[twitter-dev] Two apps one set of tolkens

2010-05-10 Thread scott . a . herbert
Just a quick questron, would two applications login in at the same time (via the same credencals, to the same account) cause twitter to have issues? I have a desktop client and background service that use the same database to tweet RSS feeds to twitter and am experances some strange issues

No two ways about it oAuth on desktop's sucks and I imagan it's even worse on mobiles. Twitter can add new source prams to their database for non-oAuth users however when I tryed they where unable to do so. I'm currently developing a different .net desktop app (think Hootsuite for desktops)

I 100% agree. But another idea just struck me, why not put the OAuth part of your app in a DLL (at lest the authentication and communication with twitter part) and hard code it their. You lose some of the open source nature of the app but it will be secure. Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange

Why not check for the presence of the keys on start-up, if they are missing re-direct the user (open a browser window) to the new apps page and/or a step-by-step guide on you site. then store the keys as normal Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange -Original Message- From: Raffi
