Twitter logIn exception

[dvasko]

Currently twitter-kit internally use:

retrofit = 'com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:1.6.1'
okHttp = 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp:2.0.0'
okHttpUrlConnection = 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp-urlconnection:2.0.0'

and with that setup everything work.

In my project i use:

compile('com.twitter.sdk.android:twitter:1.7.0@aar') {
    transitive = true;
}
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:1.9.0'
compile 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp-urlconnection:2.4.0'
compile 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp:2.4.0'

and with this setup i get exception on login:

com.twitter.sdk.android.core.TwitterApiException: method POST must have a request body.
        at retrofit.RestAdapter$RestHandler.invokeRequest(RestAdapter.java:400)
        at retrofit.RestAdapter$RestHandler.access$100(RestAdapter.java:220)

        at retrofit.Platform$Android$2$1.run(Platform.java:142)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:818)

some changes to POST have been made in okhttp 2.3.0 -> 2.4.0 that don't allow POST without request body.

@dvasko Thanks for the note. This is a known issue with okhttp/retrofit. See: square/retrofit#854

The following issues have been closed.
square/okhttp#751
square/retrofit#854

JakeWharton suggests to add an empty body with @Body String body and pass an empty string as a workaround.
Are you going to add any workaround for this issue?

[efrohnhoefer]

I believe the issue has been resolved in okhttp 2.5. We will likely be upgrading in the near future.

@efrohnhoefer
I checked okhttp / okhttp-urlconnection 2.5.0 in my project, but still having the same exception.

There's already version 1.11.0 released. Doesn't this issue fixed yet? Are there any workarounds?

TwitterKit was updated to v1.12.1. See changelog for more details.
