        <div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Hello
          Michael,</div>
        <div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br>
        </div>
        <div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Thanks for
          your e-mail.  I tried something close to your code.  Your code
          does not compile but the following does (t is a pointer to
          Tag):</div>
        <div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br>
        </div>
        <div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">
          <div class="gmail_default">            TagLib::StringList
            valList ("Beethoven");</div>
          <div class="gmail_default">            TagLib::PropertyMap
            pmap = t->properties();</div>
          <div class="gmail_default">            pmap ["COMPOSER"] =
            valList;</div>
          <div class="gmail_default">            t->setProperties
            (pmap);</div>
          <div class="gmail_default">            f->save();</div>
          <div class="gmail_default"><br>
          </div>
          <div class="gmail_default">I ran the above code on mp3, flac,
            and m4a files and it did not change or insert a COMPOSER
            tag, it just silently failed to do what I wanted.  However,
            the following did change the TITLE tag:</div>
          <div class="gmail_default"><br>
          </div>
          <div class="gmail_default">
            <div class="gmail_default">            TagLib::StringList
              valList ("Beethoven");</div>
            <div class="gmail_default">            TagLib::PropertyMap
              pmap = t->properties();</div>
            <div class="gmail_default">            pmap ["TITLE"] =
              valList;</div>
            <div class="gmail_default">            t->setProperties
              (pmap);</div>
            <div class="gmail_default">            f->save();<br>
            </div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
          </div>
          <div>So my conclusion is that the creators of taglib just
            never finished the code to insert and edit any but the five
            or six most common tags.</div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    That conclusion is definitely wrong; I am myself using taglib to
    read and write Composer tags on a daily basis. :-) I don't have a
    clue what's the problem in your case ...<br>
