ECE497 Project: Twitter Java Application
Team members: David Zitnik
Contents
Executive Summary
For my final project I would like to develop and compile Java code on the BeagleBoard to create an application for Twitter that allows a user to sign in from the Beagle and post tweets using the Java Twitter API called Twitter4J.
Currently I have a graphical interface built using the Java Swing library.
I haven't been able to communicate with the twitter servers to pull down a current status or to post a new one.
Installation Instructions
Install the Java Development Kit on the beagle opkg install openjdk-6-jdk
User Instructions
I compile and run my code on the beagle using the Open JDK6 and using the commands assuming the file Main.java has my main method in it:
Compiling .java files in directory javac <filename>.java
Or compiling all .java files at once javac *.java
Running the application java Main
