How to upgrade from Twitter BasicAuth to Oauth in my iPhone Application.

Another question is:

This (Oauth) should not change the UI of my application. means when user clicks on twitter button it should ask user name and password every time, and if we click on send button it should send tweets to twitter.

i implemented the Oauth but it is asking the username and password one time.

Answer 1

I suggest you check out MGTwitterEngine on GitHub. This library wraps up the Twitter API nicely and does the OAuth stuff as well.

You don't need to ask you user for their username and password every time. You can get their credentials initially and then store the access token you get back from Twitter (or from MGTwitterEngine if you choose to use that library) and use that for next time.

MGTwitterEngine wraps up the access token with an OAToken object which does the persistence for you.
