt3.html#data">data</a>() normally needs to get the data from the drag source, which is potentially very slow, so it's advisable to call this function only if you're sure that you will need the data in that particular <i>format</i>.</p>
<p>The resulting data will have a size of 0 if the format was not available.</p>

<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qmimesource.html#format">QMimeSource::format</a>().</p>
<p>Returns a string describing one of the available data types for this drag. Common examples are "text/plain" and "image/gif". If <i>n</i> is less than zero or greater than the number of available data types, format() returns 0.</p>
<p>This function is provided mainly for debugging. Most drop targets will use <a href="qdropevent-qt3.html#provides">provides</a>().</p>
