Hi All,

I am keen to start implementing a Twitter Web Service application but
I can't find any published WADL in the Twitter API docs. My IDE
(NetBeans) contains a partial API WADL but I can't find the full API
anywhere. Could someone please point me in the direction of this? I'm
suprised it's so hard to find.

Many thanks,

Edd

Hi Edd,

We may provide a WADL in the future, but right now one is not available.

Hi Chad,

Thanks for getting back to me, I must say that's a shame that there's
no WADL as its absence makes the task of generating interface code
skeletons a much more arduous and inaccurate task, which I would
imagine will put off developers from working with Twitter. I'll keep
my fingers crossed for something in the future.

Cheers,

Edd

Hi, I'm new here, but i would strongly suggest Twitter to have a WADL,
because it really, makes the use of the Twitter API more easy.
in my case i have to use a library. so it would help a lot to make my
call directly from the twitter, if you had a WADL/WSDL url it only
would take me to
enter it on the visual studio "add Web references" and i would
automatically get the methods to use.
So this is a very important issue to deal with.

Please don't spend any time on a WADL.

The twitter interface is both simple and small. If it's an obstacle
to someone ....

I like your thinking.
