PickerFragment
This class is no longer available in the most recent version of the SDK.
A more recent version of this class is available. Check out the latest version.

Provides functionality common to SDK UI elements that allow the user to pick one or more graph objects (e.g., places, friends) from a list of possibilities. The UI is exposed as a Fragment to allow to it to be included in an Activity along with other Fragments. The Fragments can be configured by passing parameters as part of their Intent bundle, or (for certain properties) by specifying attributes in their XML layout files.

PickerFragments support callbacks that will be called in the event of an error, when the underlying data has been changed, or when the set of selected graph objects changes.
