Description
I'm using the "last stable version" of Apache Sanselan 0.97 in an Android project (app). I have not upgraded to Commons Imaging yet, since the website says there is no stable release yet. Meanwhile, there are bugs in Sanselan.
If I run the sample code method WriteExifMetadataExample.changeExifMetadata on an image, which updates the Apterture and GPS tags, the resulting image fails to validate (through Phil Harvey's ExifTool software):
> exiftool.exe -validate -error -warning -a "..\20171030_21481_COPY.jpg" Validate : 19 Warnings (17 minor) Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD0 tag 0x010f Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD0 tag 0x011a Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD0 tag 0x011b Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD0 tag 0x0131 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD0 tag 0x0132 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x829a Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x829d Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x9003 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x9004 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x9202 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x9205 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x920a Warning : [minor] Odd offset for ExifIFD tag 0x9286 Warning : Non-standard count (1) for GPS tag 0x0001 GPSLatitudeRef Warning : [minor] Odd offset for GPS tag 0x0002 Warning : Non-standard count (1) for GPS tag 0x0003 GPSLongitudeRef Warning : [minor] Odd offset for GPS tag 0x0004 Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD1 tag 0x011a Warning : [minor] Odd offset for IFD1 tag 0x011b
I need some advice on how to proceed here. Since Sanselan does not appear to do what it should (even on very basic metadata editing), am I correct to assume that the current version of Commons Imaging does a better job?
