Hi,

I'm using Lazarus v0.9.28.2 beta. 

I found that I cannot set eoDropFiles option in SynEdit to make it
accept dropped files.  It seems (from the source code) that files
dropping has not been implemented.

How can I do add file dropping functionality to my application, like
Lazarus does?

You should set AllowDropFiles property of the Form to true. And write
this on the form event handler to drop files:

Code: [Select]procedure TForm1.FormDropFiles(Sender:TObject;const
FileNames:array of String);
begin
  SynEdit1.Lines.LoadFromFile(Filenames[0]);
end;
I think this is enough.
