What's the trick to pass an event to the next responder in the responder chain?

Question

Apple is really funny. I mean, they say that this works:

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
    UITouch* touch = [touches any

According to a similar question, your method should work.

This leads me to think that your view's nextResponder is not actually the ViewController, as you suspect.

I would add a quick NSLog in your forwarding code to check what your nextResponder really points to:

if (numTaps < 2) {
    NSLog(@"nextResponder = %@", self.nextResponder);
    [self.nextResponder touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];
}

You can also change your other NSLog messages so that they output type and address information:

NSLog(@"touched %@", self);

touched

This should get you started on diagnosing the problem.
