type "dropevent" was not found.
this is in 0135.
when i try running them in 0148, i get this:
cannot find a class or type named "dropevent".

"dropevent" isn't something from inside Processing, is it inside your code?

void dropEvent(DropEvent theDropEvent) {
 if(theDropEvent.isFile()) {
   File myFile = theDropEvent.file();
   println("file path : "+myFile.getAbsolutePath());
   println("is directory ? "+myFile.isDirectory());
 }
 if(theDropEvent.isImage()) {
   img = new PImage(theDropEvent.image());
 }
 println("a dropEvent "+theDropEvent);
}
