Question

I have an activity class file and an adapter class file. It will be displaying a list of items loaded from the webpage. But I am having forced close on my WallPostListener. What is the problem here?

Maybe you can try this instead of the request. Use a dialog for custom message.

Replace .request with .dialog.

facebook.dialog(this, "feed", params, new PostDialogListener());

And add this to your Activity

public class PostDialogListener extends BaseDialogListener {
    @Override
    public void onComplete(Bundle values) {
        final String postId = values.getString("post_id");
        if (postId != null) {
        } else {
        }
    }
}
