Hi,
Please ignore my last mail. I am able to solve it.
But I came to know one thing that some part of documentation of OAuth on
google site (http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OAuth_ref.html) is
really confusing. For example documentation of OAuthGetRequestToken reads:
*Depending on the type of request sent, these parameters can be placed in:*
- *Authorization header of a **GET** or **POST** request. Use
"**Authorization:
OAuth**". All parameters listed above can go in the header, except for **
scope** and**xoauth_displayname**, which must go either in the body or in
the URL as a query parameter. The example below puts them in the body of
the request.*
So it means I should not be able to send "scope" in authorization header,
but I was able to get a valid request token by sending scope in
authorization header.
Regards,
Devendra
