twitter connection needs to be closed?

Question

i developed an aplication built on twitter api , but i get erorrs like a mesage that i've parsed and deleted to be parsed again at the next execution , could that be because i left the twitter connection opened or is just a fault of the twitter API. I also tried to delete all direct messages because it seemed too full for me but instead the Api has just reset the count of my messages , the messages haven't been deleted:((

Answer 1

Twitter's API is over HTTP, which is a stateless protocol. you don't really need to close the connection, since connections made and closed for each request
