When adding Facebook SDK " appeventslogger.activateapp(this)" is shown deprecated

Question

Using Facebook SDK 4.5. Tried using SDK 4.5 to 4.11. Problem still facing.

Its changed to AppEventsLogger.activateApp(Application)

But I am facing trouble while implementing it.

:

As per the commit on [Facebook SDK 4.11](https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk/blob/master/facebook/src/main/java/com/facebook/appevents/AppEventsLogger.java#L275) it does not have `deprecated` anotation on the method, try to clean your project. — Murtaza Khursheed Hussain, Apr 26 '16 at 07:23

Just replace AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this) to

AppEventsLogger.activateApp(getApplication());

Thank you so much, it worked. :) I came to know about it after i went through the latest sdk change logs. However Facebook should at least update their logs in a better way. – Ashish Dung Dung May 17 '16 at 13:13

@Ashish they have changed it. Before they asked you to put that code before setContentView() of your Activity where "this" would be Activity, now they ask you to put in in your Application class where "this" would be Application. – edwinj Jun 17 '16 at 18:32
Yes, I had noticed that later on, thanks for your answer, though, appreciate it :)! – Ashish Dung Dung Jun 18 '16 at 18:50
