Creates a local JVM transferable from a mutable list model.

Returns:

A JVM local object transferable of type java.util.LinkedList if indices.length > 1. A JVM local object transferable of type model.getElementAt(indices[0]).getClass() if indices.length = 1.

createFileListTransferable

public static java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable createFileListTransferable(MutableListModel model,
                                                                            int[] indices)
