if(actionMasked == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN || mFirstTouchTarget ! =null) {
final booleandisallowIntercept = (mGroupFlags & FLAG_DISALLOW_INTERCEPT) ! =0;
if(! disallowIntercept) { intercepted = onInterceptTouchEvent(ev); ev.setAction(action);// restore action in case it was changed
} else {
intercepted = false; }}Copy the codeWhen analyzing the dispatchTouchEvent method, mFirstTouchTarget is already assigned to ACTION_DOWN (because the child view has already consumed the event) and will not be null for subsequent ACTION_MOVE events. Search for where mFirstTouchTarget is assigned to NULL. There’s no place in this method to assign null except for every ACTION_DOWN event that resets null, so anyway, OnInterceptTouchEvent is always called when disallowIntercept is false, but when it returns true, it is not called again.
After debugging, the cause is found. When the ACTION_MOVE event that meets the interception conditions arrives:
while(target ! =null) {
final TouchTarget next = target.next;
if (alreadyDispatchedToNewTouchTarget && target == newTouchTarget) {
handled = true;
} else {
// Since intercepted is true, the cancelChild is true, which means that when the event is intercepted by the parent view, the view consuming the previous event will receive a Cancel event
final boolean cancelChild = resetCancelNextUpFlag(target.child)
|| intercepted;
if (dispatchTransformedTouchEvent(ev, cancelChild,
target.child, target.pointerIdBits)) {
handled = true;
}
if (cancelChild) {
if (predecessor == null) {
// There is only one TouchTarget, next is null, mFirstTouchTarget is null
mFirstTouchTarget = next;
} else {
predecessor.next = next;
}
target.recycle();
target = next;
continue; }}Copy the codeIn this logic, the mFirstTouchTarget will be reset to null, so the onInterceptTouchEvent will no longer be executed, so the onInterceptTouchEvent will not be executed.
