Check my blogspot in which I have shown the drag drop image onTouch
event.
Edit
: here is the full code:
First of all create android project in your eclipse and create a class and layout file as below:
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends Activity
{
private ImageView m_ivImage, m_ivImage1;
private int m_counter = 0;
float m_lastTouchX, m_lastTouchY, m_posX, m_posY, m_prevX, m_prevY, m_imgXB, m_imgYB, m_imgXC, m_imgYC, m_dx, m_dy;
private LinearLayout m_llTop;
private AbsoluteLayout m_alTop;
private Button m_btnAddView, m_btnRemove;
private Context m_context;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_layout);
m_context = this;
m_prevX = 0;
m_prevY = 0;
m_imgXB = 50;
m_imgYB = 100;
m_imgXC = 150;
m_imgYC = 100;
m_ivImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.ivImage);
m_ivImage1 = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.ivImage1);
m_llTop = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.llTop);
m_alTop = (AbsoluteLayout) findViewById(R.id.alTop);
m_btnAddView = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnAdd);
m_btnRemove = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnRemove);
m_ivImage.setOnTouchListener(m_onTouchListener);
m_ivImage1.setOnTouchListener(m_onTouchListener);
m_btnAddView.setOnClickListener(m_onClickListener);
m_btnRemove.setOnClickListener(m_onClickListener);
}
OnClickListener m_onClickListener = new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View p_v)
{
switch (p_v.getId())
{
case R.id.btnAdd:
addView();
break;
case R.id.btnRemove:
removeView();
break;
default:
break;
}
}
};
OnTouchListener m_onTouchListener = new OnTouchListener(){
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View p_v, MotionEvent p_event)
{
switch (p_event.getAction())
{
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
{
m_lastTouchX = p_event.getX();
m_lastTouchY = p_event.getY();
break;
}
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
{
break;
}
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
{
m_dx = p_event.getX() - m_lastTouchX;
m_dy = p_event.getY() - m_lastTouchY;
m_posX = m_prevX + m_dx;
m_posY = m_prevY + m_dy;
if (m_posX > 0 && m_posY > 0 && (m_posX + p_v.getWidth()) < m_alTop.getWidth() && (m_posY + p_v.getHeight()) < m_alTop.getHeight())
{
p_v.setLayoutParams(new AbsoluteLayout.LayoutParams(p_v.getMeasuredWidth(), p_v.getMeasuredHeight(), (int) m_posX, (int) m_posY));
m_prevX = m_posX;
m_prevY = m_posY;
}
break;
}
}
return true;
}
};
/**
* Add view dynamically for drag and drop
*/
private void addView()
{
ImageView m_img = new ImageView(m_context);
TextView m_tv=new TextView(m_context);
if (m_counter < 5)
{
if (m_counter % 2 == 0)
{
m_img.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.bol_green);
m_tv.setText("Hello! Drag Me! ");
m_alTop.addView(m_tv, new LayoutParams(android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ((int) m_imgXB), ((int) m_imgYB)));
m_alTop.addView(m_img, new LayoutParams(android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ((int) m_imgXB), ((int) m_imgYB)));
}
else
{
m_img.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.bol_paars);
m_alTop.addView(m_img, new LayoutParams(android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ((int) m_imgXC), ((int) m_imgYC)));
}
m_counter++;
if (m_counter == 5)
m_btnAddView.setEnabled(false);
}
m_img.setOnTouchListener(m_onTouchListener);
m_tv.setOnTouchListener(m_onTouchListener);
}
public void removeView()
{
m_counter = 0;
m_alTop.removeAllViews();
m_alTop.invalidate();
m_btnAddView.setEnabled(true);
}
}
main_layout.xml
<LinearLayout

Here is the boundary file xml code which shows the border of the layout in which object moves.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
