Why are you using a Java lib when there is an amazing CF project that does the same?

I got oAuth to work, and I was able to return a string that looks like JSON but isn't. I am no JAVA programmer. I can do something with the string that is returned, but I ran into a snag when I tried to parse it. There are commas inside single quotes that coldfusion wants to treat like a delimiter. I could parse the string if I knew how to regex and replace the commas that not inside the single quotes. That would give a delimiter other than a comma for the twitter posts. Here is my code that I'm using to return my twitter posts: <cfscript> configBuilder = createObject("java", "twitter4j.conf.ConfigurationBuilder"); configBuilder.setOAuthConsumerKey(auth.consumerKey); configBuilder.setOAuthConsumerSecret(auth.consumerSecret); configBuilder.setOAuthAccessToken(auth.accessToken); configBuilder.setOAuthAccessTokenSecret(auth.accessTokenSecret); config = configBuilder.build(); twitterFactory = createObject("java", "twitter4j.TwitterFactory").init(config); twitter = twitterFactory.getInstance().getUserTimeline().toString(); </cfscript> The string that it returns looks like this: Twitter looks like this: [StatusJSONImpl{createdAt=Mon Jan 14 13:32:31 EST 2013, id=290889145251946496, text='Since I have been unemployed, I've been freelancing using http://t.co/6fVzx6UX.
