Hey guys,
I am totally new to Tweeter API, and I just started trying to write a c
++ app on the windows mobile to use the tweeter API. Just to get a
feel for things, I wrote the function below. I know it has a lot of
probs, but I just wanted to get something quick to see if I could talk
to the Tweeter API. So to start with, I am not even doing auth and
just try to get the status of 123. However, when I do the
InternetReadFile, I kept getting the following, which seems like part
of an html file. So if any1 has an idea on what I am doing wrong, plz
lemme know. (Btw, I am not using the urlencoded content-type because I
think it's not required for GET commands?) Thanks in advance.
