By using the declarative Dynamics API, you can model gravity, collisions, force, attachments, springs, elasticity, and numerous other behaviors and apply them to UIKit objects. While this recipe presents a traditional approach to moving and constraining UI objects via gesture recognizers and direct frame manipulation, you can construct a much more elaborate variant with Dynamics. Figure 1-1 shows a sample interface. The subviews (flowers) are constrained into the black rectangle in the center of the interface and cannot be dragged offscreen.
All views inherit basic nonfunctional versions of the methods. When you want to add touch behavior to your application, you override these methods and add a custom version that provides the responses your application needs. Notice that UITouchPhaseStationary does not generate a callback. Your classes can implement all or just some of these methods. For real-world deployment, you will always want to add a touches-cancelled event to handle the case of a user dragging his or her finger offscreen or the case of an incoming phone call, both of which cancel an ongoing touch sequence.
That’s because each UITouch object persists at a single address throughout the touch– move–release life cycle. Apple recommends against retaining UITouch instances, which is why the integer values of these objects are used as keys in this recipe. By using the physical address as a key, you can distinguish each touch, even as new touches are added or old touches are removed from the screen. info Recipe: Using Multi-Touch Interaction Be aware that new touches can start their life cycle via touchesBegan:withEvent: independently of others as they move, end, or cancel.
