iphone interaction

[moebius]

After playing around a little with moondefender tutorial on windows, now I understand the basic behaviour of the engine.
And now I will switch to my macbook to test the building for iphone using xcode, but... because we don't have a keyboard on the iphone, what about the interaction keys for xcode?.
As far as I understand, mouse control can be simulated by on screen touch events.
Can this be customized in some way or is there any other kind of interaction method for iphone games?.
I suppose that the only way is to add some kind of on-screen joystick. But how can we control touch events on icons on the screen?. Is there some example somewhere?.

'Mouse button down' events are all you need.

I've written an on-screen joystick test app (using 'mouse button down' and 4 arrow actors) that moves a sprite all over the screen, and working like a charm.
Thank you
