Drag and Drop or Windows Messages?

[PatrickAupperle]

I need to be able to drop a file into an SFML window. Implementing drag and drop seems to be impossible, though. Any method to do drag and drop on Windows seems to require access to the message queue, which SFML does not provide. Can anyone help with this? Is it just impossible to do drag and drop with SFML?

Access to the window's raw events is not currently possible through SFML's window management but is considered for a future version.

You could create the window directly yourself and then use SFML within it. I'm almost certain that that's possible.
