From vsshell.idl:

HRESULT IVsHierarchyDropDataSource2::GetDropInfo(
   [out]DWORD* pdwOKEffects,
   [out]IDataObject** ppDataObject,
   [out]IDropSource** ppDropSource
);

This method changes the cursor based on the item that the source data is dragged over. The cursor values are determined by OLE. For example, for an effect of DROP_NONE, a circle with a line through it is displayed; for a move, a box with an arrow is displayed; and for a copy, the move icon with a plus sign is displayed.
