## Class BasicSplitPaneDivider.DragController

- java.lang.Object
- - javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicSplitPaneDivider.DragController

- Direct Known Subclasses:
    `BasicSplitPaneDivider.VerticalDragController`
  Enclosing class:
    BasicSplitPaneDivider

      protected class BasicSplitPaneDivider.DragController
      extends Object

  Handles the events during a dragging session for a HORIZONTAL_SPLIT oriented split pane. This continually messages `dragDividerTo` and then when done messages `finishDraggingTo`. When an instance is created it should be messaged with `isValid` to insure that dragging can happen (dragging won't be allowed if the two views can not be resized).

  Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans™ has been added to the `java.beans` package. Please see `XMLEncoder`.
