Public Member Functions
Creators
	TiffHeaderBase (uint16_t tag, uint32_t size, ByteOrder byteOrder, uint32_t offset)
	Constructor taking tag, size and default byteOrder and offset.
virtual	~TiffHeaderBase ()=default
	Virtual destructor.
Manipulators
virtual bool	read (const byte *pData, size_t size)
	Read the image header from a data buffer. Return false if the data buffer does not contain an image header of the expected format, else true.
virtual void	setByteOrder (ByteOrder byteOrder)
	Set the byte order.
virtual void	setOffset (uint32_t offset)
	Set the offset to the start of the root directory.

Accessors
virtual DataBuf	write () const
	Return the image header in binary format. The caller owns this data and DataBuf ensures that it will be deleted.
virtual void	print (std::ostream &os, const std::string &prefix="") const
	Print debug info for the image header to os.
virtual ByteOrder	byteOrder () const
	Return the byte order (little or big endian).
virtual uint32_t	offset () const
	Return the offset to the start of the root directory.
virtual uint32_t	size () const
	Return the size (in bytes) of the image header.
virtual uint16_t	tag () const
	Return the tag value (magic number) which identifies the buffer as TIFF data.
virtual bool	isImageTag (uint16_t tag, IfdId group, const PrimaryGroups *pPrimaryGroups) const
	Return true if the Exif tag from group is an image tag.

Detailed Description

Contains internal objects which are not published and are not part of the libexiv2 API.

Abstract base class defining the interface of an image header. Used internally by classes for TIFF-based images. Default implementation is for the regular TIFF header.

Member Function Documentation

isImageTag()

bool Exiv2::Internal::TiffHeaderBase::isImageTag ( uint16_t  tag, IfdId  group, const PrimaryGroups *  pPrimaryGroups  ) const

virtual

Return true if the Exif tag from group is an image tag.

Certain tags of TIFF and TIFF-like images are required to correctly display the primary image. These image tags contain image data rather than metadata.

Parameters

tag	Tag number.
group	Group identifier.
pPrimaryGroups	Pointer to a list of TIFF groups that contain primary images, empty if none are marked.

Returns

The default implementation returns false.

Reimplemented in Exiv2::Internal::Cr2Header, and Exiv2::Internal::TiffHeader.

print()

void Exiv2::Internal::TiffHeaderBase::print ( std::ostream &  os, const std::string &  prefix = ""  ) const

virtual

Print debug info for the image header to os.

Parameters

os	Output stream to write to.
prefix	Prefix to be written before each line of output.

read()

bool Exiv2::Internal::TiffHeaderBase::read ( const byte *  pData, size_t  size  )

virtual

Read the image header from a data buffer. Return false if the data buffer does not contain an image header of the expected format, else true.

Parameters

pData	Pointer to the data buffer.
size	Number of bytes in the data buffer.

Returns

True if the TIFF header was read successfully. False if the data buffer does not contain a valid TIFF header.

Reimplemented in Exiv2::Internal::Cr2Header, and Exiv2::Internal::OrfHeader.

write()

DataBuf Exiv2::Internal::TiffHeaderBase::write ( ) const

virtual

Return the image header in binary format. The caller owns this data and DataBuf ensures that it will be deleted.

Returns

Binary header data.

Reimplemented in Exiv2::Internal::Cr2Header, Exiv2::Internal::OrfHeader, and Exiv2::Internal::Rw2Header.
