'sharedDispatcher' is deprecated

Question

I've added this function.

- (void) registerWithTouchDispatcher {
    [[CCTouchDispatcher sharedDispatcher] addTargetedDelegate:self priority:0 swallowsTouches:YES];
}

error: sharedDispatcher is deprecated

what does it mean and what shall I do?

Take a look at ccDeprecated.h, it says to use:

[[CCDirector sharedDirector] touchDispatcher]

Change: [[CCTouchDispatcher sharedDispatcher] addTargetedDelegate:self priority:0 swallowsTouches:YES];

To: [[[CCDirector sharedDirector] touchDispatcher] addTargetedDelegate:self priority:0 swallowsTouches:YES];

You can check the Cocos2D code behind any Cocos (CC) method by pressing 'Shift+Command' keys and hovering on the method. Doing so on any deprecated method will take you to CCDeprecated.m which will also give you the new method.
