8//! Drag and Drop functionality for Dear ImGui
9//!
10//! This module provides a complete drag and drop system that allows users to transfer
11//! data between UI elements. The system consists of drag sources and drop targets,
12//! with type-safe payload management.
13//!
14//! # Basic Usage
15//!
16//! ```no_run
17//! # use dear_imgui_rs::*;
18//! # let mut ctx = Context::create();
19//! # let ui = ctx.frame();
20//! // Create a drag source
21//! ui.button("Drag me!");
22//! if let Some(source) = ui.drag_drop_source_config("MY_DATA").begin() {
23//! ui.text("Dragging...");
24//! source.end();
25//! }
26//!
27//! // Create a drop target
28//! ui.button("Drop here!");
29//! if let Some(target) = ui.drag_drop_target() {
30//! if target.accept_payload_empty("MY_DATA", DragDropFlags::empty()).is_some() {
31//! println!("Data dropped!");
32//! }
33//! target.pop();
34//! }
35//! ```
