onTouchevent() vs onTouch()

onTouch() is used by users of the View to get touch events while onTouchEvent() is used by derived classes of the View to get touch events.

1) Implementation:

If you want use onTouch() you have to do three things.

1- implement OnTouchListener

2- call setOnTouchListener() on the view you want to set catch the event

3- override onTouch() to handle the event

but if you want to use onTouchEvent() you don't need to do step 1 & 2 above. just you need to override onTouchEvent().

2) Working:

onTouch() works on view, viewgroup, activity. Meaning you can use onTouch() inside view, viewgroup or activity. This methods take two arguments [onTouch(View v, MotionEvent e) ]. This allows you filter events for different views in an activity or view group. Or the activity can itself handle it. onTouchEvent() takes on one argument [onTouchEvent(MotionEvent e) ]. Thus this can be used only inside the view that implements it or on the derived view.

I think, such options are part of Android's more flexible development philosophy, though it creates confusion for the learners at times.
