Question

I’m building an app, essentially a very basic Facebook client using the Facebook SDK for iOS. I have implemented the FBRequestDelegate protocol, and am sending my requests to the Open Graph API in the following way

[facebook requestWithGraphPath:@"me/friends" andDelegate:self]

This works fine, and once the requested content arrives, the SDK calls the delegate method, passing in the data

- (void)request:(FBRequest *)request didLoad:(id)result

My question is, does anyone know the best practice way to use the FBRequest passed into the delegate method to explicitly identify it as coming from my original request?

If I make several requests, how can I differentiate which request the delegate call is related to? I’m using BOOL flags, and only doing one request at a time at the moment, but it’s not a good way of doing it.

Any help much appreciated 🙂

Answer 1

The method requestWithGraphPath returns a FBRequest object which will be also passed to request:didLoad later. So you can simply compare the two objects and determine if they’re the same.
