Problem with Facebook request in Android

Question

I use facebook-android-sdk to post to my wall.

The following query:

Bundle params = new Bundle(); params.putString("message", "test message"); mAsyncRunner = new AsyncFacebookRunner(mFacebook); mAsyncRunner.request("me/feed", params, "POST", new PostRequestListener(), null); 

returns the warnings shown below, although the message displays correctly on the wall.

When converting a message to bytes, as shown in similar questions in Stackoverflow:

 params.putByteArray("message", "test message".Bytes()); 

there are no more warnings for the Key message, and the message appears on the Facebook wall, but without the message.

What's wrong?

Thanks.

Answer 2

Same question check facebook post

Ok try this method to post to the wall

 Bundle parameters = new Bundle(); parameters.putString("method", "stream.publish"); parameters.putString("attachment", "{\"name\":\"" + b.getString("title") + "\",\"description\":\"" + desc + "\"}]}"); authenticatedFacebook.dialog(DealCities_View.this, "stream.publish", parameters, new TestUiServerListener());
