Facebook SDK 3.5 in iOS 5 needs Social.framework

Question

Quick question. I'm getting to grips with the FB SDK 3.5 and I was following this tutorial on the Facebook site: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/getting-started/facebook-sdk-for-ios/

The problem is, it says the SDK needs Social.framework. As far as I'm aware, that's not available on iOS 5. Obviously I can set some frameworks to optional but I don't know if that will stop me from posting status updates on iOS 5. Any ideas?

Regards,

Answer 1

可以在iOS5中使用SDK，social.framework用于iOS6中的内置Facebook帐户功能，在iOS5中，SDK会跳过它。

Answer 2

It's okay to use the Facebook SDK, it needs you to add the Social.framework to your project, but this isn't available in iOS 5, not to worry the Facebook SDK will only use it if it's available (for the iOS built in Facebook integration).

But you do need to include it... so you should mark the Social.framework as "optional" in the Target's Build phases. This means it won't force it when you compile. Which can make you run into problems for iOS 5 which doesn't have Social.framework available.
