method:getTransferDataFlavors() [NONE]

getTransferDataFlavors
```
DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors()
```
Returns an array of DataFlavor objects indicating the flavors the data can be provided in. The array should be ordered according to preference for providing the data (from most richly descriptive to least descriptive).

Returns:

an array of data flavors in which this data can be transferred

method:isDataFlavorSupported(java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor) [NONE]

isDataFlavorSupported
```
boolean isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor flavor)
```
Returns whether or not the specified data flavor is supported for this object.

Parameters:

flavor - the requested flavor for the data

Returns:

boolean indicating whether or not the data flavor is supported

method:getTransferData(java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor) [NONE]

getTransferData
```
Object getTransferData(DataFlavor flavor)
                throws UnsupportedFlavorException,
                       IOException
```
Returns an object which represents the data to be transferred. The class of the object returned is defined by the representation class of the flavor.

Parameters:

flavor - the requested flavor for the data

Returns:

an object which represents the data to be transferred

Throws:

IOException - if the data is no longer available in the requested flavor

UnsupportedFlavorException - if the requested data flavor is not supported
