Social API GetLoading overload

While testdriving the new Social API we came across an odd method in ISocialPlatform. It doesnt seem to be documented, yet it is included in the assembly. The method is called GetLoading, and accepts a LeaderBoard as argument.


Visual Studio automaticly adds it when you implement ISocialPlatform, but what are we supposed to do with it, and why is it missing from the documentation?

We're also very interested to know if anyone else has already adapted this new API in their projects, and their experiences.
(ps: would anyone like to see a follow up to our Facebook and Unity tutorial, using this new API? Let us know, and we try to see what we can do!)

 

I would like to see a follow up to your previous article.
Please also share your experience implementing the ISocialPlatform interface

Thanks

 

Hey Tijmen, nice work on the tutorial

Have you actually started implementing Facebook with ISocialPlatform? I'm thinking about doing it myself as it could make stuff more fun and usable. I've written a create screenshot and add as attachment to your Facebook post application. It works but it aint pretty. also added in Facebook achievements. For me it's a start but i still have time to do more.

ps. my guess is that GetLoading only checks the Leaderboard to see if it has completed loading the list of users and scores as ILeaderboard.loading is a simple bool;

 

Thinking on starting my own implementation of ISocialPlatform for Facebook SDK. Would be very interested to know if you had some success on this task.
