I am trying to store and retrieve binary objects from swift using jclouds.openstack.swift API
Question: How to download objects using ranges.
For example:
swiftApi = ContextBuilder.newBuilder(provider)
.endpoint("....")
.credentials(identity, credentials)
.modules(modules)
.buildApi(SwiftApi.class);
final ObjectApi objectApi =
swiftApi.objectApiInRegionForContainer(REGION, CONTAINER);
GetOptions getOptions =
GetOptions.Builder.range(0,10).range(100, 200);
SwiftObject obj = objectApi.get(OBJECT_NAME, getOptions);
Payload payload = obj.getPayload();
// ????? I expected a binary stream but i get something else
payload2.openStream()
When i dump the stream as string i see headers and mime parts arriving but i don't understand how to access the data
jclouds 1.7.2 does not support this and I reported JCLOUDS-575 to track this issue.
