Answer 1

I got this by using the request:-

Facebook *facebook = [[Facebook alloc] initWithAppId:SHKCONFIG(facebookAppId) 
                                     urlSchemeSuffix:SHKCONFIG(facebookLocalAppId) 
                                         andDelegate:nil];
// ... do authorization stuff

// when authorized...
[facebook requestWithGraphPath:@"me" andDelegate:self];

and implementing the delegate callback in the same file:-

- (void)request:(FBRequest *)request didLoad:(id)result
{
    NSString *fbid = [result objectForKey:@"id"];
    NSLog( @"facebook ID %@", fbid );
}

This does work, but I've no idea if this is the recommended technique, since it's the first time I've used sharekit. It seems odd to me the singleton method [SHKFacebook facebook] is private and you have to instantiate an object yourself.
