Incorrect signature on photos_upload

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When calling 

public T photos_upload( Long userId, String caption, Long albumId, String
fileName, InputStream fileStream )

With a userId specified, an incorrect signature exception is thrown.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 2.1.1

Please provide any additional information below.

I tried calling the method with a null userId. This seems to work.

On investigation it looks like the session ID is not being included in the
signature when you include a userId (the method PHOTOS_UPLOAD_NOSESSION is
called instead of PHOTOS_UPLOAD).

Incidentally the app is a desktop application, generating the secret key
using the recommended method on the Wiki.

Just looked at the Facebook API. It says of the uid parameter:

"This parameter applies only to Web applications and is required by them only 
if the
session_key is not specified. Facebook ignores this parameter if it is passed 
by a
desktop application."

Perhaps the uid parameter should be ignored if the app is in desktop mode?

Sounds reasonable. Link to API page where you saw that quote, please.

It's on the wiki for photos.upload:
