Hi,

I've been given 6 bits of information to access some data from a website:

Website Json Url (eg: http://somesite.com/items/list.json)
OAuth Authorization Url (eg: http://somesite.com/oauth/authorization)
OAuth Request Url (eg: http://somesite.com/oauth/request)
OAuth Access Url (eg: http://somesite.com/oauth/access)
Client Key (eg: 12345678)
Client Secret (eg: abcdefghijklmnop)

Now, I've looked at DotNetOpenAuth and OAuth.NET libraries, and while I'm sure they are very capable of doing what I need, I just can't figure out how to use either in this way.

Could someone post some sample code of how to consume the Url (Point 1.) in either library (or any other way that may work just as well)?

Thanks!

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
