org.jclouds.compute.domain.Image has "name" and "description" properties. "name" is Nullable but "description" isn't. This seems to be a little inconsistent, why should an Image description String be so strict about its contents if the name is completely ambivalent?
While this seems to be a pretty trivial matter the "openstack-nova" provider has no concept of an Image description, only a name. This is worked around by assigning the "openstack-nova" name to both the JClouds Image name and description. I'm experiencing an issue when the "openstack-nova" has a null name and tries to assign it to the currently NOT nullable description. I hope this makes sense :) You can merge this Pull Request by running: git pull https://github.com/joshvote/jclouds master Or you can view, comment on it, or merge it online at: https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/146 -- Commit Summary -- * Made the description in org.jclouds.compute.domain.Image nullable -- File Changes -- M compute/src/main/java/org/jclouds/compute/domain/Image.java (2) M compute/src/main/java/org/jclouds/compute/domain/ImageBuilder.java (4) M compute/src/main/java/org/jclouds/compute/domain/internal/ImageImpl.java (4) A compute/src/test/java/org/jclouds/compute/domain/ImageBuilderTest.java (42) -- Patch Links -- https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/146.patch https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/146.diff
