TkDND
TkDND is an extension that adds native drag & drop capabilities to the Tk toolkit.
It can be used with any Tk version equal or greater to 8.3.3 and currently only the UNIX (X-Windows), Microsoft Windows (XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10) and OS X (10.5+) operating systems are supported.
Installation
Requirements
- An installation Tcl/Tk, with version >= 8.3.3. The Tcl/Tk installation must contain the files tclConfig.sh, tkConfig.sh and the development libraries, under Unix/Linux/OSX/Windows, if you want to use configure/make. The files tclConfig.sh, and tkConfig.sh are not required if you want to use CMake.
- CMake, version >= 3.2.
- A working C/C++ compiler.
- tclsh/wish must be in the PATH environmental variable. Typing
tclsh
in a command prompt/terminal, must run the executable from the Tcl/Tk installation TkDND will be built against.
Build with CMake (the suggested way)
CMake is a cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software. In order to build TkDND with CMake, perform the following steps:
Windows
Visual Studio
Execute the tools command prompt, according to the desired architecture (32/64 bits - it must match the architecture of the Tcl/Tk installation). For 32-bits build, execute the "x86 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017", and for 64-bits execute the "x86 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017". You can download the Visual Studio Community edition for free, from Microsoft: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/.
After the command prompt has opened, execute the following:
cd <tkdnd-src-directory>/cmake
build.bat (for 32-bit) or build64.bat (for 64-bits)
If system detection has completed without errors, two new directories will be created, debug-nmake-x86_32
and release-nmake-x86_32
, for building debug/release builds for 32-bits, or debug-nmake-x86_64
and release-nmake-x86_64
for building debug/release builds for 64-bits.
For building a(ny) release:
cd release-nmake-x86_64
nmake install
The resulting binaries will be placed in <tkdnd-src-directory>/cmake/runtime
directory.
The whole process should like like the following output:

Build with configure/make
Windows
G++ and MSYS2
If you don't want to use CMake, you can install MSYS2 and the G++ compiler (TkDND requires a C++ compiler for Windows). You can follow these instructions to install MSYS2:
https://github.com/orlp/dev-on-windows/wiki/Installing-GCC--&-MSYS2
After installing MSYS2, and making sure that your Tcl/Tk installation can be used from inside MSYS2 terminal, you can use the standard configure/make install procedure to build TkDND. You can automate the configuration process, by running in an MSYS2 terminal:
cd <tkdnd-src-directory>
tclsh tcl-conf
make install
The resulting binaries will be placed in <tkdnd-src-directory>/cmake/runtime
directory.
Unix, Linux
If you don't want to use CMake, you can use configure/make to build TkDND. Just open a terminal and execute the following:
cd <tkdnd-src-directory>
tclsh tcl-conf
make install
The resulting binaries will be placed in <tkdnd-src-directory>/cmake/runtime
directory.
