Please move away from the deperacated Java Rackspace Swift Library #5

Description

@davidc0le

The Java library you are using currently for Swift interaction is outdated and has issues when working with non-Rackspace swift clusters. In particular the Java cloud files library does not support v2.0 authentication properly.

Cyberduck (http://cybderduck.io) ran into these issues with the official (now deprecated cloud files library). When Rackspace showed no interest in continuing development in their library, a fork was created which fixes the authentication issues and has many other benefits. The fork is available at https://github.com/dkocher/java-cloudfiles

Rackspace point users to jclouds as a replacement for their library, which is indeed good. It is however a gigantic, multi-function, multi-cloud library. The fork above follows the UNIX paradigm of doing one thing well.
