Arduino Uno with Adafruit CC3000

The HttpClient object must be instantiated with a Client object which will handle the underlying connection. Source:

Requires a networking hardware and a library that provides transport specific Client instance, such as:

Refer to the following code:

• https://github.com/arduino-libraries/ArduinoHttpClient/blob/master/examples/DweetGet/DweetGet.ino
• https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CC3000_Library/blob/master/Adafruit_CC3000.h#L86
• https://github.com/arduino-libraries/ArduinoHttpClient/blob/master/src/HttpClient.h#L51

In the above example, it is done like

WiFiClient wifi;
HttpClient client = HttpClient(wifi, serverAddress, port);

Which means that for your code, you might want to pull out client as global object and instantiate it as:

Adafruit_CC3000 cc3000 = Adafruit_CC3000(ADAFRUIT_CC3000_CS,    ADAFRUIT_CC3000_IRQ, ADAFRUIT_CC3000_VBAT,SPI_CLOCK_DIVIDER);
/* Create new Adafruit_CC3000_Client object */
Adafruit_CC3000_Client cc3000_client;
/* Feed this into the client */
HttpClient client (cc3000_client, "dweet.io", 80);

You should also use the example code to see how to print the response after executing client.get():

  // read the status code and body of the response
  statusCode = client.responseStatusCode();
  response = client.responseBody();
  Serial.print("Status code: ");
  Serial.println(statusCode);
  Serial.print("Response: ");
  Serial.println(response);

The example code is pretty much example what you want, you just have to give it a Adafruit_CC3000_Client as the Client.
