How to get Jpeg Properties from a jpg file?

[Bryan Anslow]

I have a simple (I hope) question. I have a disk full of jpg images and just want to pull the jpeg attributes from the file, resolution, etc. The current program, in C++/MFC, looks for duplicate files, and I want to add a pop-up with jpeg info. I looked at the ImageFormat class and also jpegLib, but they seem more concerned with manipulating the image data itself, rather than the attributes. If anyone can suggest a starting point that would be great. Also, if anyone knows of anything to pull the EXIF properties from the file, that would be just excellent. Thanks in advance, Bryan.

i think GDI+ will let you get all that stuff. our libs will do it, too...

this[^] is what gets used to obtain a specific image property (e.g. JPEG EXIF field) when using .NET; and I expect it is based directly on similar capabilities inside GDI+. The mapping between items and item numbers I once found using Google... HTH
