Class TwitterRESTService

java.lang.Object
com.codename1.io.ConnectionRequest
com.codename1.io.services.TwitterRESTService
All Implemented Interfaces:
IOProgressListener

public class TwitterRESTService extends ConnectionRequest
Calls to the Twitter REST API can be performed via this class although currently support for authentication isn't implemented due to the transition to oAuth instead of basic authentication.

  • Method Details

    • initToken

      public static String initToken(String consumerKey, String consumerSecret)

      Logs in to twitter as an application

      Parameters
      • consumerKey: the key to login with

      • consumerSecret: the secret to to login with

      Returns

      the authorization token

    • setToken

      public static void setToken(String token)

      For every request twitter now needs an authorization token

      Parameters
      • token: the token
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object o)
      Description copied from class: ConnectionRequest
      Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. The equals method implements an equivalence relation: It is reflexive: for any reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true. It is symmetric: for any reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true. It is transitive: for any reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true. It is consistent: for any reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false. The equals method for class Object implements the most discriminating possible equivalence relation on objects; that is, for any reference values x and y, this method returns true if and only if x and y refer to the same object (x==y has the value true).
      Overrides:
      equals in class ConnectionRequest
    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Description copied from class: ConnectionRequest
      Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hashtables such as those provided by java.util.Hashtable. The general contract of hashCode is: Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application. If two objects are equal according to the equals(Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result. It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals(java.lang.Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hashtables. As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the JavaTM programming language.)
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class ConnectionRequest
    • readResponse

      protected void readResponse(InputStream input) throws IOException

      Callback for the server response with the input stream from the server. This method is invoked on the network thread

      Parameters
      • input: the input stream containing the response
      Throws
      • IOException: when a read input occurs
      Overrides:
      readResponse in class ConnectionRequest
      Throws:
      IOException
    • getParseTree

      public Hashtable<String,Object> getParseTree()

      Returns the full Hashtable parse tree read from the server

      Returns

      the parse tree

    • getStatusesCount

      public int getStatusesCount()

      Returns the number of statuses within the response

      Returns

      the number of statuses

    • getStatus

      public Hashtable<String,Object> getStatus(int offset)

      Returns the status at the given offset

      Parameters
      • offset: the offset for the status
      Returns

      the status hashtable

    • getIdStr

      public String getIdStr()

      Gets the id string of the first entry which is important if we want to set the id to start with in the next request

      Returns

      the id of the first entry
