Since I mainly access the API using Java, thats what I'll be blogging about. I am most definitely not an expert java programmer, but I am getting very good at reading the Javadoc.
If I post something which is incorrect or something which could be made more efficient somehow, post a comment. I really don't have a problem with criticism of any kind. Even cruel criticism has something to be learned from and since you get a finite number of days allocated to you, any day you don't learn something is one of those days wasted.

What I'm going to do here first is set up two new classes which will provide us with APIRequestHeader objects when we need them....

I've just managed to do something I'm fairly proud of. Its probably fairly small beans to a lot of folk, but it took me ages to figure out and I'm fairly chuffed with myself.
I'm writing a bot (aren't we all!) and I've taken a bit of a leap into the unknown with some of the techniques I'm using. For example, I've created some custom components to show my data. Not all that groundbreaking really, but since the aim of my bot is for me to start it up and walk away from it, but still...
