I’m looking for equivalents of UISwipeGestureRecognizer, UIRotationGestureRecognizer and UIPinchGestureRecognizer.
It is possible according to http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/018f8019ce36/README.gesture but very poorly documented (and the test app is also too basic to be useful).
Somebody posted here a more complete example, but with a big warning that “there is no API to prevent the mouse events so I have hacked the mouse events … watch future SDL 1.3 releases”: https://gist.github.com/1861681
