Metadata edition not working for swift

[pedroperez]

When trying to edit metadata information for a swift file a got "unable to find valid certification path to request target" for custom attributes.

Also when adding fixed attributes like Cache-Control, Expires, etc they are not saved and do not appears after refreshing the metadata.

The update method does not take the custom trust manager into account. Bug in cloudfiles library.

Replying to pedroperez:

Also when adding fixed attributes like Cache-Control, Expires, etc they are not saved and do not appears after refreshing the metadata.

This is an additional user interface issue. You have to change the default value set that the attribute is written to the server.

You can test the fix in the latest build now available.
