We are trying to implement drag and drop from host to guest, and get stuck on 
it.
 
We figured how to accept drops and send the data to VBoxTray.exe running in 
guest vm. The problem is how to continue the drag and drop operations inside 
vm? We need to tell VBoxTray to initiate the drag operations, and we have 
difficult doing this.
 
When mouse moves to vm window while pressed down, how do you informs 
VBoxTray.exe to handle the mouse events? Seems no applications are getting the 
mouse events? We need to let a window proc to be called, and then start drag 
and drop from there.
 
In order to initiate a drag/drop operations, usually requires the mouse is 
clicked and moved over a visible window. We try to use a hidden window inside 
vm to initiate a call to the ole ::DoDragDrop() method, so far no luck. The 
hidden windows does not get the mouse events.
 
perhaps, we are in wrong direction, any suggestions?
 
Thanks,
 
Huihong
