L_LTFIL_API L_INT L_ReadFileExtensions(pszFile, ppExtensionList, pLoadOptions)

L_TCHAR* pszFile;	/* file name */
pEXTENSIONLIST* ppExtensionList;	/* pointer to a pointer to a structure */
pLOADFILEOPTION pLoadOptions;	/* pointer to optional extended load options */

Loads extensions from the specified Exif file. Please note that not all Exif files have extensions.

Parameter	Description
pszFile	Character string containing Exif file name.
ppExtensionList	Pointer to a pointer to an EXTENSIONLIST structure to be updated with the extensions read from the specified Exif file.
pLoadOptions	Pointer to optional extended load options. Pass NULL to use the default load options.

Returns

>=0	Length of the comment field.
< 0	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Currently, this function works only with Exif files. Exif files can contain extra data stored as "FlashPix extensions". This function can be used to access this extra data. LEADTOOLS refers to this extra data as "extensions".

The L_LoadExtensionStamp function can be used to load a stamp from the extension and L_GetExtensionAudio can be used to get embedded audio data.

When the memory allocated by this function is no longer needed, call L_FreeExtensions to free the memory.
