Please review at your convenience: Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8149560 Patch: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8149560/webrev.00/
Summary: 1) Change the specification of createFromMetadataNode() to change the tag number attribute name from “tagNumber” to “number” in accord with the javax_imageio_tiff_image_1.0 native image metadata format specification. 2) Add a couple of @throws clauses to clarify exceptions which might ensure from a bad node parameter’s being passed in to createFromMetadataNode().
