Calling Methods from other Classes

[kylebeard]

I'm trying to call the touchesBegan, touchesMoved, and touchesEnded methods from one class(called MainLine) in my ViewController class. I created my object

MainLine *mainline = [[MainLine alloc] init];

and then tried to call to MainLine in

-(void)callingMethod {

[mainline touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];
[mainline touchesMoved:touches withEvent:event];
[mainline touchesEnded:touches withEvent:event];
}

and it did not work. Yet, it works perfectly fine when I run the entire methods in the ViewController. Any help?

You should not call those methods directly. The system calls them in response to user actions.

What you are trying to do will not work, for a variety of reasons.
