[twitter-dev] Re: oAuth - xAuth
So, in a nutshell, this would be useful for Apps such as Seemic/ Tweetdeck/Ubertwitter/Tweetie: you download the app and after the user sets the User&Password and hit login, the App asks Twitter for the Access Tokens. From that moment, you may use oAuth methods to update the user's twitter status.

[twitter-dev] Re: oAuth - xAuth
Thank you Abraham. I would also like to know if I'm right here: imagine a "signin with twitter" + register website for a twitterfeed- like App. Basically xAuth needs the user credentials to ask http://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token and retrieve the Access Tokens. So, would this replace the "request tokens" that would redirect the user to twitter and then back to the app (oAuth)?. Will I still be able to use the previous oAuth methods (I'm using a java library) with the tokens that I receive with the xAuth registration? Thanks!

[twitter-dev] @Anywhere + Access Tokens
Hi! I just managed to use @Anywhere on a website for authentication. Now, I would like to know how do I get the Access Token and the Token Secret with @Anywhere. I've successfully made the "signin with Twitter" example. However after I've got the user information, I don't know any method that can give me his access tokens. Is there some way to do it? thank you in advance. -- Subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/subscribe?hl=en

Hi Michael! Thank you for answering! Did so, it says it is enabled. Now, I also noticed that in the beggining there's also a '--without curl' statement. Such a newbie question, but: would that affect in some way? Thank you again On 25 nov, 20:55, Michael Steuer wrote: > Create a page that prints out phpinfo().

[twitter-dev] Twitter PHP + CentOS
Hello there! I'm using a PHP Twitter OAuth library (twitter.abrah.am), and it works perfect on Windows: the php script looks asks twitter for an auth token. However, as soon as I put the same script on CentOS (with its default httpd service), it won't give any auth tokens at all. The script uses cURL to get the token from twitter. I've used cURL (curl www.google.com) and it works fine in console. What could be going wrong here? Is there something I should add of change first in order to receive the tokens? By the way, I got the CentOS default FW set allowing traffic on port 80 and SSH only. I would like to ask for a hint about what should I do, I'm kinda newbie on CentOS. thank you in advance
[twitter-dev] J2ME twitter client?
Hello! I would like to know if there's some simple method to receive updates only with J2ME. I've looked for solutions, but since J2ME lacks of lots of libraries, there's always a problem regarding some library that isn't included, thus making it impossible to compile... For instance, LoliTwitter is an open source J2ME app, but as soon as I get the .java files and import them directly to, say, my Netbeans project, it would prompt compiling errors. I guess there should be an easy solution based on the HTML/XML basics. I would really appreciate any help, any guidance
