A View's onTouchListener vs onTouchEvent

Question

What is the difference between a view\'s onTouchEvent :

public class MyCustomView extends View {
    // THIS :
    @Override
    public boolean on         


        

Answer 1

Answer by LeeYiHong is correct, and the other very important thing is what is written at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.OnTouchListener.html:

The callback [i.e. View.OnTouchListener -> onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)] will be invoked before the touch event [i.e. onTouchEvent(MotionEvent)] is given to the view.
