I have been so frustated by google API. Everytime I try, its just doesn’t work even after collecting tons of jars from here and there. I would be really grateful if anyone can help me with the below piece of code ->

import java.net.URL;
import com.google.gdata.client.docs.DocsService;
import com.google.gdata.data.docs.DocumentListEntry;
import com.google.gdata.data.docs.DocumentListFeed;


public class TestGoogleDocs {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            System.err.println("== Testing Google Docs ==");
            DocsService docService = new DocsService("Document list");
            docService.setUserCredentials("*****@gmail.com", "******");

            URL documentFeedURL = new URL("http://docs.google.com/feeds/documents/private/full");

            DocumentListFeed docsFeed = docService.getFeed(documentFeedURL, DocumentListFeed.class);

            for(DocumentListEntry entry: docsFeed.getEntries()){
                System.err.println(entry.getTitle().getPlainText());
            }
        }  catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

}

I have added following jar files in the classpath:

gdata-client-1.0.jar
gdata-client-meta-1.0.jar
gdata-core-1.0.jar
gdata-media-1.0.jar
gdata-docs-3.0.jar
gdata-docs-meta-3.0.jar

activation.jar
mail.jar
servlet-api.jar

guava-r09.jar

Error I am getting is:

com.google.gdata.util.ResourceNotFoundException: Not Found
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Not Found</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000">

    I think the URL is the problem is the URL–see below for more details.

    I think it is better to start from the sample code in gdata/java/sample/docs and take the DocumentList and DocumentList exception classes from the example.

    If you do so that reduces the above example to:

    import com.google.gdata.data.docs.DocumentListEntry;
import com.google.gdata.data.docs.DocumentListFeed;

public class Example {

static public void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    DocumentList docList = new DocumentList("document");
    docList.login("********@gmail.com", "********");
    DocumentListFeed feed = docList.getDocsListFeed("all");
    for (final DocumentListEntry entry : feed.getEntries()) {
       System.out.println(entry.getTitle().getPlainText());
    }
    }
}

    That example worked for me (with the r09 guava JAR).

    Tracing this example suggests that the generated URL is 

    "https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full"
