Inheritance diagram for Exiv2::TiffImage:

Public Member Functions
Creators
	TiffImage (BasicIo::UniquePtr io, bool create)
	Constructor that can either open an existing TIFF image or create a new image from scratch. If a new image is to be created, any existing data is overwritten. Since the constructor can not return a result, callers should check the good() method after object construction to determine success or failure. More...

Manipulators
void	readMetadata () override
	Read all metadata supported by a specific image format from the image. Before this method is called, the image metadata will be cleared. More...

void	writeMetadata () override
	Write metadata back to the image. More...

void	printStructure (std::ostream &out, PrintStructureOption option, size_t depth) override
	Print out the structure of image file. More...

void	setComment (const std::string &) override
	Not supported. TIFF format does not contain a comment. Calling this function will throw an Error(ErrorCode::kerInvalidSettingForImage).

Detailed Description

Class to access TIFF images. Exif metadata is supported directly, IPTC is read from the Exif data, if present.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ TiffImage()

Exiv2::TiffImage::TiffImage	(	BasicIo::UniquePtr	io,
		bool	create
	)

Constructor that can either open an existing TIFF image or create a new image from scratch. If a new image is to be created, any existing data is overwritten. Since the constructor can not return a result, callers should check the good() method after object construction to determine success or failure.

Parameters

io	An auto-pointer that owns a BasicIo instance used for reading and writing image metadata. Important: The constructor takes ownership of the passed in BasicIo instance through the auto-pointer. Callers should not continue to use the BasicIo instance after it is passed to this method. Use the Image::io() method to get a temporary reference.
create	Specifies if an existing image should be read (false) or if a new file should be created (true).

Member Function Documentation

◆ mimeType()

std::string Exiv2::TiffImage::mimeType ( ) const

overridevirtual

Return the MIME type of the image.

Note: For each supported image format, the library knows only one MIME type. This may not be the most specific MIME type for that format. In particular, several RAW formats are variants of the TIFF format with the same magic as TIFF itself. Class TiffImage handles most of them and thus they all have MIME type "image/tiff", although a more specific MIME type may exist (e.g., "image/x-nikon-nef").

Implements Exiv2::Image.

◆ printStructure()

void Exiv2::TiffImage::printStructure	(	std::ostream &	out,
		PrintStructureOption	option,
		size_t	depth
	)

overridevirtual

Print out the structure of image file.

Exceptions

Error if reading of the file fails or the image data is not valid (does not look like data of the specific image type).

Warning: This function is not thread safe and intended for exiv2 -p{S|R} as a file debugging aid

Reimplemented from Exiv2::Image.

◆ readMetadata()

void Exiv2::TiffImage::readMetadata ( )

overridevirtual

Read all metadata supported by a specific image format from the image. Before this method is called, the image metadata will be cleared.

This method returns success even if no metadata is found in the image. Callers must therefore check the size of individual metadata types before accessing the data.

Exceptions

Error if opening or reading of the file fails or the image data is not valid (does not look like data of the specific image type).

Implements Exiv2::Image.

◆ writeMetadata()

void Exiv2::TiffImage::writeMetadata ( )

overridevirtual

Write metadata back to the image.

All existing metadata sections in the image are either created, replaced, or erased. If values for a given metadata type have been assigned, a section for that metadata type will either be created or replaced. If no values have been assigned to a given metadata type, any exists section for that metadata type will be removed from the image.

Exceptions

Error if the operation fails
