Twitter Search Client on iOS

Migrated a very simple Twitter Search REST client to iOS today for Developer Direct. Here is a screenshot.

Migrated a very simple Twitter Search REST client to iOS today for Developer Direct. The application has a VCL version, a FireMonkey version, and now an iOS version. All forms and user interfaces are different, but the bulk of the code is in a shared data module. The form passed to this data module an anonymous method with the code to populate the UI.

Here is a screenshot from the iPad simulator, just to give you an idea. The user interface is indeed quite ugly, but it took me around 3 minutes to have this done:

Marco,

You should mention what version of RAD Studio you have
used to do this. I have a suspicion but I rather you
say it.

Cheers,

Alan

It was a very impressive demo you presented this day on Developer 
Direct. A very good example of using "old" code in the new iOS interface! 
Bravo! Is your code available for downloading btw?

Alan, good point, I left it impliciti. I'm using the current Delphi for iOS 
beta. But 90% of the code comes form an old VCL application.

Hi Marco - thanks for the post, I've searched high and
low for a native Delphi Twitter oauth example - could
you perhaps share your code?
