In our movie app we want to build an HTTP request using OKHttp( Treehttp had some bugs). Create a new oKHttpClient variable and initialize it using the default constructor
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class MovieActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
// Get some movie information!
String apiUrl = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies.json?apikey=xyz&q=hobbit";
okHttpClient client = new okHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder().url("http://publicobject.com/helloword.text").build();
}
}

Treehouse TeacherHi there! You're doing great, but you have a couple of typos. The capitalization is incorrect on the OkHttpClient. You've typed okHttpClient with a lower case "o". That should be an upper case "O".
Give it another shot with the correct capitalization. Hope this helps!

OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder().url(apiUrl ).build();
