RadDock DragDrop: How do I determine the dragged item.

[F5F5F5]

Hi

I have a RadDock control (named dockManager) that I am listening to the drag/drop service on, using the following code in the form's constructor:

            DragDropService dragDrop = dockManager.GetService<DragDropService>();
            dragDrop.DragDropMode = DragDropMode.Preview;
            dragDrop.PreviewDockPosition += new DragDropDockPositionEventHandler(dragDrop_PreviewDockPosition);
            dragDrop.Starting += new StateServiceStartingEventHandler(dragDrop_Starting);
            dragDrop.AllowedStates = AllowedDockState.All & ~AllowedDockState.TabbedDocument;

 
I need to determine whether I am dragging a ToolWindow, a DockTabStrip and also determine the type of toolwindow/DockTabStrip
At the risk of asking a stupid question, how do I determine what object I am dragging in dragDrop_Starting event handler and/or dragDrop_PreviewDockPosition?

Thanks in advance

To answer my own question:
In the dragdrop event handlers, cast the sender to DragDropService and use dragDrop.DragDropContext.

I was attempting to use dragDrop.Context and it was returning null.

So, apologies for asking the initial silly question. In my defence, it is Monday morning and I don't normally wake up properly until half way through Tuesday.
