I´ve been trying to use the Twitter 4J library and Processing to do search queries. The example on the Twitter4J website, under sample code, goes like this:



   Twitter twitter = new Twitter();
   Query query = new Query("source:twitter4j yusukey");
   QueryResult result = twitter.search(query);
   System.out.println("hits:" + result.getTotal());
   for (Tweet tweet : result.getTweets()) {
       System.out.println(tweet.getFromUser() + ":" + tweet.getText());
   }




This does not run because of an error in the for loop. To be more specific, this part:

for (Tweet tweet : result.getTweets()) {
       System.out.println(tweet.getFromUser() + ":" + tweet.getText());







I´ve made some adjustments and can get it to print out all the info from the query:


Twitter twitter = new Twitter();
   Query query = new Query("design");
   try {
   QueryResult result = twitter.search(query);
 
   for (int var = 0; var < 1; var++) {
       System.out.println(result.getTweets());

   }
   }
 
      catch( TwitterException e)
       {
            println(e.getStatusCode());
       }





The problems is that I want to now use the Tweet Class to implement some methods which will pull out specific information from the query, such as the text of the update and the user id. Frankly speaking I just don´t know how to create a Tweet object and connect it to the query. I think it has to do with not knowing how to properly use the constructor.

Any help?

Thanks for link Cedric, but I´ve actually scoured that post pretty good.

I´m surprised that there aren´t more people using this library.

When I finally get my project done, I´ll be posting it.
