I'm having trouble dropping an address from the IE address bar into a processing application, even the simple DropBasics.pde example that comes with sDrop. I think the problem is to do with Internet Explorer's Protected Mode. There's an informative article on MSDN about Allowing Drag and Drop Operations in your Application but I cannot work out even simple settings for a processing app. For instance the example registry setting in that article is
AppName="contose.exe"
AppPath="C:\%USERPROFILE%\ApplicationData\Contoso"
Policy=(DWORD) 00000003
but the running exe for processing is javaw and the following doesn't seem to work
AppName=javaw.exe
AppPath=C:\Windows\SysWOW64
Policy=dword:00000003
Has anyone had any success registering Processing applications to accept links dropped from the IE address bar? If so how is it done?
