setupTouchDNDCustomEvents()
Once the initial setup function is called (setupTouchDNDCustomEvents()), touch events (touchstart on draggable html elements, touchmove during a drag, touchend during a drag) are intercepted and dispatch custom drag and drop events with the same datatransfer interface as html 5 drag and drop events (see https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/interaction.html#datatransfer for details).
The custom event names are as follows.
- touchdragstart (equivalent of html5 dragstart)
- touchdrag (equivalent of html5 drag)
- touchdragenter (equivalent of html5 dragenter)
- touchdragleave (equivalent of html5 dragleave)
- touchdragover (equivalent of html5 dragover)
- touchdrop (equivalent of html5 drop)
- touchdragend (equivalent of html5 dragend)
Because these custom events have the same interface as html5 drag and drop events, they can be treated the same way as a normal html 5 drag and drop event.
