Check out the sample project here for app descriptor inclusions.
Android
You will need to add the following activities and permission in your application descriptor:
<android>
...
<manifestAdditions><![CDATA[
<manifest android:installLocation="auto">
...
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<application>
...
<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
android:value="fb{YOUR_FB_APPLICATION_ID}"/>
<activity android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation" android:label="{YOUR_FB_APPLICATION_NAME}" />
<activity android:name="com.freshplanet.ane.AirFacebook.LoginActivity"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation" />
<activity android:name="com.freshplanet.ane.AirFacebook.ShareDialogActivity"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation" />
<activity android:name="com.freshplanet.ane.AirFacebook.AppInviteActivity"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation" />
<activity android:name="com.freshplanet.ane.AirFacebook.GameRequestActivity"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation" />
<!-- If you're sharing links, images or video via the Facebook for Android app, you also need to declarthe FacebookContentProvider in the manifest. -->
<provider android:authorities="com.facebook.app.FacebookContentProvider{YOUR_FB_APPLICATION_ID}"
android:name="com.facebook.FacebookContentProvider"
android:exported="true"/>
</application>
</manifest>
]]></manifestAdditions>
</android>
You can check out our example of this in our sample project here.
NOTE: It is important to prefix YOUR_FB_APP_ID with "fb" in <meta-data>
(and ONLY in <meta-data>
) tag, because obug in Android manifest file (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16156856/android-facebook-applicationid-cannot-be-null)Facebook SDK code in this ANE was modified to recognize FB_APP_ID prefixed with "fb".
Once installed you can initialize the ANE...
Facebook.instance.init("0123456789", _initCallback);
and it will be ready to go! Check out our sample code to aid you.
Should you need to edit the extension source code and/or recompile it, you will find an ant build script (build.xml) in the build folder:
cd /path/to/the/ane
# Setup build configuration
cd build
mv example.build.config build.config
# Edit build.config file to provide your machine-specific paths
# Build the ANE
ant
This ANE has been originally written by Thibaut Crenn, Alexis Taugeron, Renaud Bardet and Adam Schlesinger. Rewrites and modifications to version SDK 4.x were made by Ján Horváth.
