GestureDetector

public class GestureDetector
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.view.GestureDetector

Detects various gestures and events using the supplied MotionEvents. The OnGestureListener callback will notify users when a particular motion event has occurred. This class should only be used with MotionEvents reported via touch (don't use for trackball events). To use this class:

Create an instance of the GestureDetector for your View
In the View#onTouchEvent(MotionEvent) method ensure you call onTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent). The methods defined in your callback will be executed when the events occur.
If listening for OnContextClickListener#onContextClick(MotionEvent) you must call onGenericMotionEvent(android.view.MotionEvent) in View#onGenericMotionEvent(MotionEvent).

Summary

Nested classes
`interface`	`GestureDetector.OnContextClickListener` The listener that is used to notify when a context click occurs.
`interface`	`GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener` The listener that is used to notify when a double-tap or a confirmed single-tap occur.
`interface`	`GestureDetector.OnGestureListener` The listener that is used to notify when gestures occur.
`class`	`GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener` A convenience class to extend when you only want to listen for a subset of all the gestures.

Public constructors
`GestureDetector(GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener, Handler handler)` This constructor is deprecated. Use `GestureDetector(android.content.Context, android.view.GestureDetector.OnGestureListener, android.os.Handler)` instead.
`GestureDetector(GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener)` This constructor is deprecated. Use `GestureDetector(android.content.Context, android.view.GestureDetector.OnGestureListener)` instead.
`GestureDetector(Context context, GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener)` Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener.
`GestureDetector(Context context, GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener, Handler handler)` Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener that runs deferred events on the thread associated with the supplied `Handler`.
`GestureDetector(Context context, GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener, Handler handler, boolean unused)` Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener that runs deferred events on the thread associated with the supplied `Handler`.

Public methods
`boolean`	`isLongpressEnabled()`
`boolean`	`onGenericMotionEvent(MotionEvent ev)` Analyzes the given generic motion event and if applicable triggers the appropriate callbacks on the `OnGestureListener` supplied.
`boolean`	`onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev)` Analyzes the given motion event and if applicable triggers the appropriate callbacks on the `OnGestureListener` supplied.
`void`	`setContextClickListener(GestureDetector.OnContextClickListener onContextClickListener)` Sets the listener which will be called for context clicks.
`void`	`setIsLongpressEnabled(boolean isLongpressEnabled)` Set whether longpress is enabled, if this is enabled when a user presses and holds down you get a longpress event and nothing further.
`void`	`setOnDoubleTapListener(GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener onDoubleTapListener)` Sets the listener which will be called for double-tap and related gestures.

Inherited methods

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeout, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeout)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

Public constructors

GestureDetector

public GestureDetector (GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener, 
                Handler handler)

This constructor is deprecated.
Use GestureDetector(android.content.Context, android.view.GestureDetector.OnGestureListener, android.os.Handler) instead.

Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener. This variant of the constructor should be used from a non-UI thread (as it allows specifying the Handler).

Parameters
`listener`	`GestureDetector.OnGestureListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, this must not be null.
`handler`	`Handler`: the handler to use

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if either `listener` or `handler` is null.

GestureDetector

public GestureDetector (GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener)

This constructor is deprecated.
Use GestureDetector(android.content.Context, android.view.GestureDetector.OnGestureListener) instead.

Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener. You may only use this constructor from a UI thread (this is the usual situation).

Parameters
`listener`	`GestureDetector.OnGestureListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, this must not be null.

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `listener` is null.

Handler.Handler()

GestureDetector

public GestureDetector (Context context, 
                GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener)

Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener. You may only use this constructor from a Looper thread.

Parameters
`context`	`Context`: An `Activity` or a `Context` created from `Context#createWindowContext(int, Bundle)`
`listener`	`GestureDetector.OnGestureListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, this must not be null. If the listener implements the `OnDoubleTapListener` or `OnContextClickListener` then it will also be set as the listener for these callbacks (for example when using the `SimpleOnGestureListener`).

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `listener` is null.

Handler.Handler()

GestureDetector

public GestureDetector (Context context, 
                GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener, 
                Handler handler)

Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener that runs deferred events on the thread associated with the supplied Handler.

Parameters
`context`	`Context`: An `Activity` or a `Context` created from `Context#createWindowContext(int, Bundle)`
`listener`	`GestureDetector.OnGestureListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, this must not be null. If the listener implements the `OnDoubleTapListener` or `OnContextClickListener` then it will also be set as the listener for these callbacks (for example when using the `SimpleOnGestureListener`).
`handler`	`Handler`: the handler to use for running deferred listener events.

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `listener` is null.

Handler.Handler()

GestureDetector

public GestureDetector (Context context, 
                GestureDetector.OnGestureListener listener, 
                Handler handler, 
                boolean unused)

Creates a GestureDetector with the supplied listener that runs deferred events on the thread associated with the supplied Handler.

Parameters
`context`	`Context`: An `Activity` or a `Context` created from `Context#createWindowContext(int, Bundle)`
`listener`	`GestureDetector.OnGestureListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, this must not be null.
`handler`	`Handler`: the handler to use for running deferred listener events.
`unused`	`boolean`: currently not used.

Throws
`NullPointerException`	if `listener` is null.

Handler.Handler()

Public methods

isLongpressEnabled

public boolean isLongpressEnabled ()

Returns
`boolean`	true if longpress is enabled, else false.

onGenericMotionEvent

public boolean onGenericMotionEvent (MotionEvent ev)

Analyzes the given generic motion event and if applicable triggers the appropriate callbacks on the OnGestureListener supplied.

Parameters
`ev`	`MotionEvent`: The current motion event.

Returns
`boolean`	true if the `OnGestureListener` consumed the event, else false.

onTouchEvent

public boolean onTouchEvent (MotionEvent ev)

Analyzes the given motion event and if applicable triggers the appropriate callbacks on the OnGestureListener supplied.

Parameters
`ev`	`MotionEvent`: The current motion event.

Returns
`boolean`	true if the `OnGestureListener` consumed the event, else false.

setContextClickListener

public void setContextClickListener (GestureDetector.OnContextClickListener onContextClickListener)

Sets the listener which will be called for context clicks.

Parameters
`onContextClickListener`	`GestureDetector.OnContextClickListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, or null to stop listening for context clicks.

setIsLongpressEnabled

public void setIsLongpressEnabled (boolean isLongpressEnabled)

Set whether longpress is enabled, if this is enabled when a user presses and holds down you get a longpress event and nothing further. If it's disabled the user can press and hold down and then later moved their finger and you will get scroll events. By default longpress is enabled.

Parameters
`isLongpressEnabled`	`boolean`: whether longpress should be enabled.

setOnDoubleTapListener

public void setOnDoubleTapListener (GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener onDoubleTapListener)

Sets the listener which will be called for double-tap and related gestures.

Parameters
`onDoubleTapListener`	`GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener`: the listener invoked for all the callbacks, or null to stop listening for double-tap gestures.
