[jira] [Commented] (JCLOUDS-1411) StorageType not maintained by filesystem BlobStore

["Andrew Gaul (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-1411?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16674210#comment-16674210 ] 

Andrew Gaul commented on JCLOUDS-1411:
--------------------------------------

Why do you want to create a blob with type {{FOLDER}}?  Prefix and delimiter have superseded directories in jclouds so can you change your application to use those instead?  For what it is worth, other blobstores have native support for prefix and delimiter and never really supported directories.

> The directory related methods on BlobStore are deprecated, so I am trying to update to the new directory-less scheme. However, when I do the following, 
> {code:java}
> Blob dirBlob = blobStore.blobBuilder("some/path/").type(StorageType.FOLDER).build();
> blobStore.putBlob(containerName, dirBlob);
> BlobMetadata fetchedMeta = blobStore.blobMetadata(containterName, "some/path/");
> StorageType fetchedType = fetchedMeta.getType();{code}
> {{fetchedType}} (BLOB) does not match the type on {{dirBlob (FOLDER)}}. 
> One place this causes problems is when these directories appear as normal blobs when doing a \{{BlobStore.list()}}
