Operations without OAuth token - is it possible?

[Stefan]

In examples: you pass token to constructor:
FacebookClient facebookClient = new
DefaultFacebookClient(MY_ACCESS_TOKEN);

Is there any method to perform search without such token? Example:
https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=graph - there is no token
specified and it works - you receive search results... I would like to
perform a few searches but I don't want to waste my time on parsing
responses (that's why libraries are written).

++ is there any clever way to obtain OAuth token in desktop
application without breach in user experience? (like redirecting user
to browser etc...)

Thanks in advance

That seems like a good feature request.

Not really, they suggest an embedded browser:

Yeah, it's my fault for not including this - see
http://groups.google.com/group/restfb/browse_thread/thread/50bcd87b73ce3cde
and http://code.google.com/p/restfb/issues/detail?id=39. It'll be
fixed in 1.6.

Thanks
