Creating the Facebook event helper class

To present a Facebook event, you must create a wrapper.

To create the Facebook event wrapper class, perform the following procedure:

1. In the context menu of folder Utilities, click Add » Class...

2. In the Name input field, enter FacebookEvent.

3. Open the file FacebookEvent.cs and add the following constructors:

   public FacebookEvent()

   {

       this.Id = String.Empty;

       this.Name = String.Empty;

       this.Location = String.Empty;

       this.StartTime = DateTime.Now;

       this.EndTime = DateTime.Now;

   }

    

   public FacebookEvent( string id, string name, string location, DateTime startTime, DateTime endTime )

       : this()

   {

       this.Id = id;

       this.Name = name;

       this.Location = location;

       this.StartTime = startTime;

       this.EndTime = endTime;

   }

4. Define the Facebook event properties by pasting the following code:

   public string Id

   {

       get;

       set;

   }

    

   public string Name

   {

       get;

       set;

   }

    

   public string Location

   {

       get;

       set;

   }

    

   public DateTime StartTime

   {

       get;

       set;

   }

    

   public DateTime EndTime

   {

       get;

       set;

   }

You create the FacebookEvent class to present a Facebook event. Then, you define the Id, Name, Location, StartTime andEndTime properties that Facebook provides you when requesting the event.
