Hey.
I believe JTwitter supports OAuth to authenticate against a developer account , however i cannot get any of them working.
The JTwitter docs say signpost is the supported method - yet I cannot seem to find the OAuthSignpostClient class they use even after adding the signpost libs:
OAuthSignpostClient client = new OAuthSignpostClient(JTWITTER_OAUTH_KEY, JTWITTER_OAUTH_SECRET, "oob");
Twitter jtwit = new Twitter("yourtwittername", client);
// open the authorisation page in the user's browser
client.authorizeDesktop();
// get the pin
String v = client.askUser("Please enter the verification PIN from Twitter");
client.setAuthorizationCode(v);
// Optional: store the authorisation token details
Object accessToken = client.getAccessToken();
// use the API!
jtwit.setStatus("Messing about in Java");
Has anybody code that code segment working?
Please help
Andy
