In cocos2d-x 3.0 alpha you can try this:

auto listener = EventListenerTouchOneByOne::create();

listener->setSwallowTouches(true);

listener->onTouchBegan = [&](Touch* touch, Event* event){

    if (this->getBoundingBox().containsPoint(this->convertTouchToNodeSpace(touch))) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;

};

Director::getInstance()->getEventDispatcher()->addEventListenerWithSceneGraphPriority(listener, this);
