iOS Drag a CCSprite not working? - ios

Question

So I'm using cocos2d and trying to drag a sprite across the screen, it was working prior to this.. but I can't seem to figure out what I did to make it not work. I'm seeing the ccTouchBegan and ccTouchEnd methods being called but not the ccTouchMoved.
I tried converting over to ccTouchesBegan, ccTouchesMoved, and ccTouchesEnded but am still only seeing the Began and Ended methods being called. Obviously I've commented out or changed a setting somewhere. I also commented out [[CCTouchDispatch sharedDisptacher] ...]; because it error'd with the ccTouches methods because it's native touches I believe.
Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Answer 1

Did you add yourself as a delegate?
[[CCTouchDispatcher sharedDispatcher]addTargetedDelegate:self priority:0 swallowsTouches:NO];
And then try this:
- (void)ccTouchMoved:(UITouch *)touch withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView: [touch view]];
mySprite.position = location;
}

Answer 2

You can do the moving of the sprite using the ccTouchMoved Easily.
Please try the below code. I made a short demo for my understanding of the same concept of yours. It works for me.
- (void)ccTouchMoved:(UITouch *)touch withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
NSSet *touches = [event allTouches];
for (int i = 0; i < touches.count; i++) {
UITouch *touch = [[touches allObjects] objectAtIndex:i];
CGPoint touchLocation = [touch locationInView: [touch view]];
CGPoint location = [[CCDirector sharedDirector]
convertToGL:touchLocation];
if(CGRectContainsPoint([sprite boundingBox], location))
sprite.position = ccp(location.x,location.y);
}
}
