So I'm working with the Signpost OAuth library for Java. I'm running into some complications using the Apache Commons HTTP library with it. Take a look at the following code:
URL url = new URL("http://api.neoseeker.com/forum/get_pm_counts.json");
HttpRequest request = (HttpRequest) url.openConnection();
consumer.sign(request);
request.connect();
System.out.println("Response: " + request.getResponseCode() + " "
+ request.getResponseMessage());
This is taking from this example. You can see that request
used to be a HttpURLConnection
, but because I'll be using the Apache Commons HTTP library, I changed it to a HttpRequest
object. Now, I'm getting errors when I call connect()
, getResponseCode()
, and getResponseMessage()
, because those functions are for a HttpURLConnection
. What functions from HttpRequest
would I use so I can get the code to compile and run correctly? Thanks!
Signpost has a seperate module for using Apache's HTTP client. You need to use a CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer for this.
This module lives here - http://code.google.com/p/oauth-signpost/downloads/detail?name=signpost-commonshttp4-1.2.1.1.jar&can=2&q=
Some sample code to use it is here - http://code.google.com/p/oauth-signpost/wiki/ApacheCommonsHttp4, but it just comes down to instantiating a CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer instead of the normal one...
If you use maven, the coordinates are here, I couldn't find them documented anywhere when I was trying to figure this out...
<dependency>
<groupId>oauth.signpost</groupId>
<artifactId>signpost-commonshttp4</artifactId>
<version>1.2.1.1</version>
</dependency>
