UIView touch event in controller

Question

How can I add UIView touchbegin action or touchend action programmatically as Xcode is not providing from Main.storyboard?

Updating @Crashalot's answer for Swift 3.x:

override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
    if let touch = touches.first {
        let currentPoint = touch.location(in: self)
        // do something with your currentPoint
    }
}

override func touchesMoved(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
    if let touch = touches.first {
        let currentPoint = touch.location(in: self)
        // do something with your currentPoint
    }
}

override func touchesEnded(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
    if let touch = touches.first {
        let currentPoint = touch.location(in: self)
        // do something with your currentPoint
    }
}
