deactivateApp(MainActivity) is undefined for the type AppEventsLogger

I am using Facebook SDK to create a simple Facebook log in application. I created a new app and added Facebook SDK in library. According to instruction given by Facebook i have added this code : 

@Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this);
    }

but along with this i need to add deactivation code as well, so i added this code : 

@Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        AppEventsLogger.deactivateApp(this);
    }

Here 'AppEventsLogger.deactivateApp(this);' is showing error "The method deactivateApp(MainActivity) is undefined for the type AppEventsLogger". Can any one help.

You need to initialize Facebook SDK before you can use it. Add a call to FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize from onCreate in Activity or Application:

// Add this to the header of your file:
import com.facebook.FacebookSdk;

// Updated your class body:
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext());
    // Initialize the SDK before executing any other operations,
    // especially, if you're using Facebook UI elements.
}

Add a uses-permission element to the manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

Add a meta-data element to the application element:

<application android:label="@string/app_name" ...>
    ...
    <meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId" android:value="@string/facebook_app_id"/>
    ...
</application>

Using Login or Share

To use Facebook Login or Share, also add the FacebookActivity to the manifest:

<activity 
      android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
      android:configChanges=
             "keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
      android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"
      android:label="@string/app_name" />
