Refer to the article "Create SD Card in Android Emulator and copy files into, in Eclipse, Emulator and DDMS" to copy a JPG file with Exif into SD Card. And also, you have to update the program code with your own path and file name.
Create a Android Application, AndroidExif, with the following setting.
Project Name: AndroidExif
Build Target: Google APIs/Platform 2.0/API Level 5
Application name: AndroidExif
Package name: com.exercise.AndroidExif
Create Activity: AndroidExif
Min SDK Version: 5
Modify the layout file, main.xml, to assign id on the TextView.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Modify the code, AndroidExif.java, to implement our Activity to read Exif.
package com.exercise.AndroidExif;
import java.io.IOException;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.media.ExifInterface;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class AndroidExif extends Activity {
TextView myTextView;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
myTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textview);
//change with the filename & location of your photo file
String filename = "/sdcard/DSC_3509.JPG";
try {
ExifInterface exif = new ExifInterface(filename);
ShowExif(exif);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
Toast.makeText(this, "Error!",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
private void ShowExif(ExifInterface exif)
{
String myAttribute="Exif information ---\n";
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_DATETIME, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_FLASH, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_GPS_LATITUDE, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_GPS_LATITUDE_REF, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_GPS_LONGITUDE, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_GPS_LONGITUDE_REF, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_IMAGE_LENGTH, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_IMAGE_WIDTH, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_MAKE, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_MODEL, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_ORIENTATION, exif);
myAttribute += getTagString(ExifInterface.TAG_WHITE_BALANCE, exif);
myTextView.setText(myAttribute);
}
private String getTagString(String tag, ExifInterface exif)
{
return(tag + " : " + exif.getAttribute(tag) + "\n");
}
}
