Connect to facebook from Flash

I want to click a button in my flash application, log in to facebook, leave a comment on wall and sign out. I try to figure it out but it seems complicated. Does anyone have an example or any sample code for this easy functionality?

As said in previous answers, you can just use the graph api to connect to facebook. Below is a sample of how to start up your connection with facebook and how to get your access_token (It is used here to post to your wall).

public function FBConnect():void
{   
    //Set applicationid
    _applicationID = "YourID";

    //Set permissions to ask for
    _extendedPermissions = {perms:"read_stream, publish_stream, user_about_me, read_friendlists, user_photos"};

    //Initialize facebook
    Facebook.init(_applicationID);
}

public function post(message:String):void
{
    var _params:Object = new Object();

    _params.access_token = Facebook.getSession().accessToken;
    _params.message = message;

    Facebook.api("/" + _user + "/feed", messagePosted, _params, "POST");
}

This should do the trick :)

BigSpaceship released a bunch of classes, one of them dealing with Actionscript and connecting to Facebook. Take a gander at their overview page http://www.bigspaceship.com/blog/labs/bss-classes-flash-and-the-fb-graph/ and see if it's something that works for your idea (it seems like it would).

It's good that you have mentioned actionscript3. This is the AS3 SDK for Facebook
On a side note, you might find this article quite useful
