Title: C# Xamarin implementation
Post by: Mr87 on August 23, 2016, 07:49:14 AM
Hey ExifTool

As Xamarin did not make any tools for writing Exif information, I think it will be a god idea to make this one as a NuGet package for C# / Xamarin
But I can't find the source code, so I want to know, if that is available somehow?

I you are asking about the ExifTool source code.  Yes, it is available in the full distribution.

Hi Phil;

Just to clarify for myself, I had downloaded the current Windows EXE version to use for command line. However, I'm blown away by this product and are you saying you have ported this product as a .Net C# code that can be used with .Net (Either server side ASP or client side Xamarin)?
If not, I think you should and secondly charge for it, to pay for the development and growth of such great product.

But for the time being "Thank You" for producing such great tool!!!

There are a few examples of .net wrappers for ExifTool here (https://exiftool.org/index.html#related_prog).  I didn't make these.  They just call the ExifTool executable from C#.
