Event distribution object: Touch event definition: When the user touches the screen (a control derived from View or ViewGroup), a Touch event is generated. The details of the Touch event (location, time, etc.) are encapsulated into the MotionEvent object event type (4 types) : ACTION_DOWN, MotionEvent.ACTION_UP, MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE, MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL In general, the event column starts with a DOWN event and ends with an UP event, with countless MOVE events in between. When a click event is generated, The system needs to pass this event to a specific View to handle

The nature of event distribution: the whole process of passing a click event to a specific View & processing, i.e. the process of event delivery = the process of distribution

Between which objects are events passed? Activity, ViewGroup, View

The order in which events are delivered: Activity -> ViewGroup -> View

What methods are used to coordinate the event distribution process? DispatchTouchEvent () : dispatches click events. This method is called onInterceptTouchEvent() when the click event can be passed to the current View: Determines whether to intercept an event. OnTouchEvent () is called within dispatchTouchEvent() of the ViewGroup: handle the click event. Called within dispatchTouchEvent()

Activity’s event distribution mechanism: When a click event occurs, Event to the Activity first dispatchTouchEvent () event distribution Activity. The dispatchTouchEvent () – > getWindow (). SuperDispatchTouchEvent () – > MDecor. SuperDispatchTouchEvent () – > ViewGroup. DispatchTouchEvent () – > / end – > Activity. The onTouchEvent () – > end
