Problems importing facebook client library - El Forum - 03-04-2010

[eluser]igniteflow[/eluser]
Hi all,
I'm trying to import the facebook library to use in an application. I have put the following very basic code in my controller constructor:

Code:
class Home extends Controller {
        
        public $fb;
        public $fb_user;
        
        function Home()
        {
        parent::Controller();
            
        $this->load->helper('url');
            
            $this->load->library('facebook-client/facebook');
            $this->fb = new Facebook('xxx', 'xxx');
            $this->fb_user = $this->facebook->require_login();
        }

        function facebook() {
            $this->load->view('facebook_view');
        }

which when run i get the following errors

Code:
A PHP Error was encountered

However, this code works fine in plain PHP when I just write

Code:
require_once('facebook-client/facebook.php');
$facebook = new Facebook(API_KEY,SECRET_CODE);

can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

Solved it, by putting

Code:
/*
| -------------------------------------------------------------------
|  Native Auto-load
| -------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Nothing to do with config/autoload.php, this allows PHP autoload to work
| for controller types and some third-party libraries.
|
*/
function __autoload($class)
{
    if(strpos($class, 'CI_') !== 0)
    {
        $class = APPPATH . 'classes/'. $class . EXT;
        $lib = APPPATH . 'libraries/'. $class . EXT;

        if(file_exists($class))
        {
            include_once( $class );
        }

        else if(file_exists($lib))
        {
            include_once( $lib );
        }
    }
}

in config.php. I doubt this is the most efficient way of including a class in CI though, and would like to hear the best way to do it...
ps. the above method was posted by phil at stackflow

I'm still have that problem. I've put this code in the config.php, but doesn't worked.

And then, these messages started to show.

Code:

Somebody know how can I resolve that?
