Hey there, Please be careful when you share pieces of code on this Mailing List. I had to reset your Twitter password because you just shared it publicly. Please go to http://twitter.com/account/resend_password so we can send you password reset instructions.
Concerning your issue, the Streaming API doesn't timeout. Our servers hold the connection open indefinitely. Cf this documentation page for more information: http://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api_concepts#connecting Looks like you're disconnecting in your while loop. There are a couple of resources out there (like this Shannon Whitley's blog post: http://bit.ly/ghavU1) that might help you to build your Twitter Streaming API Client :) Hope that helps, Arnaud / @rno <http://twitter.com/rno> On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 10:12 AM, yippanion <yippan...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi > I'm trying the following code snippet to connect to your API but it is > timing out while waiting for the response. > string url = "http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json? > follow=12"; > WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create(url); > req.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("ConnectTweetPRO", > "Preston71"); > WebResponse response = req.GetResponse(); > Encoding encode = Encoding.GetEncoding("utf-8"); > var responseStream = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream(), > encode); > int count = 0; > while (!responseStream.EndOfStream && count < 2) > { > DateTime end = DateTime.Now + TimeSpan.FromSeconds(60); > while (DateTime.Now < end) > Thread.Sleep(1000); > Response.Write(responseStream.ReadLine()); > count++; > } > Can you help please?
