android facebook sdk share-dialog setCaption无效

Question

I am using facebook sdk dependency 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.6.0'

I want to share a photo with some text. Here is the code i used from reference

    SharePhoto photo = new SharePhoto.Builder()
            .setBitmap(image)
            .setCaption("my caption appears here")
            .build();
    SharePhotoContent photoContent = new SharePhotoContent.Builder()
            .addPhoto(photo)
            .build();
    shareButton.setShareContent(photoContent);

It doesn't show caption in share dialog and also not in post on facebook timeline. How to post image with text on facebook wall ?

Wizkid is right. I was trying to do something similar and noticed that the setCaption() method did not work. Take a look at the android facebook sdk documentation in this link, and read the getCaption() method description:

" https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/android/current/class/SharePhoto/ "

"Gets the user generated caption. Note that the 'caption' must come from the user, as pre-filled content is forbidden by the Platform Policies (2.3)."
