Dear stackoverflow folks! To this day I never saw the need to ask a question, because all of you have done a great job in asking and answering nearly all of the code-related problems I encountered. So, thank you for that!
At the moment I am working on an iOS application that is able to process raw touch events. These are then sent to an iMac over a WiFi network (the protocol I use is OSC). On the OS X side there is a server application listening for these OSC messages and converting them to mouse pointer movement / mouse button press / multi-touch gestures. So basically I want to build a (of course much more basic) software-bundle like mobile mouse (http://mobilemouse.com/) that I am able to adapt to the needs of our customers (by the means of customizing colors / additional buttons / gestures, and so on) for small remote control projects.
Right now, everything works but the multitouch gestures (pinch, rotate, two-finger-scroll). So my question is: How can I programmatically create and post a multitouch gesture event?
I searched a lot and found some threads about it here on stackoverflow, but none of them could help me: Is there a way to trigger gesture events on Mac OS X? - Is there a way to change rotation of gesture events? - Generate and post Multitouch-Events in OS X to control the mac using an external camera - ...
Update 1: The last thing I tried was:
CGEventSourceRef eventSource = CGEventSourceCreate(kCGEventSourceStateCombinedSessionState);
CGEventRef event = CGEventCreate(eventSource);
CGEventSetType(event, NSEventTypeMagnify);
CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, event);
CFRelease(eventSource);
