Hi guys, I tried to integrate my application with facebook using this code (of course, I inserted my appID at line 267), but when I run it on the iOS simulator, it says “not connected”:
--
-- Project: Facebook Connect sample app
--
-- Date: December 24, 2010
--
-- Version: 1.3
--
-- File name: main.lua
--
-- Author: Ansca Mobile
--
-- Abstract: Presents the Facebook Connect login dialog, and then posts to the user's stream
-- (Also demonstrates the use of external libraries.)
--
-- Demonstrates: webPopup, network, Facebook library
--
-- File dependencies: ui.lua, facebook.lua, json.lua libraries (included)
--
-- Target devices: Simulator and Device
--
-- Limitations: Requires internet access; no error checking if connection fails
--
-- Update History:
-- v1.1 Layout adapted for Android/iPad/iPhone4
-- v1.2 Modified for new Facebook Connect API (from build #243)
-- v1.3 Added buttons to: Post Message, Post Photo, Show Dialog, Logout
-- v1.4 Added ...{"publish\_stream"} .. permissions setting to facebook.login() calls.
--
-- Comments:
-- Requires API key and application secret key from Facebook. To begin, log into your Facebook
-- account and add the "Developer" application, from which you can create additional apps.
