Fix ClassCastException when parsing Apple metadata of unexpected type #589

Closed mveunen closed 2 years ago

mveunen commented 2 years ago

Sometimes the Apple metadata is stored as a String. This fix will prevent a ClassCastException

We have found a few images where the JPG contained metadata as String instead of Bytes/Longs:. These images were created using an iPhone 7 or 8 with an unknown iOS version.

Examples of the metadata as String: bplist00ÔUflagsUvalueUepochYtimescaleQ1]3448599201458Q0Z1000000000#-/=? and bplist00ÔUflagsUvalueUepochYtimescaleQ1]3408834508875Q0Z1000000000#-/=?

Also if you're able to share an image that reproduces this problem, it would be helpful.

Sorry, that was automatically done by my IDE. It should be better after the last commit

Unfortunately I cannot share the images we have due to legal issues.
