Drag and Drop an Email from MS Outlook to Eclipse RCP

desktop, eclipse, integration, java, ms-office

Solution

Maybe this is a solution for your problem: http://sourceforge.net/projects/javaoutlookdd/ It allows to handle outlook items like File objects during drag&drop.

Problem

Has anyone got a working solution without some Java/COM-bridge? E.g. process the Email as a file (.msg) rather than locating the data that is referenced in the Clipboard?
