I have a solution,although you might not think it's a good solution. The
problem is that the view count is only correctly returned for PhotoEntry
requests that are requested directly. So although the AlbumFeed contains
PhotoEntry objects, those objects will not work for you.
But you can do this:
String albumId = "5789637314433011089";
feedURL = new URL(
String.format("https://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/default/albumid/%s?v=2&kind=photo";,
albumId));
AlbumFeed albumFeed = myService.getFeed(feedURL, AlbumFeed.class);
for (PhotoEntry photo : albumFeed.getPhotoEntries()) {
String photoId = photo.getGphotoId();
URL photoEntryUrl = new URL(
String.format("https://picasaweb.google.com/data/entry/api/user/default/albumid/%s/photoid/%s?v=2";,
albumId, photoId));
PhotoEntry photoEntry = myService.getEntry(photoEntryUrl,
PhotoEntry.class);
System.out.println("View count = " + photoEntry.getViewCount());
}
The thing to notice is that the URL for the nested request is
.../data/entry/api... instead of .../data/feed/api...
I hope that helps, at least a little.
