$file->getWebContentLink() is mostly empty

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Example:

$file = $this->service->files->get($fileID);

$newPermission = new Google_Permission();
$newPermission->setValue('');
$newPermission->setType('anyone');
$newPermission->setRole('reader');
$newPermission->setWithLink(true);

try {
$this->service->permissions->insert($file->getId(), $newPermission);        
        } 
catch (Exception $e) {
            echo "An error occurred: " . $e->getMessage();
        }

if ($file->getMimeType() === 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder')
   $url = $file->getWebViewLink(); <--- empty. Tested with print_r($file);
else
   $url = $file->getWebContentLink();

I fixed this Bug with following code, but it´s not that elegant.
$url = 'https://drive.google.com/folderview?id='.$fileID.'&usp=sharing';

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.6.7

moved to GitHub with the release of the 1.0.0-alpha, and now the 1.0 branch has 
reached beta status there will be no further releases of the 0.6 branch of the 
library. 

Please take a look at the latest version on 
https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client

For information on migrating, please take a look at this guide: 
https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/php/guide/migration

For general library support please ask a question on StackOverflow:

If you are looking for support with a specific API, please contact the team 
working with that API via StackOverflow or their preferred support mechanism. 

If your issue still exists with the new version of the library, please raise a 
bug in the GitHub issue tracker with a minimal code sample. 

Thanks!
