So, I got tired of doing everything by hand and started making a java program to do my dirty work for me.

The program basically is supposed to calculate the value of selling any amount of ore entered on the market and the value of the processed components for comparison.

Currently, the program I wrote requires me to input local details in myself... Which is fine I guess. But, I would prefer to have my program pick up market data for a specified region so that it automatically inputs ore prices and refined prices too.

So, was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for some API or code to complete this.

Ultimately, with this program, I want to have it where I just enter in my region and ore hold amount to immediately know how much money I can make off of each and every ore both by selling and by processing it... With just being able to simply look. No other math Etc. involved. Literally bold green text pretty much sayings go mine this now.

As a reward for the help, anyone that posts information that is useful in this project or points me in the right direction, I will freely give a copy of this program to.

And so you know I am legit, in one day I have already wrote half the code. Also am a programmer by profession.

Thanks all!

http://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/ore/ might be of interest, though it sounds like you're wanting something different.


While this is for PHP rather than java, the principle is sound.

Thanks. I am out right now. Will look into it tomorrow. If it is exactly what I need, will literally share with you the second I got the program. If it is not.... A little after. I won't release publicly.
