Hi,

I got the code below from a tutorial for using Facebook in Corona. I installed in on my Android and it failed for a UI error. Then I tried running it in the simulator and got the following error:

It seems to be missing the ui.lu file? The following code is in the main.lua file.

Thanks!

  
ui = require("ui")  
local facebook = require "facebook"  
  
local appId = "hidden"  
  
local myButton = ui.newButton {  
 defaultSrc = "fb.png" , defaultX = "300" , defaultY = "50",  
 onEvent = onClick,  
 id = "myButton"  
}  
myButton.x = display.contentWidth / 2  
myButton.y = display.contentHeight / 2  
local function onClick( event )  
 if(event.phase == "release") then  
 facebook.login( appId, listener )  
 end  
end  
  
function listener( event )  
 if ( "session" == event.type ) then  
 if ( "login" == event.phase ) then  
 facebook.request( "me" )  
 end  
 elseif ( "request" == event.type ) then  
 local response = event.response  
 print( response )  
 end  
end

I think the UI is not available because I’m not a subscriber yet. So I stripped it out and hoped the Facebook part would just run when I launch the app but I just get a blank screen from the code below. Shouldn’t I get the login dialog?

[code]

local facebook = require “facebook”

local appId = “hidden”
facebook.login( appId, listener )
function listener( event )
if ( “session” == event.type ) then
if ( “login” == event.phase ) then
facebook.request( “me” )
end
elseif ( “request” == event.type ) then
local response = event.response
print( response )
end
end

You should be able to find ui.lua in one of the demo apps and just copy it in to this app folder.

Just in case you weren’t aware, Facebook login does not work in the Simulator, only on devices. So you won’t get the login dialog. [import]uid: 84115 topic_id: 32553 reply_id: 129458[/import]
