Twitter api authentication flex mobile flash builder

Question

i'm making a mobile app in flash builder 4.6. The should show some tweets with specific hashtags. after a very long search i've finally found a document that helped me. I'm using this guide http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/flex/articles/twitter-trends/build-first-mobile-flex-app.pdf But it uses the older version of the twitter API. Now it needs authorization. And I'm totaly new to flash builder so I don't get where I have to do this (in which file) or what I should type there...

We've solved it ,

this is an example of how our source code looks like in which we authorize the api and get/show the tweets.
