--------------------------------------

             Summary: Imaging (Apache Sanselan) produces "odd offsets" in 
(EXIF) metadata
                 Key: IMAGING-205
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAGING-205
             Project: Commons Imaging
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: imaging.*
            Reporter: Joakim Knudsen
            Priority: Critical


I'm using the "last stable version" of Apache Sanselan 0.97 in an Android 
project (app). I have not upgraded to Commons Imaging yet, since the website 
says there is no stable release yet. Meanwhile, there are bugs in Sanselan. 

If I run the [sample code method 
WriteExifMetadataExample.changeExifMetadata|http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/sanselan/trunk/src/test/java/org/apache/sanselan/sampleUsage/WriteExifMetadataExample.java?p=820841]
 on an image, which updates the Apterture and GPS tags, the resulting image 
fails to validate (through Phil Harvey's ExifTool software):

{{> exiftool.exe -validate -error -warning -a "..\20171030_21481_COPY.jpg"

Warning                         : [minor] Odd offset for IFD1 tag 0x011b}}

I need some advice on how to proceed here. Since Sanselan does not appear to do 
what it should (even on very basic metadata editing), am I correct to assume 
that the current version of Commons Imaging does a better job? :-)
