We have an API :) - Page 10

Waiting for the java version of the API...When can i expect a java version?

I know I posted a C# example; Did I do a Java one as well?

[riahc3]

Exactly. I knew I did one in the crappiest language known to mankind:

Crude and nasty example. I dont plan to further develop it either (unless its a quick and easy fix)

[riahc3]

Do we have any decent app that uses the API yet?

Like I said, my own posting app would be intresting but I havent had any time to develop it.

[<M/>]

I heard that there is an app in the progress (for android).

Is there? I vaguely recall someone saying they wanted to write one, but not sure if it's been started or even if they intend to pursue it.

I thought you wrote another post that there is an app in the works. ( you posted here ). but your probably right about the project not being pursued.

[Dani]

Yeah, that's an iPhone app, but it's in its very early stages.

you get to permanently disable ads on the site. I think that's pretty generous :)

How many posts do you need until you disable ads? Sometimes... i randomly keep the ads on and off to see the pretty ads... :D

[Dani]

Not many ... ten I think? Or a member for more than a few weeks? I forget the specific credentials but they are just enough to prove that you're a real community member versus someone who joins and lurks or asks one question and never returns.

That is a smart move, but sadly there are users like that.

A Android app..........Hmm...............

Porting my crude example to Android would only have the problem of the Jersey library AFAIK.

[harinath_2007]

Harinath, as Sanjay says, the API is language-agnostic, meaning that it is fully functional with any language that is capable of making HTTP requests.

Oh..I never knew that REST and JSON thing. But i started learning it and found interesting. Especially JSON (because of its easy syntax). I thought that I will get some jar libraries(external jar libraries and API) . I wanted to develop a java desktop application which notifies me whenever someone commented on my thread or a new post in my desired thread.
Anyhow I will learn json and try to develop that thing...
Maybe if time permits , I want to develop full featured daniweb desktop application which notifies me without even checking the daniweb.com website regularly....

[Dani]

Sounds good :) That should all be doable.

[pixelsoul]

I was looking and I may have missed it but, what is the limit on API requests that can be made?
I am assuming there is one set.

[Dani]

There is currently no limit on the number of API requests that can be made. However, requests that don't use an access token are heavily cached.
