Android BasicGestureDetect Sample
===================================

This sample detects gestures on a view and logs them. In order to try this
sample out, try dragging or tapping the text.

Introduction
------------

In this sample, the gestures are detected using a custom gesture listener that extends
[SimpleOnGestureListener][1] and writes the detected [MotionEvent][2] into the log.

In this example, the steps followed to set up the gesture detector are:
1. Create the GestureListener that includes all your callbacks.
2. Create the GestureDetector ([SimpleOnGestureListener][1]) that will take the listener as an argument.
3. For the view where the gestures will occur, create an [onTouchListener][3]
that sends all motion events to the gesture detector.
