public class TIFFTagSet
extends Object
A class representing a set of TIFF tags. Each tag in the set must have a unique number (this is a limitation of the TIFF specification itself).

This class and its subclasses are responsible for mapping between raw tag numbers and TIFFTag objects, which contain additional information about each tag, such as the tag's name, legal data types, and mnemonic names for some or all of its data values.

constructor:TIFFTagSet(java.util.List) [NONE]

  • TIFFTagSet

    public TIFFTagSet?(List<TIFFTag> tags)
    Constructs a TIFFTagSet, given a List of TIFFTag objects.
    Parameters:
    tags - a List object containing TIFFTag objects to be added to this tag set.

    IllegalArgumentException - if tags is null, or contains objects that are not instances of the TIFFTag class.

method:getTag(int) [NONE]

  • getTag

    public TIFFTag getTag?(int tagNumber)
    Returns the TIFFTag from this set that is associated with the given tag number, or null if no tag exists for that number.
    Parameters:
    tagNumber - the number of the tag to be retrieved.
    Returns:
    the numbered TIFFTag, or null.

    • method:getTag(java.lang.String) [NONE]

    getTag

    public TIFFTag getTag?(String tagName)
    Returns the TIFFTag having the given tag name, or null if the named tag does not belong to this tag set.
    Parameters:
    tagName - the name of the tag to be retrieved, as a String.
    Returns:
    the named TIFFTag, or null.
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - if tagName is null.

    method:getTagNumbers() [NONE]

    getTagNumbers

    public SortedSet<Integer> getTagNumbers()
    Retrieves an unmodifiable numerically increasing set of tag numbers.

    The returned object is unmodifiable and contains the tag numbers of all TIFFTags in this TIFFTagSet sorted into ascending order according to Comparable.compareTo(Object).

    Returns:
    All tag numbers in this set.

    method:getTagNames() [NONE]

    getTagNames

    public SortedSet<String> getTagNames()
    Retrieves an unmodifiable lexicographically increasing set of tag names.

    The returned object is unmodifiable and contains the tag names of all TIFFTags in this TIFFTagSet sorted into ascending order according to Comparable.compareTo(Object).

    Returns:
    All tag names in this set.
