having to change to the OAuthSignpostClient

[randy]

I have this jtwitter app that i have created.
I have my customers twitter username/password in my database
I would connect and get their status and then post it on their website
that we provide

this is now broke and i get the error i have use OAuth
I tried following the example but get the error
"winterwell.jtwitter.TwitterException:
oauth.signpost.exception.OAuthExpectationFailedException: Authorized
request token or token secret not set. Did you retrieve an authorized
request token before?"

there was another thread that talked alittle about it, but i was not
completely sure what they where talking about
https://groups.google.com/group/jtwit/browse_thread/thread/4f06db05cbadd940?hl=en

it talks about "verifying the Authorization Code" , but i am not sure
how to do that

i was following the example on
http://www.winterwell.com/software/jtwitter.php

thanks for any help

sure all i am doing so far is the code from the example: ( i
appreciate the help)

try{

OAuthSignpostClient oauthClient = new
OAuthSignpostClient(JTWITTER_OAUTH_KEY,JTWITTER_OAUTH_SECRET, "oob");
oauthClient.setAuthorizationCode(keyPin);
Twitter twitter = new Twitter("paries",oauthClient);
String tStatus = twitter.getStatus().getText();
System.out.println(tStatus);
}catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}

and the exception is

winterwell.jtwitter.TwitterException:
oauth.signpost.exception.OAuthExpectationFailedException: Authorized
request token or token secret not set. Did you retrieve an authorized
request token before?

winterwell.jtwitter.OAuthSignpostClient.setAuthorizationCode(OAuthSignpostClient.java:

The problem is that you are trying to set a pin, when the pin has not
been retrieved by the user. More on this below.

The workflow for oauthorization is as follows:
1. Get a consumer key and secret by registering a (dummy) app at
dev.twitter.com. Choose the "client" method if you want to use the
"oob" (out of band) option. Use the values you get to set
JTWITTER_OAUTH_KEY,JTWITTER_OAUTH_SECRET. Then do:

OAuthSignpostClient oauthClient = new
OAuthSignpostClient(JTWITTER_OAUTH_KEY,JTWITTER_OAUTH_SECRET, "oob");

2. Get an authorization pin. This pin is a nonce (one time use only)
that is given after the user verifies using his Twitter
username and password. This is done by:

oauthClient.authorizeDesktop(); //should open a webpage where use can
authenticate on Twitter. He/she'll then be given a pin

// get the pin and enter it here
String v = oauthClient.askUser("Please enter the verification PIN from
Twitter");

3. If the pin is correct, then it is used in the method below to
request an access key and access secret that identifies the
user who enterer his/her username and password. The method also
'saves' the access key and secret inside the
oauthClient object:

oauthClient.setAuthorizationCode(v);

Since the keys are persistent, you can get them from the oauthClient
by doing something like the following. ACCESS_TOKEN
and ACCESS_KEY are Strings. You can then save them and use them later
so that you don't have to request a pin everytime:
oauthClient.setAuthorizationCode(verifier);
String[] pair = oauthClient.getAccessToken();

ACCESS_TOKEN=pair[0];
ACCESS_KEY=pair[1];

From there, you can do something like Twitter twitterUser = new
Twitter("username",oauthClient);

You can also create a new oauthClient by doing:


OAuthSignpostClient newOauthClient = new
OAuthSignpostClient(JTWITTER_OAUTH_KEY,JTWITTER_OAUTH_SECRET,
ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_KEY);//the last two are from above

Then Twitter twitter = new Twitter("username",newOauthClient);
