Question

I am currently making a Facebook application for iOS that pulls the profile feed and puts it in a UITableView.

Right Now When the View Loads:

 [facebook requestWithGraphPath:@"me/feed" andDelegate:self];

and in -(void)request:(FBRequest *)request didLoad:(id)result, i have:

NSArray *messagesFBData = [result objectForKey:@"data"];
NSMutableArray *friendIds = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:messagesFBData.count];
NSMutableArray *fromData = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:messagesFBData.count];
NSMutableArray *imagesLocal = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:messagesFBData.count];
for (int x = 0; x < messagesFBData.count; x++) {
    if ([(NSDictionary *)[messagesFBData objectAtIndex:x] objectForKey:@"message"] != nil) {

        [friendIds addObject:[((NSDictionary*)[messagesFBData objectAtIndex:x]) objectForKey:@"message"]];
        NSLog(@"loop Log: %@", [(NSDictionary *)[messagesFBData objectAtIndex:x] objectForKey:@"message"]);
        [fromData addObject:[((NSDictionary*)[messagesFBData objectAtIndex:x]) objectForKey:@"from"]];
        NSLog(@"%@", [((NSDictionary*)[messagesFBData objectAtIndex:x]) objectForKey:@"from"] );
        NSDictionary *fromDataDictionary = [fromData objectAtIndex:x]; 
        [imagesLocal addObject:[UIImage imageWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://graph.facebook.com/%@/picture", [fromDataDictionary objectForKey:@"id"]]]]]];
            NSLog(@"facebook ID: %@", [fromDataDictionary objectForKey:@"id"]);
    } else  
         {
             NSLog(@"Nil Called");                 
         }

}

// don't forget to call loadData for your tableView
messages = friendIds;
images = imagesLocal;
NSLog(@"Equalized");
self.facebookTableView.delegate = self;
NSLog(@"Delegate Set");
[facebookTableView reloadData];

images is a global array, so i can access it in -(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath.

so in -(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath, i have:

NSLog(@"Cell For Row Called");
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView 
                         dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"messageCell"];
NSString *story = [messages objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = story;

UIImage *image = [images objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.imageView.image = image;

cell.alpha = 1;
return cell;

So the question I am having a horrible time with is when a user posts a picture or video on the wall, how do i handle that? I would like to display the image/video in the tableview itself. Right Now, it just crashes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Virindh Borra

At what point is it crashing? Did you place any breakpoints in the code? When you add the UIImage to the imagesLocal array, are you the path at "https://graph.facebook.com/%@/picture" contains a valid image?
