I have just completed integrating an application with the Fed Ex Shipping API :ill:. I have never come across an API as undocumented and poorly supported by its creators, but after wading through their 300+ page manual (which explains nothing in practical terms) and spending 2 full days hammering away at writing code, I have finally managed to pull it off. The side effect is a slight feeling of dizziness, fatigue and I feel like I'm going nuts :crazy:

If any GTP'ers write code and need help with Fed Ex Services at some point, give me a shout, will be happy to give some support.

Anyways, it got me thinking 💡, are there any other coders at GT Planet and if so, what's the most nightmarish code you have had to write?
