In the progress of coding my school project that does some Twitter data mining and thus I needed a Twitter API for Java to get searches done easily. The first one I found was java-twitter. After some difficulty, I managed to get the dependencies sorted out, since the java-twitter page is slightly outdated and doesn't mention versions of the dependencies.

Java Twitter API version 0.9 is the one I am using.

Here is a comprehensive list with version numbers:

• Guava 0.9
• Protocol Buffers 2.1
• Joda Time 1.6.2
• JSON lib 2.4
• Commons HTTPClient 3.1
• Commons Logging 1.1.1
• Commons Codec 1.4
• Commons Lang 2.2
• EZMorph 1.0.6
• Commons Collections 3.2.1
• Commons Beanutils 1.8.3

Any other more recent and good Twitter API's for Java out there?

UPDATE: As suggested in comments, Twitter4J is an excellent, easy to use more up to date Java package. Using that now :) Get it here: http://twitter4j.org/en/index.html
