I need to talk to an API that can send some information back.
For example a twitter API that returns the latest Tweets.
I have written a working php code but i am not able to do the same using Qt.
My has to do the following functions.
-Talk to the API
-Receive Information
-Display the information
I have used Qt for other purpsoses such as talking to a DLL but i do not know much about Qt and Internet.
Hopefully someone can help me to solve the problem.
here is my php code
<html>
<head><title>
Twitter API
</title></head>
</html>
<?php
$login = "1"; //Add the Username:password for authenticated sessions
$tweets = "http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.xml";
$tw = curl_init();
curl_setopt($tw, CURLOPT_URL, $tweets);
curl_setopt($tw, CURLOPT_USERPWD,$login);
curl_setopt($tw, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$twi = curl_exec($tw);
$tweeters = new SimpleXMLElement($twi);
$latesttweets = count($tweeters);
//echo the data
foreach ($tweeters->status as $twit1) {
echo "<div class='name'>",'<b>'.$twit1->user->name.'</b>',"</div>";
echo "<div class='text'>".$twit1->text." <div class='description'>","</div></div></div>";
}
curl_close($tw);
?>
