Question

EDIT

omg I clearly should take a break… logcat gives these errors and as
it seems the catch-block is also executed but the messages are
actually sent as I have verified by visiting the page:
http://yamba.marakana.com/

Actually a thing that took me 2 hours to get aware of.. can someone
please tell me why the app still wants to connect to twitter too?

I am following this tutorial from MarakanaTechTV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P1eiRy-klk&feature=relmfu

It’s about building a twitter-like client but for simplicity (avoiding OAuth) its useing its own service located here: http://yamba.marakana.com/ username is student and password is password.

here is my code:

    public void onClick(View v) {
    final String statusText = editStatus.getText().toString();

    //zeitkritische Aufgaben wie z.b. networking oder DB Zugriff dürfen nicht im main-thread laufen
    //App crashed sonst
    new Thread() {
        public void run() {
            try {                   
                Twitter twitter = new Twitter("student", "password");
                twitter.setAPIRootUrl("http://yamba.marakana.com/api");
                twitter.setStatus(statusText);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e("error", "DIED", e);
                //e.printStackTrace(e);

            }
        }
    }.start();

    Log.d("StatusActivity", "onClicked! with text: " + statusText);
}
}

and here is what logcat gives me:

It seems that the app tries to connect to twitter despite the fact that it should connect to the marakana-service because of this line:

twitter.setAPIRootUrl("http://yamba.marakana.com/api");

Answer 1

I also faced the same issue. My mistake was I forgot to remove the code for Toast from the catch block
