An easy way to get Twitter authenticating with OAuth on iPhone

Twitter+OAuth Source and Example for iPhone

"Includes Twitter+OAuth code by Ben Gottlieb"

The goal of this was to create a drop-in code package for iPhone apps that want to access Twitter via OAuth. The main benefit here is that the source line on the Twitter page will say your app name, rather than "from web". 

This includes source taken from several other open frameworks, listed below. Most of the heavy lifting was all done by them, I just synthesized it into a (hopefully) easily digestible chunk.

I decided not to do the whole thing as a static library since most developers are already using Matt Gemmell's MGTwitterEngine, and there was no reason to duplicate code. It adds about 200k to the final size of your project, mainly due to the OAuth library.

Enjoy, and please let me know if you have any feedback!

Example:
Use the project in the Demo folder. You'll need to replace the strings in Demo/Src/OAuthTwitterDemoViewController.m with your own consumer key and consumer secret (visit  http://twitter.com/oauth_clients/new to obtain these).

Some code from this project was used to create the YHOATwitterEngine subclass of MGTwitterEngine.
Thanks Chris, you made this project a simple!

Isaiah's test app worked great on the Mac, but didn't make use of the PIN number passed back by Twitter, and also needed to be re-worked to work on the phone.
