Hi,
This is not that difficult a problem. In your DragGestureListener when you
override dragGestureRecognized you will call startDrag on the
DragGestureEvent, one of the parameters to this call is the Transferable
which is the contents of the drag drop. You can make this Transferable
contain an array of objects (I created a class which I called
SerializeableTransferable which implemented Transferable and contained an
array of Serialiazable objects).
Then in your DropTargetListener (in the destination of the drag drop)
remember when you get the data from the getTransferable method on
DropTargetDropEvent in the drop method that the data you will be receiving
is an array.

Of course you should probably define your own DataFlavor to cope with this.
