public sealed class PropertyItem
type PropertyItem = class
Public NotInheritable Class PropertyItem
Inheritance
PropertyItem

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to read and display the metadata in an image file using the PropertyItem class and the Image.PropertyItems property.

This example is designed to be used in a Windows Form that imports the System.Drawing.Imaging namespace. Paste the code into the form and change the path to fakePhoto.jpg to point to an image file on your system. Call the ExtractMetaData method when handling the form's Paint event, passing e as PaintEventArgs.

private:
   void ExtractMetaData( PaintEventArgs^ e )
   {
      try
      {
         
         // Create an Image object. 
         Image^ theImage = gcnew Bitmap( "c:\\fakePhoto.jpg" );
         
         // Get the PropertyItems property from image.
         array<PropertyItem^>^propItems = theImage->PropertyItems;
         
         // Set up the display.
         System::Drawing::Font^ font1 = gcnew System::Drawing::Font( "Arial",10 );
         SolidBrush^ blackBrush = gcnew SolidBrush( Color::Black );
         int X = 0;
         int Y = 0;
         
         // For each PropertyItem in the array, display the id, 
         // type, and length.
         int count = 0;
         System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum = propItems->GetEnumerator();
         while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
         {
            PropertyItem^ propItem = safe_cast<PropertyItem^>(myEnum->Current);
            e->Graphics->DrawString( String::Format( "Property Item {0}", count ), font1, blackBrush, (float)X, (float)Y );
            Y += font1->Height;
            e->Graphics->DrawString( String::Format( "   ID: 0x{0}", propItem->Id.ToString( "x" ) ), font1, blackBrush, (float)X, (float)Y );
            Y += font1->Height;
            e->Graphics->DrawString( String::Format( "   type: {0}", propItem->Type ), font1, blackBrush, (float)X, (float)Y );
            Y += font1->Height;
            e->Graphics->DrawString( String::Format( "   length: {0} bytes", propItem->Len ), font1, blackBrush, (float)X, (float)Y );
            Y += font1->Height;
            count += 1;
         }
         delete font1;
      }
      catch ( Exception^ )

         MessageBox::Show( "There was an error."
         "Make sure the path to the image file is valid." );

Remarks

The data consists of: an identifier, the length (in bytes) of the property, the property type, and a pointer to the property value.

A PropertyItem is not intended to be used as a stand-alone object. A PropertyItem object is intended to be used by classes that are derived from Image. A PropertyItem object is used to retrieve and to change the metadata of existing image files, not to create the metadata. Therefore, the PropertyItem class does not have a defined Public constructor, and you cannot create an instance of a PropertyItem object.

To work around the absence of a Public constructor, use an existing PropertyItem object instead of creating a new instance of the PropertyItem class. For more information, see Image.GetPropertyItem.

Properties

Id

Gets or sets the ID of the property.

Len
