Send a tweet from an iPhone app - iphone

What is the best way to tweet from an iPhone app?
I know there are some libraries to integrate twitter in an iPhone app like MGTwitterEngine, do I really need it just to sent a tweet?
And what is OAuth? is MGTwitterEngine already include OAuth??
Can someone tell me what are the steps I need to do from start?
The app is for ios 4, so using the new twitter framework in ios 5 is not good for me..

If you are using iOS 5 there is a whole Twitter Framework built in. Otherwise you will have to use a third party library to do this.
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Twitter/Reference/TwitterFrameworkReference/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40011014
UPDATE
Please also do note that Apple will no longer accept anything that can not run on iPhone 5, so you will have to be use iOS 6 SDK or later anyway

Integrating Twitter into iOS 4.3+ App

I'm trying to integrate Twitter with my App right now. I have successfully set up the iOS 5 TWTweetComposeViewController, but this does not work on iOS 4.3. What's the best method to also integrate Twitter posting into iOS 4.3?
DETweetComposeViewController
Open source. Mimics TWTweetComposeViewController. Works with iOS 4 and later.
Sharekit is a framework that may help you to setup Twitter on iOS version pre 5. If you take a first look at Sharekit, it may look like you only can use it as a complete framework. But read on: you can use any of the fractions (Twitter, Facebook etc) of Sharekit to connect with your own GUI.
Use a custom library and implement the tweet screens yourself. Alternatively you could redirect the user to a twitter:// URL which will open the Twitter application, or just open a Web Intent. http://dev.twitter.com
