Error while interpreting EXIF data #10

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Today I got an error report from a user:

Using FxIF on the flower photo on http://www.ephotozine.com/photo/1721294 the 
program says 'Error while interpreting EXIF data.  EXIF meta data shown might 
not be complete.  Please report this problem with an example image.'

The image contains an Exif Interoperability Offset Tag which points to the 
start of the whole IFD (so biting its own tail). So FxIF runs circles until 
maximum number of recursions reached and bailing out.
I added a detection for such cases to prevent simple loops.
