My friends were asking me to help them to debug an interest problem that they are facing with the Facebook Graph Desktop API.
The scenario as follows. A user log in to the desktop application (Adobe AIR) through Facebook and he decided to post something on his Facebook wall through the application and decides to log out of the Facebook and Application. If a second user tries to log in and post something to his Facebook wall using the application, the message will appear on the wall on the first user, rather than the second user. Therefore here's a fix to that issue if you are using the source files of the 'Facebook Graph Desktop API'.
public static function api(method:String,
callback:Function,
params:* = null,
requestMethod:String = 'GET'
):void {
getInstance().api(method,
callback,
params,
requestMethod
);
}
To
public static function api(method:String,
callback:Function,
params:* = null,
requestMethod:String = 'GET'
):void {
if(params != null)
{
if (getInstance().session != null) {
params.access_token = getInstance().session.accessToken;
}
}
getInstance().api(method,
callback,
params,
requestMethod
);
}

It seems that the Facebook Graph Desktop API has a bug. If a user has successfully log in to FB through the Adobe AIR application, the username and the password will be stored somewhere. Even after the user has log out of FB, the username and the password isn't cleared by the application and when another user tries to log in through the same application on the same machine, rather than prompting the user to enter his username and password, the application will log in automatically using the last set of username and password that are working perfectly. After spending a bit of time playing with it, I managed to find a workaround for this bug.
Rather than doing the following,//Rather than using the logout function of the API, //you need to add some more codes to it. FacebookDesktop.logout(handleLogout, APP_ORIGIN);
/*
All the following liners are required to logout successfully.
*/
var uri:String = APP_ORIGIN;
var params:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
params.next = uri;
params.access_token = FacebookDesktop.getSession().accessToken;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("https://www.facebook.com/logout.php");
req.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;
req.data = params;
var netLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
netLoader.load(req);
FacebookDesktop.logout(handleLogout, APP_ORIGIN);
