Well, actually, roadventer, no I don’t know exactly what ‘this’ is but thats probably why I’m asking other people. Maybe the fact that paulc’s answer helped me a lot, and that I’m not allowed to promote my site on here so I decided not to post a link to it or mention what it is limits my ability to question- this is merely a starting block, whereas you expect everyone to be halfway down the pool before they start.
You’ll notice that I used the words ’go about creating’ which doesn’t necessarily determine the exact form and function of an API, merely the steps I could to go towards to make it, people can ask others questions like “How do I get to town”, but you wouldn’t give them directions from halfway. If I had said ‘How do I create an API’ then your claims would be justified, but they’re not so shut your mouth.
This question makes perfect sense and you are a dipshit. If you’re so smart and know so much about API’s, why don’t you offer something worthwhile to the conversation- not some smart arse comment about how the question isn’t specific enough for you.
Oh look, 5 Great Answer points for paulc, maybe the question was worth answering after all. You’ll notice his first sentence addresses the question perfectly.
PS. I’m grumpy today, please excuse my ranting.
