I'm using Cocos2d-x and trying to detect touches in my HelloWorld project. Though I'm having no luck.

.h

class HelloWorld : public CCLayer{

private:
    CCSpriteBatchNode * _batchNode;
    CCSprite *_turkey;
    virtual void ccTouchesBegan(cocos2d::CCSet* touches, cocos2d::CCEvent* event);

.ccp

void HelloWorld::ccTouchesBegan(cocos2d::CCSet* touches, cocos2d::CCEvent* event){
    CCLog("this");
}

but the thing is that when I click the screen 'this' never shows up in the log. What am i missing here?

thanks!
