Hi, I am writing a photo-album type of an application for BeOS (R5) using GFL SDK v2.20. I have problems getting IPTC tags with LoadIPTC(). For instance, this will always return NumberOfItems ==0 the funny thing is GetIPTCData after LoadBitmap works! ??? Any ideas?

Code: Select all

        BPath path(&entref);
	GFL_IPTC_DATA *iptc;
	iptc = gflLoadIPTC(path.Path());
	if (iptc && iptc->NumberOfItems) 
                //TODO...

Hum, the 2.20 has some problem with IPTC

I see... this could be it I could get IPTC tags with GetIPTCData, of course, but I do not want to load a bitmap again, because I am using BeOS native image translators, so that would be 100% overhead.
