Question

I’m building the Twitter Client in Windows Phone, using Hammock Library DLL
When I try to get the twitter access token key after I entered my username and password,
I got the return access token key in a very strange characters form.

This is what I got from the Twitter API:

“�\b\0\0\0\0\0�D�K�0@��03�߀����#�\0���b��k���Hpϝ�E�V͜\noo-[���#�༑,W]��eDz�#�p���,�\t��?k�?o%%@�w��¬���)�Q��\a�^a�>9TNi�8Y��H\n�x��5�%��z�(!�\0\0��\0_��Ԡ\0\0\0”

So after that it will be unsuccessful and won’t redirect me back to my application.

Any idea of what happens?

Thank you.

The OAuth token might be encoded in GZip.

Here is the code snippet to handle that case:

if (webResponse.Headers["Content-Encoding"] == "gzip")
{
  stream = new GZipInputStream(stream);
}
