virtual int setDataArea (const byte *buf, long len)
 Set the data area, if the value has one by copying (cloning) the buffer pointed to by buf. More...
 
TypeId typeId () const
 Return the type identifier (Exif data format type).
 
AutoPtr clone () const
 Return an auto-pointer to a copy of itself (deep copy). The caller owns this copy and the auto-pointer ensures that it will be deleted.
 
std::string toString () const
 Return the value as a string. Implemented in terms of write(std::ostream& os) const of the concrete class.
 
virtual std::string toString (long n) const
 Return the n-th component of the value as a string. The default implementation returns toString(). The behaviour of this method may be undefined if there is no n-th component.
 
virtual long sizeDataArea () const
 Return the size of the data area, 0 if there is none.
 
virtual DataBuf dataArea () const
 Return a copy of the data area if the value has one. The caller owns this copy and DataBuf ensures that it will be deleted. More...
 
bool ok () const
 Check the ok status indicator. After a to<Type> conversion, this indicator shows whether the conversion was successful.
 

Accessors

std::string value_
 Stores the string values.
 
AutoPtr clone () const
 
long size () const
 Return the size of the value in bytes.
 
virtual long count () const
 Return the number of components of the value.
 
virtual long toLong (long n=0) const
 Convert the value to a long. The optional parameter n is not used and is ignored. More...
 
virtual float toFloat (long n=0) const
 Convert the value to a float. The optional parameter n is not used and is ignored. More...
 
virtual Rational toRational (long n=0) const
 Convert the value to a Rational. The optional parameter n is not used and is ignored. More...
 
virtual std::ostream & write (std::ostream &os) const
 Write the value to an output stream. You do not usually have to use this function; it is used for the implementation of the output operator for Value, operator<<(std::ostream &os, const Value &value).

Detailed Description

Value type suitable for simple XMP properties and XMP nodes of complex types which are not parsed into specific values.

Uses a std::string to store the value.

Examples
xmpsample.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ read() [1/2]

virtual int Exiv2::XmpValue::read

Read the value from a character buffer.

Uses read(const std::string& buf)

Note
The byte order is required by the interface but not used by this method, so just use the default.
Parameters
bufPointer to the data buffer to read from
lenNumber of bytes in the data buffer
byteOrderByte order. Not needed.
Returns
0 if successful.

◆ read() [2/2]

virtual int Exiv2::XmpTextValue::read ( const std::string &  buf)
virtual

Read a simple property value from buf to set the value.

Sets the value to the contents of buf. A optional keyword, type is supported to set the XMP value type. This is useful for complex value types for which Exiv2 does not have direct support.

The format of buf is:
[type=["]Alt|Bag|Seq|Struct["] ]text

Returns
0 if successful.

Implements Exiv2::XmpValue.

◆ toFloat()

virtual float Exiv2::XmpTextValue::toFloat ( long  n = 0) const
virtual

Convert the value to a float. The optional parameter n is not used and is ignored.

Returns
The converted value.

Implements Exiv2::Value.

◆ toLong()

virtual long Exiv2::XmpTextValue::toLong ( long  n = 0) const
virtual

Convert the value to a long. The optional parameter n is not used and is ignored.

Returns
The converted value.

Implements Exiv2::Value.

◆ toRational()

virtual Rational Exiv2::XmpTextValue::toRational ( long  n = 0) const
virtual

Convert the value to a Rational. The optional parameter n is not used and is ignored.

Returns
The converted value.

Implements Exiv2::Value.
