如何将Facebook整合到iPhone App中

Question

I know this is an often-asked question; but my point is this: what is the recommended or well-proven way to connect to FB from iPhone App.

Type 1: I saw the tutorial here . It uses AsiHttpRequest, Json libraries to post on FB wall.

Type 2: There is a tutorial here on Facebook site itself, which is using the same Graph API, but seems to be using different API calls to post on wall, logging in, etc.

Which of the above two is better? Type-1 uses external libraries but the tutorial is quite explanatory. Type-2 seems to be directly from Facebook, but then no idea how updated/outdated the tutorial is (no date indicated).

Answer 1

Type 2 was updated last Tuesday and type 1 was updated in January 2010, so I would suggest using Type 2 a) because the code is directly from Facebook and b) it is the most recent tutorial.

But, the best way to integrate Facebook is to use the new iOS 6 Facebook SDK .

Answer 2

The way to go is to download the facebook API for ios (and RTFM there :-)). If you are using ios 5 compile the lib as a static lib. Link your lib to your project and create some class wrappers to publish your app content into facebook. I haven't check the tutorial from Ray Wenderlich but you can probably try to do his tut with the facebook API you have build your own and is the most recent.
