Integrate Twitter (IOS 5.0)

start here http://iphonedevelopertips.com/core-services/ios-5-twitter-framework-part-1.html

I Used the gamekit.mm to make things easier

Make sure you add the twitter framework

#import <Twitter/Twitter.h>

above the function -(void) presentViewController:(UIViewController*)vc create a new function

- (void) tweet:(int)score { // Create the view controller TWTweetComposeViewController *twitter = [[TWTweetComposeViewController alloc] init];   // Optional: set an image, url and initial text //[twitter addImage:[UIImage imageNamed:<a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/iOSDevTips.png" rel="nofollow">@iOSDevTips.png</a>]]; [twitter addURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithString:@"<a href="http://www.fawzma.com&quot" rel="nofollow">http://www.fawzma.com&quot</a>; ]]]; NSString *s = [NSString stringWithFormat:<a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Just%20scored%20%25d%20on%20app%20name%20for%20iPad%21" rel="nofollow">@Just scored %d on app name for iPad!</a>,score]; [twitter setInitialText:s];   // Show the controller //[self presentModalViewController:twitter animated:YES]; UIViewController* rootVC = g_getRootViewController(); [rootVC presentModalViewController:twitter animated:YES];   // Called when the tweet dialog has been closed twitter.completionHandler = ^(TWTweetComposeViewControllerResult result) { NSString *title = <a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Tweet%20Status" rel="nofollow">@Tweet Status</a>; NSString *msg;   if (result == TWTweetComposeViewControllerResultCancelled) msg = <a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Tweet%20compostion%20was%20canceled." rel="nofollow">@Tweet compostion was canceled.</a>; else if (result == TWTweetComposeViewControllerResultDone) msg = <a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Tweet%20composition%20completed." rel="nofollow">@Tweet composition completed.</a>;   // Show alert to see how things went... UIAlertView* alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:title message:msg delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:<a href="https://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Okay" rel="nofollow">@Okay</a> otherButtonTitles:nil]; [alertView show];   // Dismiss the controller [rootVC dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES]; }; }

In the GameKit class, below the void dispatchEvent() function add the following

void tweet(int score){ [helper tweet:score]; }

add the next function above the static int loader(lua_State* L) function

static int tweet(lua_State* L) { GameKit* gamekit = getInstance(L, 1); int score = luaL_checkint(L, 2);     gamekit->tweet(score); return 0; }

in the const luaL_Reg functionlist[] add the following

{"tweet",tweet},

In your LUA code call the function from a button or something like so

gamekit:tweet(1000)

Takes less than 5 minutes to set up

Enjoy.

@fawzma Are you using ARC? If not, then you're leaking memory in a couple of places…

fawzma

Yeah, it's mentioned on that site

Is there a way for this to work on android?

fawzma

Not this, need to use the twitter api.

@fawzma Nice!!

Might check for iOS5 and add some autorelease where using [alloc] code for non ARC.

// check for iOS 5 Twitter integration
Class tweeterClassExists = NSClassFromString(@”TWTweetComposeViewController”);
if(tweeterClassExists != nil) {

// do the twitter

}
