Google calendar API OAUTH

I'm trying to make a Java app (stand alone not web based) that connects to Google calendar but im having issues getting past the OAuth stage. I have looked over every part of the Google API i can see.

The newest version i can find is at https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/instantiate

I have downloaded the 2 sets of JAR files they say to (google-api-services-calendar-v3-rev3-1.5.0-beta and gdata-samples.java-1.46.0) and imported the required libraries and dependencies. This gives me deprication errors for about half the classes and some methods (mainly new Calendar(httpTransport, accessProtectedResource, jsonFactory);) dont work at all.

Has anyone got a basic example of getting an OAuth token and accessing the Google Calendar API? Am i looking at this the wrong way or am i using an out of date copy of the api?

Is gdata still in use or has it been replaced? Thanks Adrian

I have no idea why the code is listed wrong in the documentation. The line below worked for me.

Calendar(httpTransport, jsonFactory, accessProtectedResource);

You need to first get oauth working then use oauth to call some google api for example calendar.

Start from google oauth 1 for installed app or google oauth 2 for installed app or search for "google oauth installed app". Scrib is a good oauth lib for Java.
