How can I post a comment to a blog anonymously?
The following code works but authenticates the person posting the
comment where as on the real blogger.com i can post comments
anonymously, as well.
// assume context is an obect i have setup to have the
appropriate values
GoogleService myService =
new GoogleService("blogger", context.getGoogleAppId());
myService.setUserCredentials(context.getGoogleLogin(),
context.getGooglePassword());
URL commentsUrl = new URL(blog.getCommentsUrl());
Entry e = new Entry();
e.setContent(new PlainTextConstruct("Why, helloooooo
worl!"));
e.setTitle(new PlainTextConstruct("the title of a new
comment"));
Person p=new Person("Anon" ,null, null );
e.getAuthors().add(p) ;
Entry entry = myService.insert(commentsUrl, e);
It doesnt seem to matter what I put in the Person object, the comment's
poster is always going to be whover gets logged in through
myService.setUserCredentials( .. , ... )
Is there a way to acheive "Anonymous" posting on the blog?
If I remove the setUseCredentials call, thent he blog posting fails
altogether with,
