Multiple file drag and drop in Air


If you are dragging multiple files into your Air and you need to grab them, make sure you do the following:

function dropHandler(event) {
    var files = new Array;
    files = event.dataTransfer.getData("application/x-vnd.adobe.air.file-list")
    ...
}

That mime-type is what you need to get a file list and not just the last file.
