Project Description

Exiv2 is a C++ library and a command line utility for managing image metadata. It provides fast and easy read and write access to the Exif, IPTC, and XMP metadata of images in many formats. The Exiv2 command line utility prints Exif, IPTC, and XMP metadata including Makernote tags in various formats, adjusts Exif timestamps, renames images according to the Exif timestamp, extracts and inserts Exif, IPTC, and XMP metadata and JPEG comments, or deletes the thumbnail or a specific type of metadata from an image.

0.9.1

This release fixes a bug that could cause an invalid Exif user comment tag to be written to an image. This happened only in "intrusive write mode", e.g., if the image didn't contain a user comment yet.

This release adds support for Canon RAW files
(read-only for now). Canon THM format is also
supported, since that is the same as JPEG. Other
improvements are mostly bugfixes to make Exiv2
handle various (more or less) exceptional
situations more gracefully.

0.6.2

This release adds an option to run metadata modify
commands directly from the command line. Other
enhancements were also made to the Exiv2 utility.
The build environment now uses GNU Libtool for
correct (shared) library generation on various
platforms, and has an improved installation
routine. The Exiv2 library can now deal with Exif
data with non-standard IFDs (as created by
programs such as GraphicConverter for Mac).
