Method Detail

readDirEntry

public void readDirEntry(DataInputStream dstream,
                         int length)
                  throws IOException

Reads a directory entry, starting at the position after the APP8 marker and length. If the entry is for a thumbnail, create a Property for that thumbnail and add it to the thumbnail list. Other tags provide interesting information, some of which should go into properties, but for the moment we just handle the thumbnail and ignore other tags. An APP8 segment which is in a SPIFF file, and isn't the first APP8 segment (file header), is presumed to be a directory entry. These directory entries are a little inconvenient, because they can contain offsets to data in what we otherwise handle as a stream format. The offsets can be either to data within the block, or to faraway indirect data blocks. For the present version, we ignore offset data, which seems to be used only for the actual image bits (e.g., TNDATA).

Throws:

IOException

appendThumbnailProps

public void appendThumbnailProps(List imageList)

Appends any thumbnail properties that have been collected to the provided list.
