Incomplete Streaming of tweets about hbc HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi,
I'm not affiliated to Twitter and/or the maintainers of this repo, but I faced the same problem as developer. The problem seems to be related to retweets, because in theory they might be longer than the usual 140 characters, as they also contain the RT@<<user's screenName>>: part in front of the original tweet, but in reality they seem to be truncated at the end to get a length <= 140 characters. I solved it by checking isRetweet() in the listener which processes the tweets and if yes, using
"RT @" + status.getRetweetedStatus().getUser().getScreenName() + ": " + status.getRetweetedStatus().getText() instead of status.getText()

@Jakob2014uafmx Thats a nice little hack!

Does anybody know how to actually add a parameter to the streamhandler so you send full_text for example?

Extended Tweets in the Streaming API will contain an extended_tweet segment containing a full_text field.
