I've played around a bit with twitter4j and found it absolutely wonderful. Now I've been looking into the equivalent for facebook but so far haven't had much luck finding a decent project.

I looked into facebook-java-api but it appears that they break their API from release to release. I consider this unacceptable.

I'm currently playing around a bit with RestFB and the API seems decent so far but I've been having some connection problems.

I'm just looking for a simple library that lets me post status updates, send direct messages and get a list of friends through minimal coding effort.

Has anyone had any success using a java API for facebook and if so, what are you using? Thanks.
