Twitter Application Setup and Updating Twitter Status (Tweeting)

[DonaldsonTest]

Hello everyone, I have been assigned the task of making it possible to update my twitter status using the OAuth tool (programming in java using the twitter4j library in Eclipse)…but I have been trying at it for the last couple of days and I have ran into a few problems so I want to make sure to establish the information needed correctly.

First: The application creation: I am new to this OAuth tool and the whole application creation using the dev.twitter.com tools. First I am confused as to what my settings should be for the application when I create it, like what my website name should be?(I just put a random website, because I don’t actually have the application on the web I am just running the code) and what should the CallbackURL (Have no idea whether I need this or not) be? All I am trying to do is write java code using Eclipse and the twitter4j library than running it to update my twitter status something like this:

import twitter4j.Twitter;

import twitter4j.TwitterException;
import twitter4j.TwitterFactory;
import twitter4j.auth.OAuthAuthorization;
import twitter4j.conf.ConfigurationBuilder;

public class TwitterTest {
        private static final String ACCESS_TOKEN = "MY ACCESS_TOKEN";
        private static final String ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = "MY ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET";
        private static final String CONSUMER_KEY = "MY CONSUMER_KEY";
        private static final String CONSUMER_SECRET = "MY CONSUMER_SECRET";

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
        builder.setOAuthAccessToken(ACCESS_TOKEN);
        builder.setOAuthAccessTokenSecret(ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET);
        builder.setOAuthConsumerKey(CONSUMER_KEY);
        builder.setOAuthConsumerSecret(CONSUMER_SECRET);
        OAuthAuthorization auth = new OAuthAuthorization(builder.build());
        Twitter twitter = new TwitterFactory().getInstance(auth);
		try {
			twitter.updateStatus("Hello World!");
		} catch (TwitterException e) {
			System.err.println("Error occurred while updating the status!");
			return;
		}
        System.out.println("Successfully updated the status.");
    }
}

So if anyone could help me as to how to actually get it to where I can just put in my Keys/Secret Codes in the code above and then run the code and make it update my status (tweet) Hello World! on my twitter account that would be great!

    twitter.updateStatus("We have to move towards heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");

} catch (TwitterException e) {

}

It is unwise to post your consumer key and secret here, as well as access token details. You should reset your application keys right away.
