Hi Tomas, you are absolutely right but i am considering caching in a different task that i am doing.. Thanks!

If you unfollow or follow or block you get an user xml back from Api - is it to difficult to remove or add the returned id manually from ID List/Array? We talk about runtime? This saves a lot of expensive Api calls (to load the id's on start and manage them within your code then) On 6 Okt., 23:35, twittme_mobi wrote: > Hi Tomas, > > I just checked the social graph functions.The point is that if i make > unfollow > and then get all the id's of users that i follow - the user id that i > unfollowed would be still there - e.g. > this methods are not updated in real time. > > Could you all comment on this?Is that a bug? > > On Oct 6, 11:47 am, twittme_mobi wrote: > > > Hi Tomas, > > > Thanks for the colaboration! > > I do not handle all the users at the same time, i just ment that > > storing session data for all currently logged-in users could take some > > memory > > resources but in general i agree with you...some caching along > > with a proper implementation should not harm :) > > > Thanks! > > > On Oct 5, 1:27 pm, Thomas Hübner wrote: > > > > I only can talk for .NET - A Dictionary(of Long, Boolean) with 5000 > > > Id's needs around 500 Ticks If I request the Method .ContainsKey.

[twitter-dev] Re: How to check if user is followed?
Hi Tomas, I just checked the social graph functions.The point is that if i make unfollow and then get all the id's of users that i follow - the user id that i unfollowed would be still there - e.g. this methods are not updated in real time. Could you all comment on this?Is that a bug?

Hi Tomas, Thanks for the colaboration! I do not handle all the users at the same time, i just ment that storing session data for all currently logged-in users could take some memory resources but in general i agree with you...some caching along with a proper implementation should not harm :) Thanks!

[twitter-dev] Re: How to check if user is followed?
I only can talk for .NET - A Dictionary(of Long, Boolean) with 5000 Id's needs around 500 Ticks If I request the Method .ContainsKey. I don't think that an API Request with parsing xml can be faster. Additional you nail the server with unneeded requests which are "expensive" (rate limits) too I don't know your Applicaton but you'll handle all accounts at the same time? Normaly if an user authenticates the first calls could be to request the ID Lists and store them during this users sessiontime. If a user leaves you can free this memory.

Hi Tomas, another question to collaborate, do you think that is faster to find the ID in array by iterating it rather that searching for a string in the XML with some well known search function On Oct 5, 10:54 am, twittme_mobi wrote: > Hi Tomas, > > Thanks for the clarification. > One question - if you have many users, you will need to load all the > IDs > for All the users in the memory - isn't that too heavy?some of the > users have 10+ followers. > > Thanks. > > On Oct 4, 6:26 pm, Thomas Hübner wrote: > > > the problem is that a friendship exist is an "expensive" API Call (of > > 150 possible per hr) I do not know what kind of Application you plan but > > for my client App I load the ID's of followers with one API call and > > keep this list in memory.

[twitter-dev] Re: How to check if user is followed?
Hi Tomas, Thanks for the clarification. One question - if you have many users, you will need to load all the IDs for All the users in the memory - isn't that too heavy?some of the users have 10+ followers. Thanks.

[twitter-dev] Re: How to check if user is followed?
the problem is that a friendship exist is an "expensive" API Call (of 150 possible per hr) I do not know what kind of Application you plan but for my client App I load the ID's of followers with one API call and keep this list in memory. If a status become loaded I compare the icluded UserID with the list and switch the menues depending on containing this ID or not. This is much faster then request the API each time. Only situation which is not working for are search calls because the delivered result (ATOM) does not contain any userID which is a fail twittme_mobi schrieb: > Hi Tomas, > > thanks for the reply! > the social graph methods are too heavy for such a simple operation. > I have to check if user is followed every time that a profile is > visited so > i would now where to put "Follow" or "Unfollow" button.It is not > reasonable > to execute the social graph methods every time, because sometimes > users might > have thousands of followers.Isn't it the friendship/exists method that > needs to be fixed, > after all, it is just for checking if user is followed or not.. > > Thanks!Your opinion is welcome! > > On Oct 3, 2:20 pm, Thomas Hübner wrote: >> you have the social graph methods which deliver ID's.

[twitter-dev] Re: How to check if user is followed?
Hi Tomas, thanks for the reply! the social graph methods are too heavy for such a simple operation. I have to check if user is followed every time that a profile is visited so i would now where to put "Follow" or "Unfollow" button.It is not reasonable to execute the social graph methods every time, because sometimes users might have thousands of followers.Isn't it the friendship/exists method that needs to be fixed, after all, it is just for checking if user is followed or not..
