Query for an atom set of items. Sets include feed, label, and state.

States include:
read - A read item will have the state read
kept-unread - Once you've clicked on "keep unread", an item will have the state kept-unread
fresh - When a new item of one of your feeds arrive, it's labeled as fresh. When (need to find what remove fresh label), the fresh label disappear.
starred - When your mark an item with a star, you set it's starred state
broadcast - When your mark an item as being public, you set it's broadcast state
reading-list - All you items are flagged with the reading-list state. To see all your items, just ask for items in the state reading-list
tracking-body-link-used - Set if you ever clicked on a link in the description of the item.
tracking-emailed - Set if you ever emailed the item to someone.
tracking-item-link-used - Set if you ever clicked on a link in the description of the item.
tracking-kept-unread - Set if you ever mark your read item as unread.

The following query modifiers can be used
n - Number of items returns in a set of items (default 20)
client - The default client name
r - By default, items starts now, and go back time. You can change that by specifying this key to the value o (default value is d)
ot - The time (unix time, number of seconds from January 1st, 1970 00:00 UTC) from which to start to get items. Only works for order r=o mode. If the time is older than one month ago, one month ago will be used instead.
ck - current time stamp, probably used as a quick hack to be sure that cache won't be triggered.
xt - another set of items suffix, to be excluded from the query. For exemple, you can query all items from a feed that are not flagged as read. This value start with feed/ or user/, not with !http:// or www
c - a string used for continuation process. Each feed return not all items, but only a certain number of items. You'll find in the atom feed (under the name gr:continuation) a string called continuation. Just add that string as argument for this parameter, and you'll retrieve next items.

Example :
All the 17 first items items from xkcd.com main feed that are not read can be found on the url :
http://www.google.com/reader/atom/feed/http://xkcd.com/rss.xml?n=17&ck=1169900000&xt=user/-/state/com.google/read

image.php
parameters: img_url - the url of the image to be converted, starting with http://
img_max_w - the maximum width of the converted image, in pixels
img_max_h - the maximum height of the converted image, in pixels
img_out_format - JPEG, PNG, or GIF

Eclipse Error Preverifying Class

I kept getting an error in Eclipse: Error Preverifying Class in JSONArray.java. Sun's website (http://java.sun.com/products/sjwtoolkit/FAQ.html) revealed some useful info regarding the class libraries used in projects:

"If you get this error, you are probably using a class library that was written for Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE™ platform). This toolkit supports the development of MIDP applications, which have limited capabilities compared to their J2SE counterparts."

Turns out Eclipse was configured to use an older preverifier and was unaware of java.io.Writer. To fix this, I went to Window > Preferences > J2ME > Preverification > Use specific configuration > Connected Limited Device Configuration (1.1).

j2me authentication problem

There were several issues with google authentication

1) The parameters needed to be encoded , i learnt it from the Java Client LOGIN APi provided by google. THe Java source had to be ported for use in j2me. As some java classes were not available in j2me.

2) Here is the response of a guy from google. Who helped me find the problem
related with j2me.

Please remove the outputStream.flush() call. This call will cause
some j2me-enabled devices to use chunked encoding on the POST. The
ClientLogin service does not seem to like chunked encoding.

3) How he detected the bug

Used the POST being generated by this j2me program and used it
along with 'openssl s_client' and curl to investigate and perform some
trial and error. This led to the discovery of the chunked encoding
problem-- a quick search on the web led to the removal of the flush()
as a solution.
