Facebook-graph-api – Does the /me/friends Facebook open graph API call ever get paginated

If a user connects to your Application you can retrieve their friends like so:

    $facebook = new Facebook(array(
                'appId' => 'xxxxxxxx',
                'secret' => 'xxxxxxx',
                'cookie' => true,
            ));

    // $session is only != null, when you have the session-cookie, that is set by facebook, after the user logs in
    $session = $facebook->getSession(); 

    // you dont get a list of friends, but a list, which contains other friendlists
    $friendsLists = $facebook->api('/me/friends');

    foreach ($friendsLists as $friends) {
      foreach ($friends as $friend) {
         // do something with the friend, but you only have id and name
         $id = $friend['id'];
         $name = $friend['name'];
      }
   }

But you only have access to id and name of the friends.

Graph API is the smart choice in most cases. To retrieve your friend information you need to collect some extended permissions from the user first. Then you can retrieve a lot more information other than the basic ones.
