Talk:LinkedIn: Viewing Connections using Hammock

Hamishwillee - Thanks for this article

Hi Vaishali

Looks pretty good. As a point for your future article titles, please avoid using "colons" - to mediawiki these look like a namespace - e.g. instead off "Linked in: Viewing Connections Using Hammock" you might have "Viewing Linked-in connections using Hammock. For categories I've added "Web Services" for the "technology"

Just for my information, would it be correct to say that Hammock is used for the authentication (not shown here) and for making the REST request for the connections? (RestRequest()

Thanks!

Vaishali Rawat - Answer for you

Dear Hamish,

Thanks very much for your feedback.

Yes, Hammock is used for authentication and making the REST requests. It just provides an abstraction so that you as a developer don't require to play in detail with the clumsy OAuth structure.

Hamishwillee - Thanks for the clarification

... and the article!

It might be worth making the above clarification in the introduction so its clear why Hammock is useful in this case.

Dear Hamish,

Introduced the usage of Hammock in the article as per you suggested. Please check it once. Though I had already mentioned it in my first Hammock related article i.e. http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Twitter:_OAuth_1.0_Authentication_using_Hammock but done it here too.

Regards,

Vaishali
